POSTS TAGGED: Russell Hornsby

“And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.” Eric and Baron Samedi are having dinner and the Baron says that he will be “ready” by tomorrow. Eric says that he would love to see what Baron does and Baron agrees to show him. Eric calls in his lackey boy and Baron woges in a [...]

“Papa Ghede is a handsome fellow in his hat and coat of black. Papa Ghede is going to the palace! He’ll ear and drink when he gets back!” This is part one of the two-part season finale and it was really good. At least good in the sense that some loose ends are being tied [...]

Finally a redhead that I don’t want to kill on the show.  “Tell me O’ Muse, from whatsoever source you may know them.” We’re in a house. Fk. It’s Juliette’s house and she’s staring at the cat scratches on her hand. She says to herself “I’m not going to a doctor for a cat scratch.” [...]

This is going to be pictureless. Which I completely understand will mean that a lot less people will read it… but I can give you a ton of excuses, or you can just assume that anything excuse I give would probably be a lie. The truth is that I’m a specially trained FBI analyst and [...]

“The demon came home, and he declared that the air was not clear. I smell the flesh of man.” Open with lady taking pics of hot and steamy rocks… make that a video… or she’s talking to herself as she describes the volcanic rocks… she uses a lot of rock words that I don’t understand, [...]

Just a note that last Friday’s Grimm was preempted by the kick-ass work of all the law enforcement groups that took care of Boston. Although I would have loved to see Sgt. Wu work his magic there too. It will be played this coming Friday, instead.  I was going to recap the capture of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, [...]

I really liked this episode. Hopefully my recap will live up to it, because it’s one where it may have been more interesting to watch, than it will be to read about. We start “Six Months Ago” and a husband and wife are getting ready for a formal evening out, but the husband is screaming [...]

“Then he seized his left foot with both hands in such a fury that he split in two.” Opening scene is an old copy of Alice in Wonderland being opened and the title page being ripped out. Then we’re at a launch party for Black Forest 2. A lot of young people are dancing while [...]

This quote is from The Book of Doppelgangers… and from what I can gather, the book has nothing to do with the storyline in this week’s episode. A cool old car pulls up to a church. Inside the car, the driver seems to be having a headache. He walks into a group meeting where a [...]

“So the animals debated how they might drive the robbers out, and at last settled on an idea.” Some of these quotes are getting way to heady for me. I used to recognize them, at least vaguely… now I have to Google them and still don’t understand them. Still at the apothecary, Nick isn’t awake yet [...]

So who besides me has missed this poor excuse of an actress? It’s been a while, so if you have forgotten where we are, please scan over some of the past few recaps. Basically, Juliette is a snore but Renard loves her. Hank is finally in on the secret. Rosalee is sitting vigil with her dying [...]

So, after much build-up, we have reached the mid-season finale… with promises of big reveals and even bigger egos… but personally, I feel let down. My fav part of the episode was the many (read, two) faces of Juliette… which will be provided throughout the recap.  We are back at the apothecary with Monroe, Renard, [...]

 “The beast was simply the Call of the Wild personified … which some natures hear to their own destruction.” The episode starts with a flashback of Hank during his early years on the job. He’s got a little Samuel L. Jackson, from Jackie Brown, sideburns going on… and I like it. He arrives at a [...]

Hello Gasmii Grimm fans… This was an all-Hank, all-the-time-except-when-Juliette-ruined-a-few-scenes episode. We start with seeing Hank, 7 years ago, as a uniformed officer, responding to a call for a loud fight at some house. He and his partner find two brothers… one dead, the other not quite. Hank catches the killer and assists in having him [...]

“And branded upon the beast, the mark of his kin. For none shall live whom they have seen.” Nick is sleeping on the couch having a bad dream about a missing girl. The image of a black girl keep floating through his thoughts as he tosses and turns. Then quickly, a hand lands on his [...]

 ”On many a dark night, people would see her walking along the riverbank and crying for her children.”  The story behind this episode is actually very interesting and a great Halloween story. There are a couple versions… feel free to check them out here (AFTER you read my recap.) A father and son are walking [...]

I found out that I didn’t know how to spell decathlon… so the likelihood that I’ll ever be in an academic decathlon are slim. Politically correct panel. We begin at a school that is holding an academic decathlon trial. One boy, Pierce Higgins, is clearly the smartest… he also appears to have a way-too-involved mother in the audience. [...]

I thought of making myself a beautiful wooden marionette. It must be wonderful, one that can dance, fence, and turn somersaults… Four insanely smart high school kids answer questions that I don’t even understand. One mother is clearly too invested. Nick and Juliette go to an awards dinner, at which Cpt. Renard is speaking.  The kids go out [...]

Nick and Juliette see fireworks from their kitchen window and Nick tries to help her remember telling him some lame story about a song her uncle used to sign to her. She dramatically pauses and then claims that she, too, remembers telling him this story. She goes on to tell him that the last thing [...]

Nick and Juliette see fireworks and he tries to help her remember. She remembers telling him that. She laughs. They kiss and hug. She says it’s all coming back to her. She says she remembers him telling her about his ancestors who could see things and that he could too. The keep kissing. It was a [...]

Welcome back Gasmii Grim Fans. Sadly, their is no Wu in Team. Or in this entire episode. WHERE ARE WU? We find ourselves at a Portland airport as we see a man and woman step off a private plane, and the woman, let’s call her Bad Bangs, immediately places a call to Renard. “Hello, my [...]

After a brief hiatus, it was nice to have Grimm back to its normal cop-like show… There was a little back story, but overall the episode just felt comfortable to watch and easy to follow if you’re a new Grimm fan. We open at a bar where Nick is meeting up with refrigerator repairman. The repairman realizes [...]

Happy Friday, Gasmis. I am very sorry that I am so late with getting this recap posted. I have a whole bunch of excuses, and believe me, they were good ones… but why bother… time to get to the recap. In this season’s fourth episode, Quill, we start with a parks and recreation employee sitting [...]
