Re: Teen Wolf babble, here I come

I'm really placing my hope in the double-order of episodes. Throughout S2, and to some extent even S1, the pacing was so bizarre--whole minutes wasted on Scott and Allison making out, and then the super-rushed plot points, so-economical-they're-invisible, crammed into the remaining time. [personal profile] vampirefan and I have been doing a THIRD watching of select S2 episodes and I'm finally able to put the plot pieces together.

(And, as with Supernatural, those plot pieces don't fit together very elegantly. I was terribly spoiled by Joss Whedon, really.)

A lot of this could be age/generation. The speed of storytelling in Teen Wolf exceeds that of (say) The West Wing or The X-Files by as much as those shows outpaced Andy of Mayberry and Perry Mason. I just wasn't bred to that kind of pacing.

Thanks for the movie rec!
