So yeah, lets squee and rant over TV shows for a bit, shall we? All of it under big spoiler cuts to be safe.

"This show is supposed to be cheesy and ridiculous and over the top. Why are people complaining about the lack of realism and plot holes and whatnot? Don't they realise they are watching a show about teenaged werewolves on MTV?" -- This! omg

And I'm totally with you on Malia/Stiles. I love them together.

It so hilarious when people try to apply real life logic to shows like this, isn't it?

Sterek shippers are crazy and scary. I ship Sterek in fanfics, don't get me wrong, but I'm not invested in it happening on the show. But the way they break the fourth wall spooks me. Imagine if we asked Rowling in interviews when she was going to make H/D happen!

I finished wAtching Penny Dreadful, so I can read that bit now. I loved it so much. Vanessa for sure and Victor so much. All the things you said about him as well as his enormous heart. That he did eventually forgive Calliban after hearing his story sealed it for me. He's just such a beautiful character. I also loved Ethan. I really wish Dorian was better cast, though. The actor is so expressionless.

Vanessa and Victor are the most awesome, are they not? Ethan was rather cool too, a lot cooler than I thought he would be in the beginning but doesn't hold a candle to Victor. I totally agree with how wooden Dorian is. I wonder if it is because the actor is so bad, or if it was a directing decision.
