New drama series inspired by the classic Grimm's Fairy Tales.Portland homicide Detective Nick Burkhardt (David Giuntoli, "Turn The Beat Around") discovers he is descended from an elite line of criminal profilers known as "Grimms," charged with keeping balance between humanity and the mythological creatures of the world.
As he tries to hide the dangers of his new found calling from his girlfriend, Juliette Silverton, (Bitsie Tulloch, "quarterlife"), and his partner, Hank Griffin (Russell Hornsby, "Lincoln Heights"), he becomes ever more entrenched in the ancient rivalries and alliances of the Grimm world.
With help from his confidant, Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell, "Prison Break"), a reformed Grimm creature himself, Nick must navigate through the forces of a larger-than-life mythology, facing off with Hexenbiests, Blutbads and all manner of ancient evils, including royal lines dating back to the original profilers themselves, The Grimm Brothers. Reggie Lee ("Persons Unknown") and Sasha Roiz ("Caprica") also star.

Tak lah supernatural sangat, in fact Burkhardt yang jadi Grimm tu takdak lar power sangat, cuma dia ada diberikan buku oleh auntie nya yang terangkan mengenai mahkluk supernatural dan bagaimana untuk mengalahkan makjluk tersebut. Mhakulk supernatural tu pun kalau nak di ikutkan manusia biasa jer, cuma golongan Grimm dan between mahkluk tu jer yang tahu each other. Ynag beshnya every episode dia akan ada new creature dan yang lawaknya partner Burkhardt didalam melawan mahkluk supernatural tu, Monroe juga adalah mahluk supernatural tapi sudah insaf dari nak membuat kejahatan.

Tak semua nya jahat, ada jugak yang separuh jahat, sedikit baik, baik + jahat, penakut dan macam macam lagi. Kalau yang baik sesangat rasanya tak ada kot except for Monroe. Cuma mostly creature tu memang terlibat ngan kes kes polis sebab tu Burkhardt boleh terserempak ngan mereka hehehe

After a case of breaking and entering has one of the intruders go missing, Nick and Hank talk to a mysterious family whose cultural background blurs the line of right and wrong. The family is, in actuality, a family of bear-like creatures who engage in a ceremonious right of passage in which they hunt humans—in this case, the two intruders. Nick convinces the father (Currie Graham) to help find the boys and save the family's prey. Meanwhile, Nick tasks Monroe with the safeguarding Aunt Marie (Kate Burton), who was almost killed the night prior by a hexenbiest (Claire Coffee). Monroe stops two people in the boiler room who were sent to kill Marie, but goes overboard and rips off one of arms of the attackers. As Monroe calls Nick to tell him, a Reaper assassin dressed as a priest attempts to kill Marie, only to be killed by her. However, she dies anyway of an apparant heart attack as a result of struggling with and killing him. Marie's last breath is used to tell Nick to find the bad ones and stop them. Nick moves the trailer, which holds all Grimm secrets, and grieves for Marie's passing as he begins his hunt.
