Teen Wolf

I can't believe how much I enjoyed Teen Wolf! I originally thought it was a going to be a show aimed at teens but boy was I wrong. I'm an adult male and I enjoyed it so much more than I thought I would. It's just like any other good Superhero show but instead of a Superhero, it's a werewolf...but the premise is pretty much the same. I binged the whole thing straight through over the past few months and the only thing I'm upset about is that I put it off for as long as I did! The only problem is the last season isn't very good at all but still doesn't take away from the fact that's it's a very good show!

Look, lets be honest and admit that season1 Teen Wolf wasn't great, it showed signs of great humour, horror and was extremely inclusive in terms of some real life teenage themes. Again, it wasn't great but it showed potential.

Now after finishing it's third season, it is clear that, Teen Wolf has done something that not many shows have the guts to do, and that is, it has matured with its audience. The creator and producers behind the show have realized that people age alongside the show, that we are not the same people from season1 and thus they have enabled Teen Wolf to reach it's potential and beyond. Now we have fully fleshed out relationships, more adult and sexual themes (which c'mon everyone loves), some more suspenseful scenes with a fair amount of horror and still they have managed to include school into their lives consistently (something that is totally frustrating in so many TV shows). Plus the music on the show is awesome.

Don't give up after season 1, persevere because I guarantee that it will be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

OK first off I'm 36 and seen pretty much everything SciFi/Horror out there. Add to this I'm a fan of the original Teen Wolf (number 2 i mean what the hell was that) also watched the cartoon series which I enjoyed. Also I'm not a fan of much if anything this generation done by MTV. I avoided this show even though a few people said i should give it go. So I decided to keep it for a rainy day. It started raining yesterday and I'm already on season 2!! Brilliant, solid acting , great effects and fantastic casting around. Season 1 has drawn me in for keeps. I was expecting cheesey teen angst type stuff but no. Its dark, moody with just then right amount of humour. I've got to give a massive round of applause to whoever is in charge of music as it is amazing. One more thing ... Massive kudos to the guy playing Stiles, he is excellent. Seriously give this a go, you won't regret it. If you do blame me. I'll even give you my address so you can come round and kick my butt. Although you'll probably just want to pet my dog and admire my bottle cap collection.( I'm joking, I don't have a dog)

Happy viewing people

When I started watching the first episode, I didn't expect anything, cause I didn't know the actors nor what the story was going to be. At the end I realized it was quick, it had funny dialogues, it wasn't not pretentious and it was absolutely FUN! It's what was made to be! While Twilight is boring to death since it's kind of "ashamed" for dealing with Vampires and the fantasy world, by creating a non sense story as a fake background to hold the pretentious characters and to make it look serious, Teen Wolf is what Twilight fails to be, FUN! The character of Stiles is really funny and Dylan O'Brien I think delivered that role great. Tyler Posey is exactly was the people behind casting had in mind for Teen Wolf. The rest of the cast fulfills the whole team successfully.

Enjoy the show ;)

Like another reviewer has stated, when I first saw the trailer for Teen Wolf, I was totally uninterested. The only reason I watched the first episode was because it came on directly after the MTV movie awards and there was nothing else on TV. I was actually surprised by how good it was. The acting was good, the special effects weren't too cheesy, and there is something dark and edgy about it. I admit some parts of the plot are predictable, but then again, there are some things that flat out surprised me. The actor who plays Stiles is fantastic, and I think he is a big part of why I like the show. Also, Derek Hale's character isn't too bad on the eyes, either.

After all this talk about how this is a Twilight rip-off online, I have to say that I think it's unfair to compare this to Twilight. Let's be real, Twilight has horrible acting, and the acting in Teen Wolf is actually decent. And the plot is completely different in my opinion. In Twilight, the story surrounds Edward and Bella's relationship; In Teen Wolf, I think the story is more about Scott's transformation into being a werewolf and the challenges it brings him. Yes, Allison (his love interest) is a part of those challenges, but the story does NOT revolve around their relationship.

This show has a TON of potential, and I could definitely see them going above and beyond what they are doing now. But I am entertained for now and I will continue to watch the season until the end.

8/10
