The show is entertaining but already I'm getting bored with the main weekly plots because they are all basically the same. Someone's murdered or kidnapped by a Weson and Nick and Hank chase them down where they usually end up killing them in self-defense. In short, these episodes are really not too different from any police show out there except that the bad guy is also a Weson.
At any rate, to me, such plots are just fillers for the current main sub-plots of which there are 2, the Nick/ Renard/Juliette love triangle and the blossoming romance between Monroe and Rosalee -- the first being more prominent than the other. The Nick/Juliette thing is really starting to sizzle now but, on the other hand, it's making poor Nick look like a real loser/cuckhold? lol ... not good for the main character of the show.
But here are a few changes I'd like to see done to this show to make it more interesting.
--- Kill off Juliette and find a pretty Weson for Nick to fall in love with who can act.
--- Make Renard a little more sinister than he is right now.
--- Produce more episodes that fill us in more on Renards' family, the Royals.
--- They should also show flashbacks to earlier era's having to do with the Templars and the Chinese all the way back to ancient Tibet.
--- Have those flashbacks to those earlier times in history occur in every episode. The aim would be to capitalize more on the mythology depicted in this show. Even flashbacks to the Nazis and their involvement with those coins, the Weson's, the Grimms and so on would be very entertaining too.
--- Show a division in the Weson demographic where the evil ones are actively seeking to take over the world with the good ones trying to subvert that. Maybe the bad Wesons could even have some ET's who are helping them do that too.
--- The good ones should be working with Monroe as their leader who in turn is helping out Nick and Hank to subvert any new plot by the bad Weson's to further their agenda.
--- IOW's, the "police show" aspects of each episode should tie in directly to the evil agenda being carried out by the "bad" Wesons.
--- Does all of this sound familiar? Yes, because it is not unlike the ongoing narrative presented by David Icke concerning the Reptilians and the kinda thing we saw going on in "V".
--- But the main characters of this show should be Renard, Monroe and Nick... in that order.
