I’ve made my peace with Grimm ending, but after this episode I need a Russell Hornsby/Reggie Lee buddy cop comedy.

Right? I need it like breathing. I would settle for literally any buddy cop comedy featuring those two actors, of course, because it would be brilliant…but I would ~~possibly kill a man~~ really love to see a Hank/Wu spin-off, specifically.

The pilot could take place a few months after the events of the Grimm finale, and show Wu’s first case as a full-fledged detective and Hank’s new partner.

They deal with new cases each week, some Wesen, some regular. We could get actual full backstories for both of them as time goes on and learn even more about the Grimm world. Whichever other characters survived the finale very occasionally make cameos, like maybe they call Monroe and Rosalee to get some info on a new Wesen they’ve never seen before.

New characters would be introduced, including more members of the Portland PD, their new captain (a badass no-nonsense lady of course), and possibly a wacky CI or two. Wu and Hank would become best friends and develop their amazing chemistry as they help each other deal with Portland, the emotional fallout from the end of Grimm, and life in general. There might be a mytharc, there might not…I don’t really care.

It could be called Weird Portland.

Do you think Grimm is going to kill off Hank? Rusell wasn’t in the picture for the last day of filming for season 5 and a main character is supposed to be be dying this season aren’t they?

Hi Anon – Admin Liz here.

I really hope they don’t kill off Hank because he’s been with us since season one, and I, personally, absolutely adore him. Russell not being in the wrap photo doesn’t necessarily mean he was killed off – I think they’d actually make a point to include him if that was the case. He may just not have been around when it was taken.

Every year there are rumors that a main character is going to be killed off, and we’ve come close few times, but I try to not let those rumors stress me out until something actually happens.

Hi Anon! Liza chiming in as well.

Every season so far has indeed ended with a member of the main cast (Nick, Hank, Monroe, Rosalee, Juliette, Sean, and Wu) seemingly dead, nearly dead, or in mortal peril. In season one, it was Juliette. In season two, it was Nick. In season three, it was Renard. In season four, it was Juliette again. And thus far all of those characters are still around (even if some of them don’t go by the same name).

So to me, I’m fine with Hank ending up in mortal peril like so many other characters have, just as long as they don’t try to “raise the stakes” by breaking tradition and killing him off permanently.

I feel it would be a huge slap in the face to have the first main cast death that sticks be one of only two characters of color in that main cast. Particularly a Black man and particular right now, with all the outrage over how many PoC, female, and queer characters have been killed off recently on TV, to say nothing of it happening against a backdrop of increased public hate speech towards these groups and unceasing police violence against PoC, especially Black men and women.

So…I really really hope they won’t kill Hank off but I’m also really worried that they will.
