I tried to keep track of the times Scott blew someone off in favor of ~Allison~, but I lost count.

Did a Teen Wolf rewatch in preparation for season three, since continuity is so very, very important in this universe, and since it might disappear from Netflix tomorrow.  Anyway, I counted some common tropes just to see how many times they actually showed up in canon, and then some random commentary.  I was going to go episode by episode, but my notes were mostly "Why the hell does [character] do [something immeasurably stupid and inexplicable]?"  Anyhow, in the first two seasons of Teen Wolf:
  • Derek lurks: 25

  • Someone comes in/out a window: 9

  • Stiles lies to his dad: 8

  • Peter lurks: 7

  • Somebody reveals information they should have revealed about three episodes ago: 5 (though I think I seriously undercounted this one)

  • Harris rags on Stiles: 5 (one is quite extensive)

  • Scott tries to kill Stiles: 2

  • Stiles makes his dad eat something healthy: 2

  • Derek grabs Stiles: 2

  • Derek pushes Stiles up against a wall: 1

  • Derek tells Stiles to shut up: 1

  • Stiles calls Derek “sourwolf”: 1

So all that grabbing, wall-slamming, and sourwolf-ing in fic?  Perhaps overkill.

Assorted thoughts )

That's it; that's the show.

And, hypothetically, if someone didn't have cable and wanted to livestream a certain show that premieres on Monday, might she be able to find a link to that?
