The Ink-Pot and the Palette

Peter delivers that whole thing about "Christian names" curing a werewolf. Now, Stiles isn't a werewolf and if they make him one I will never forgive them, but that bit was so weird and not really part of traditional werewolf lore that it might as well have had a little flashing arrow pointing at it saying, "THINK ABOUT FIRST NAMES."

Perhaps I'm over-fanning it.

My feeling about the Stiles characterization is that it's the most fortuitous, brilliant piece of casting, the perfect blend of actor and role--they stair-step each other upward. I don't know what it's like to be in a TV writing room, but can't you just imagine how satisfying it would be to hear the producers say, "The audience LOVES this kid--give him more lines," and then to write those lines and watch him deliver them?
