Grimm season 1
Wow, it took me more than a year to crawl though it. The concept is good, the visuals are... somewhat good but the characters!
Main characters' bull-headedness gets him into trouble more than once and yet he refuses to consider that maybe he's not the smartest guy around here. That culminates into his treatment of his girlfriend who he tries to protect yet refuses to explain why he wants her to do things.
That's exacerbated by the fact that she's actually portrayed as a strong, smart woman who figures stuff out. And I don't mean other characters saying that about her, I mean it's actually shown on-screen. And yet!
I'm not very eager to watch further, especially considering the note on which the first season ended. There are only three recurring female characters to about a dozen males. And there's also the fact that the most awesome, ass-kicking character appeared only to die - a fate that I'm afraid will be repeated by the character that appeared in the finale.
