I know you’ve been a bit worried, Grimmsters (I admit I was a little bit worried, too), but today we got the news we’ve been waiting for: Grimm has been renewed for its sixth season!!! It’s a truly GRIMMTASTIC day!!!
Jennifer Salke, President, NBC Entertainment, made the announcement today:
We absolutely love what our producers and cast have accomplished over the past five seasons. They have created a whole new world of creatures and have a truly devoted fan base. We can’t wait to see what comes next.
I completely agree with Jennifer, and I’m sure you do, too!
Add to that, these ratings! This season, “Grimm” originals are averaging a 1.7 rating in adults 18-49 and 6.4 million viewers overall in “live plus seven day” results from Nielsen Media Research. “Grimm” is one of the most time-shifted series on the broadcast networks, growing by an average of +90% in adult 18-49 rating (from a 0.91 to a 1.73) and more than 2.4 million viewers overall (3.9 million to 6.4 million) going from “live plus same day” to “live plus seven day” Nielsens.
I like that they now count the plus seven days. Here’s hoping they’ll also start counting Twitter TV scores, because a lot of us are on every week, live-tweeting about Grimm! So now we know we’ve got more time to find out:
- What is going to happen with Black Claw?
- Where is Diana?
- What does the Stick of the Keys do?
- What’s going to happen with Adalind now that her powers are back?
- What will Renard do with his new political power?
- Will Eve continue to transform?
- Where in the world is Trubel?
- Will Wu turn into a Werewolf, errr Wuwolf?
- Will Rosalee and Monroe face more trials from the Wesen community – and will they consider having a child?
- Will Hank ever get some happiness?
- And last but not least – what will Nick do with all of the ongoing turmoil in his life?
I sure don’t have any answers – yet! – but I’m thrilled we’ve got another season to get more!
