Do you have strong opinions about who would win in a fight in the Grimmverse? Well then get ready for round 2 of our Grimm Ultimate Fighter Poll!
Starting this Friday, September 1st, we’ll be hosting the second round of our 3-round poll to find out once and for all who is the Ultimate Fighter of the Grimmverse. This round will be 5 polls with 2 options each.
Polls will be posted at 10am Eastern Standard Time and run for 1 week. To participate, just put in your vote and then reblog to give us the biggest sample size possible. Once all the polls are closed, we’ll announce the winners of each poll and the posting schedule for round 3!
If you don’t want to see the polls, or if you want to track the polls, we will be using the tag “grimm poll” for your trackers or blacklists!
Grimm Ultimate Fighter Poll: Round 1 Results
Results are in! The final results of each poll are listed below.
Poll 1: Sean Renard won with 92.6% of 54 votes total. He blew the competition away!
Poll 2: Nick Burkhardt won with 44.3% of 61 votes total. Some of you questioned how likely he was to win in a fight with Kelly in the notes, rightfully so!
Poll 3: Diana Schade Renard won with 60% of 50 votes. And that’s fair! I certainly wouldn’t fight her.
Poll 4: Juliette Silverton a.k.a. Eve won with 71.2% of 52 votes. As she should!
Poll 5: Monroe won with 43.1% of 58 votes. But a lot of you were betting he would lose a fight to his wife (and I kinda agree tbh).
Poll 6: Martin Miesner won with 46.2% of 52 votes. We miss you king!
Poll 7: Catherine Schade won with 42.1% of 38 votes. Good thing she wasn’t up against Kelly!
Poll 8: Alexander, our favorite ambassador from the Wesen Council, won with 51.5% of 33 votes. Which is fair, considering the competition!
Poll 9: Monroe’s mom Alice won with 38.1% of 42 votes. Makes sense to me!
On October 28th, 2011, the weird little show that could aired its first ever episode on NBC. It’s hard to believe, but the 10th anniversary of that day is almost upon us! To celebrate we’re doing 28 days of Grimm, and we want you to get involved!
So for the next 28 days, please tell us…
You can make a post or send an ask, and we’ll be answering and reblogging throughout the month! Just be sure to mention your ask is for the 28 Days of Grimm, and tag your posts with #28daysofgrimmversary so we can find them!
Last day Grimmsters! Who’s your favorite cast member?
Also, we’ll be checking the tag through the end of October, so if you wanted to participate but didn’t get a chance, feel free to do “make up days” and we’ll still see and reblog your posts!
Omg, I LOVE this question, although there are so many great locations to choose from that I also HATE this question, hahaha. I’ve lived in Portland for 24 years and absolutely adore this city, so many of the locations are meaningful to me.
My #1 choice has to be the St. John’s Bridge, which is the backdrop to many scenes on the show. The bridge is actually in way North Portland, and isn’t something that the characters would have much reason to be around, but it’s just such a gothic, atmospheric beauty, with the trees of Forest Park looming behind it – how could they not center it in the series? (It plays a central role in Colin Meloy’s Wildwood books as well.)
My #2 choice is the mysterious house from the pilot and the finale. (I’ve heard conflicting reports about its location, so I’ve never seen it myself.) There’s something primordial about this house that takes us right back to the original Grimm Fairy Tales. Because it hints back to the origin of the Grimm tales AND the origin of the Grimm series, it’s both enjoyably creepy and significant.Â
Weird fact: I drove my Nick and Juliette’s house a million times without ever realizing it was theirs. I only discovered it when I looked up the address online. It just never stood out to me somehow, which probably speaks to its authenticity – a lot of houses in Portland look like that.Â
Some other fave locations: In S1 E11 Tarantella, Nick and Monroe have coffee on a park bunch together in front of a 100yo building called Centennial Mills. The building has since been almost completely torn down, so this is a nice reminder. In S3 E3 A Dish Best Served Cold, the investigation centers around the old Bauerschwein-Blutbad feud in a real-life restaurant called The Raven and Rose. I actually had tickets to watch the episode live at the restaurant but didn’t feel good so I didn’t go (GAH!). S1 E15 Island of Dreams had a cool scene of an opium den kind of thing that was shot fairly close to where I lived at the time.Â
Wasn’t sure if this referred to something Monroe said or an actual character trait of his, but I’m going to go with the former. Even though we don’t see him playing the cello often, it speaks so much to Monroe’s internal struggle: it’s a dark, soulful instrument, which speaks to both his wild and civilized natures.Â
I love how it refers back to the beautiful, darkly romantic song from the closing credits. (Aside: I wish there was a 5-minute version of that closing song.)
