Dream chaser extraordinaire! Judy tends to be a tad sarcastic and kind of goofy! She is an avid admirer of all things supernatural, paranormal, celestial and mystical. She loves to read, write, and watches way too much TV. She enjoys many genres of film and music (and let's be honest, most music from the 80s). She also has a wicked sweet tooth. Cupcakes beware.

Grimm – “The Seven Year Itch” Review. Party Animal.

<i>Grimm</i> – “The Seven Year Itch” Review. Party Animal. 7

It’s entertaining and intriguing Wesen-centric episodes like “The Seven Year Itch” that make it even more bitter sweet that this is the final season of Grimm. This episode introduces us to a couple of new Wesen, one in particular that likes to pop up from the earth every seven years. I love how the writers channel Greek mythology in “The Seven Year Itch,” making me wonder if Dionysus was Wesen.

Just because it’s the final season doesn’t mean there isn’t room for new Wesen to be introduced. “El Cuegle” is quite the interesting Wesen.

But there are some other story lines playing out in the background that will leave you wondering about the future of some of our beloved Scooby Gang.
