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.

Wouldn’t it kind of make sense that Monroe and Rosalee are having twins or whatever? I mean, most animals have litters, and that seems like something Wesen might also do. I think it’s probably more surprising that we haven’t seen Wesen multiples before.

I can only imagine the look Monroe and Rosalee would give anyone who called their children a “litter.” I would just back away slowly and let the combined wrath of the sweater-clad nerds-in-love of Team Grimm descend upon that unfortunate soul. xD

I think it probably doesn’t work the same way for Wesen as it does for animals. Rosalee had two siblings but they were different ages. Monroe, as far as we know, has no siblings at all. Lt. Orson had two brothers and Angelina had two brothers, but there was no suggestion of twins or triplets anywhere there, either.

The way Bud talks about his family implies he has several kids, and somehow I always headcanoned that he had between 5 and 7 kids all together, but I don’t know that we’ve ever gotten a concrete number so it could be as few as two. And we saw a rabbit-Wesen not too long ago who had only two children, and rabbits are known for multiplying like…well, rabbits.

So I don’t know if it’s something that makes sense because they’re Wesen necessarily. It could just be luck of the draw.
