Earlier this week we provided several clips and previews from the November 11th episode of “Grimm” on NBC, entitled “Beeware”, but one thing missing was a good look at the actual monster of the piece, and we have that for you today. Take a peek at guest star Nana Visitor as The Mellischwuler.

Visitor (who has appeared in “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine” and “Battlestar Gallactica”) is the “Queen Bee” of the Mellifer community. Mellifers are bee-like creatures that exist typically as part of a swarm, and in groups they operate with a hive mentality. They live in man-made life-size hives they build in the attics of houses, where they harvest their own apitoxin (bee venom). Mellifers are clarions – they send the warning call within the creature world.

“Beeware” Synopsis (Airing 11/11/11):
A SOCIAL MEDIA CRAZE DISGUISES A STRING OF BIZARRE MURDERS – The station is abuzz as Nick (David Giuntoli) and Hank (Russell Hornsby) are called to a case where an innocent flash mob results in a gruesome homicide. As Nick delves further into the investigation, he learns more about his unique family history and finds himself at odds when he and Hank are assigned to protect a dark character from his recent past. Bitsie Tulloch, Silas Weir Mitchell, Sasha Roiz, and Reggie Lee also star.

“Grimm” is a Universal Television and Hazy Mills production. The series was created by Stephen Carpenter, David Greenwalt, and Jim Kouf.
