so it's two in the morning and I don't know what to do with myself because Teen Wolf and then I see this post and just. it gives me hope and brightens my day so I can see a silver lining at the end of this. at least I'm not the only one with quite an amount of feelings re: an MTV program. still putting all the blame on you for being so invested in this show right now but I won't complain as long as it feels this intense.
god, I am in a constant love/hate!relationship with Jeff Davis because this is dancing on tiptoes on the thin line between genius (I think faceless Jackson&his real parents indeed has got to be a season highlight!) and utter ridiculousness (the not Stiles-kind) and I can't help to dance the dance with this freakin show.
also how have you not been digging team!fail pack yet?! I mean Nikki! they have their own uniform! their housing situation is ridiculous left right and center! they get to do some of the worst actions/have got some of the worst lines in the show! they have Derek!they even have backstories and feelings mercifully being unraveled eventually! what's there not to love?
yes. what I meant to say with this comment was that I'm always more than happy to read your post-episode evaluations and that I like your way of thinking. as if you didn't already know that.
i'm so sorry! okay, i am mostly sorry for having dragged you down with me. but you're right. the show has moments of genuinely good television. it's shocking and encouraging and you want more! then you realize you have to actually watch teen wolf some more in order to get it. i'm working on a theory of why the show works for me that relates the phenomena of cities who route for their historically losing team with fever. it's taking some time and thought but that's what it feels like to me.
and to answer your question team fail!pack is incredibly lame! it was probably erica and issac flouncing through the school that did it for me. i know most of it is due to pacing issues that come with a 13 episode series. you don't really have the time to flesh out story lines, scenes, or characters* but these guys were seriously underdeveloped and served as useless props until episode 6ish. then the show gave them some semblance of a purpose and i decided i could spend time liking them. they didn't exist just to die you see. now i can embrace the lame and love!
*which makes me think teen wolf: the director's cut would be the citizen kane of its generation** ** i am totally joking... or am i?
Keep on working on that theory, it already sounds pretty plausible to me!
team fail!pack is incredibly lame! Good thing you didn't hear the noise I just made. I mean I had a thing for Derek them right from the start so I can somehow relate and understand you, that strutting through the corridors scene was painful to watch as it was one of their utter nonsense scenes, but props? My tender heart begs to differ! (Well, it kind of doesn't as your telling the truth, but team socio-pack needs all the love it can get so I'll be here standing my ground against all odds.)
Also, I wish I could believe you on the 'they don't exist merely to die' front but somehow I have the really bad feeling that we're not going to see the four of them in season 3 /SEASON THREE WITH TWENTYFOR EPISODES HOORAY SERIOUS CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!!/. My spidey senses are rubbish when it comes to this but I don't think Boyd and/or Isaac will make it through the season finale. I think Erica is pretty safe, they made us believe she died once already, they wouldn't kill her off now (insert here: Jeff Davis' maniac laughter at my errors, should I be wrong) but Boyd and Isaac. Like you're experiencing it, people are starting to feel for them. And though I gladly take that sentiment because of fic reasons, I think this could lead to a minor shocker at the end of this season. ... ugh, how are there only four more episodes and so much mess left to solve?!
