Teen Wolf, Season One
So, over on ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
het_reccers, blithers posted several always-a-girl!Stiles/Derek fics, which I read, and loved, and I decided to give Teen Wolf another shot.
So, random thoughts on the first season:
You know how everyone says Stiles is the heart of this show? Totally true. He gets most of the best lines, too.
I'm not yet sold on Lydia - she oozes artifice and I'm not sure yet if that is a conscious choice on the actress' part or just bad acting. I'm looking forward to season two, because I didn't like Caroline until the second season of TVD, so we'll see if I fall in love with Lydia during the whole Lydia/Peter arc. I DO know that I am totally not into Jackson/Lydia. I can't stand pairings where the girl dumbs herself down to keep the dude secure.
I love that Allison did not make a huge deal out of Lydia kissing Scott. I feel like on just about any other show that would have lead to a friendship break-up and Lydia having to grovel to get Allison's friendship back.
I still love Kate Argent and her unrepentant psychotic self. Also, Kate/Derek is one of the few bad girl/good boy pairings that I really viscerally ship.
I also love Allison Argent (so allerative! Like she's a super-heroine!) and her amazing, amazing hair.
Basically, Argent ladies for the win (we train our daughters to be leaders).
Just fact-checking, Stiles' mother died of cancer, right, and Scott's dad just left?
Okay, so, show of hands, how many of my flist watch this show and who intends to watch the third season?
Also, does anyone know of the really great Kate and Allison fanvid in which the vidder was like, 'I swear I didn't mean to make this seem inappropriate, it's the show's fault'?

I got caught up at the end (or right after?) season 2, so I'll be watching "live" for the first time come season 3. I adore Stiles the mostest, I'm sold on Lydia but it's 60% because she's stupidly pretty and 40% because I always love the supposedly vapid mean girl who turns out to have the potential to be so much more. Never liked her and Jackson either, or Jackson at all period. And I hated Kate, way too cartoon-villainy, but I'm with ya on the super-hero status of Allison and it warms my old Buffy-loving heart to see a popular teen show with an awesome asskicking lady for this generation.
