Storyline
Nick Burkhardt, a promising Portland homicide detective, told nobody he gets visions of people 'transforming' into monsters when he looks at them. While investigating the murder and disappearance of two girls, he realizes it's a Grimm family gift, which passes from his aunt Marie Kessler when she is dying from cancer. She also gives him a mysterious key. Nick becomes her attacker's next target, but barely and wisely discretely uses his gift to track down the postman, who turns out a descendant of werewolf line, yet helps him find the violent monster.

Nick Burkhardt: Wait. What did you say you were?
Monroe: Blutbad. Vulgarized by your ancestors as "the big bad wolf." What, did you just get the books tonight?
Nick Burkhardt: You know about the books?
Monroe: Of course I know about the books. We *all* know about the books. You people started profiling us over 200 years ago. But as you can see, I am not that big, and I am done with the bad thing.

Wow. what a pilot. I was hooked from the very first scene, where a innocent young girl goes jogging and is attacked by some unknown creature! Made me jump! Cool! Then the main character David Giuntoli as Nick Burkhardt 'sees' strange things. Like normal people just changing into demons or something and then back to normal. Weird and scary at the same time. Great!
We as well as Nick begin to see he sees these things for a reason. His aunt played by the great Kate Burton(who for a minute I thought was another actress: Angela Pleasence, daughter of the late Donald Pleasence of the original Halloween franchise. Now that would have been interesting casting). tells him he has a blessing and a curse as one of the descendants of the famous Grimm and must protect a weird looking key that these entities are apparently are after. That he must protect at all costs. He being a detective will probably help as he has some training that will inevitably help him as he encounters weird people and creatures. As his partner, Russell Hornsby as Hank Griffin, he compliments the Nick character. Even helps him solved and resolved the 1st weird/supernatural case. He kinda of reminded me of the rapper Dr. Dre. For a minute I really thought it was him.
Everything was very serious and unnerving until we have the appearance of Silas Weir Mitchell comes on board as Monroe. It takes a comic turn out of nowhere and it really caught me off guard and I was somewhat disappointed at this point but then they kinda 'fix' it by keeping the comedy to a bare minimum. I guess i got really into it since it felt intense and scary and real. I guess I was hoping it would stay in that vein a la Millenuim or Supernatural. But all in all a great debut. Got me hooked. Can't wait to see the rest of the season. And see in what real direction there are going to go with it.
