Last month I provided a list of the winners and losers among the new dramas to debut this fall TV season. Among those winners were Unforgettable and Person of Interest (both on CBS) and Revenge (on ABC). Since that time all three dramas have been picked up by their respective networks for a full season. As for the losers, both …

The new NBC fairy tale series, GRIMM, premiered last week and by the looks of the numbers, it’s the new Friday night hit. While the stories are new and fresh, and the characters are interesting, as far as we’ve seen, there is one that stands out and threatens to become the “Grimm” sweetheart.

They took to telling these tales for entertainment, but when they could see how they enthralled their audiences, they decided to tame the stories and make them less frightening, so as to enchant the listener.
