  • She also played Nadine on General Hospital. She was a love interest for Nikolas. I loved her on there. Glad to see her getting more primetime work.

  • That’s crazy awesome, especially after they said she wasn’t returning this season! I’m really happy! I’m interested to know how she’s going about without powers! Just potions?

  • great news! loved this character since the beginning and hoped we would see more of her. I was worried when she left, but this make up for her absence. She can become a great “big bad” over the seasons :D

  • I figured they would. She brings the witchy magic aspect to the show that I like.

  • Not happy about this one. She’s good in small doses, but full time…I don’t think so.

    • A lot of fans were hoping she’s get promoted and she does add something extra to the show that I personally really like. So, I say YES! Season 2 of Grimm has been great so far and I think it’s only going to get better. Can’t wait for Friday!

  • Glad to here she is coming back and as a regular. She is a really good character actress and especially good on Grimm.

  • Oh that’s super interesting. Wonder where they’ll take her character. Maybe she’ll be the Spike of the series; the villain who reluctantly works with the goodguys.
    .
    Looking forward to watching. Also glad to see the continual increase of lady characters

  • YAY! She’ll always be cute nurse Nadine from General Hospital to me!

  • Prior to this point, Adalind’s apparent sole goal in life has been to do what Captain Renard wants her to do (she did seem completely infatuated with him). Now that she’s been de-hexened and been totally rejected by both him and her mother, what purpose does she have? She got a pretty sizable revenge on Nick by what she did to Juliette. Wouldn’t Nick like to, I don’t know, chop her head off if he ran into her again? Maybe Renard will take her back since he got all purified by Mother Dearest’s magic shirt-removing potion!

    • Agreed with your comment and thought it was funny, too!

  • Weird considering her arc basically ended already.

    Comment by Shaun – September 25, 2012 11:06 PM PDT  Reply To This Post

  • Well she is coming back for Revenge against Renard and our Grimm Family.

    Although Hank my want to keep sleeping with his gun because he is still the softest target.

  • this is awesome!

    Comment by omabin – September 26, 2012 01:00 AM PDT  Reply To This Post

  • I’m reserving judgment on this one. I found her to be a rather uninteresting character. Hope she’s better as a regular than she was as a guest star.

  • I wonder if she might be able to inherit her mother’s hexenbeist?

    Comment by Becca Porter – September 26, 2012 06:34 AM PDT  Reply To This Post

  • She currently has no powers, so what are they going to do with her? Is it strictly revenge against the Captain?

    Comment by Bob – September 26, 2012 07:52 AM PDT  Reply To This Post

  • This is good. I’ve always enjoyed her appearances and having her as a consistent member of the cast should be good for the overall plot development of the show. If I were to guess how her character might play out it would go something like this; Adalind will be a wild card. She will have her own agenda which is to get back at both Nick and Renard. She has chemistry with Nick which means they will be foils for each other but will eventually warm to each other and become romantically involved. She will be the bad girl on the path to redemption but will eventually die in a tragic way by sacrificing herself.

  • I’m sure they’ll find a way to get her powers back. I love her; I think she and Nick have great chemistry. I’m sure at some point they’ll probably even get together, since most shows tend to go the enemies to lovers route. And I think she looks so much like this season of Project Runway’s contestant Melissa. Whenever I watch PR I think “Hexenbeist!”

    Comment by Mikael – September 26, 2012 08:22 AM PDT  Reply To This Post

  • Love her! She’s like the female version of Spike. I, too, agree that she has great chemistry with Nick.

  • nice, love her

    Comment by William – September 26, 2012 03:42 PM PDT  Reply To This Post

  • Love her too. Adalind is a strong character. I can’t wait her to meet Renard.
