I think I remember David Giuntoli mentioning S5 had an open ending so they were glad it had been renewed for S6? So my guess is Black Claw continues onto the next season but we never know really I guess!

Hey there Anon – Admin Liz here. David’s right – Grimm’s formula tends to be that the season finale is about 3 eps long and ends in a major cliff hanger, followed by a sassy/unapologetic title card from the writers, and then the cliff hanger is resolved sometime in the first three episodes of the next season. That’d be hard to follow if we didn’t have season six. 

One would hope that if/when the show ends, they know with plenty of time so that they can properly wrap it up so that we don’t end up with a terrible cliff hanger and no answers. 

Here’s the thing about groups like Black Claw – they’re virtually impossible to eradicate. Think KKK or Nazis, or any number of similar groups. From a Grimm!verse standpoint, as long as the idea is there, the group will continue. I can’t imagine a situation where Team Grimm is able to fully dismantle BC, just make them go dark for a while. There will always be wesen who agree with what BC is preaching.

So, I guess what I’m trying to say, is that it seems plausible that Black Claw could become an underlying evil for the rest of Grimm’s lifespan, however many seasons that will be. But you’re right – we won’t know until it’s all over!
