it's one, two, three on the wrong side of the lee

I was going to watch Leverage, but Grimm turned out to be easier to find a torrent for, so hey, that's what I've been watching. I liked the first two episodes a lot.

The third, however, was about bees. And bee-people called Mellifers. And ARGH THE BEES WERE ALL WRONG AND BEES DO NOT WORK LIKE THAT. *cries for a while*

So yeah, I didn't really pay much attention to the plot of that ep, I was too busy cringing in horror :P But it's a fun show. I like Monroe especially, and the coroner is awesome. Although, she does appear to be the only woman in the entire police department, sooo.

Also, ohai Sam Adama. Nice to see you. Interesting career change, from assassin to police chief, but Portland is probably safer than Caprica City! Did you bring your husband with you?

ETA: "Notice the iris is fully dilated, nearly filling the eye completely." Um. That's the pupil, Coroner. Thanks for that.

ETA2: And that's not a toad. It's a frog.

WHERE IS THE SCIENCE RESEARCHER FOR THIS SHOW XD

Hmm! I was wary of Grimm because I'd given up on Supernatural a few seasons in, and it looked like Grimm might have a lot of the same problems with regards to women characters etc. (This isn't based on spoilers, just on what I know about the premise and the promo for the first episode, however.) If you're still enjoying it once you're a little farther in, I'll have to add it to my to-watch list! :D

If it makes you feel better, the German was all wrong, too. *g*
(I didn't watch the show, I just read hilarious reviews by fellow native speakers. Same reviewers said that that show is getting pretty interesting over the season.)

Uh oh, biology fail alerts! Bees, toad/frogs and iris/pupils! You'd think they could do something called 'research', wouldn't you? I mean, what else is wiki for?!! :D :D

Hmm, maybe they should hire you as a biology researcher - clearly they need a new one!!

Grimm is awesome! I started watching a few weeks ago and marathoned the whole season in about a week and a half. As a person who not only works with bees, but does research with swarm behavior, I was cringing during the bee episode too. Forgive the writers, though, because the rest of the show is so awesome it more than makes up for the biology!fail.
