Respect for the the dead
brueggemanntami23 December 2020
I love Egyptian art. However, I have always thought that displaying mummies is wrong. I live near a cemetery. If I went and started digging up the graves, I would be in a lot of trouble. So what makes it alright for archeologists to do it?

Just because they are old, the mummies are still people. Ancient cultures and their beliefs should be respected. Most of the Egyptian tombs have warnings on them not to disturb the dead. And rightfully so. Not for fear of hauntings, but because they should be allowed to rest in peace.

Would you want your family's bodies put out for public viewing? "Hey let's go visit Mom and Dad at the museum. They have even been unwrapped so that we can see their faces". Is that statement not a bit grotesque? So why is it fine when the dead body is a pharaoh? I have always found such things disturbing and disrespectful.

Fast forward...

...through all of Viktor's scenes. His face and voice is annoying. Let's hope one of those is part of the act.

Loving Grimm 👽👺👹
veadiva15 April 2024
I can't believe I missed the show in the original time back in 2014!! I am a big 👽sci-fi enthusiast and now I'm watching 👺👹Grimm on Comet digital TV which is just like SyFy on cable and I'm addicted!! My favorite is Wu and Adaline & Monroe of course!😉 and I found that there is historical references to certain Egyptian characters that are true and this is fantastic and what I love to do is find out where these actors are now so that I can pull them up on my computer I am so happy to have found Grimm and I can't see how I missed it years back and what channel was it on but I'll found it out!!!!!!!!

My least-liked episode, because of Nick et al's stupidity
txriverotter3 March 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Hank is the only one in this episode with any sense in the way to deal with what Wu saw. Nick is the worst. I absolutely despise him in this episode.

And I don't get the end of the previous episode either. Nick pretended he didn't see the Aswang, while Wu is standing there clearly scared out of his mind. If he'd just said "It's okay, we saw it too." I am only imagine how far that might've gone to help Wu.

Then visiting him in the hospital, Nick sits there with a stupid grin on his face saying inane crap, while Wu is clearly suffering. It makes you want to slap the dumb look right off Nick's face.

And I don't get the rest of their attitudes either. Monroe and Rosalee especially. Juliette is always arbitrary, but Monroe especially is sensitive. Rosalee can go either way.

I know the writers are trying to make extra story, but there's plenty with the main story lines. Why not make the extra or side-bit, Wu learning about everything a little bit earlier? Save him the visit to the psych unit.
