Teen Wolf S03E06.

I dunno really how to feel about this episode. It suggests two paths for the series. One is the suggestion that a new paranormal force is on the loose, the other suggests we're basically doing season two again.

On the one hand, as much as widening the lore sounds exciting, a big part of what sets Teen Wolf apart and makes it work so well is picking one monster and building off of them, so if they are gonna add new things into the mix, I hope that doesn't leave Teen Wolf swimming in a sea of mediocrity like so many other urban fantasy shows.

The other possibility, although providing a nice sense of continuity, would suggest Lydia is about to have exactly the same character arc as season two, which just feels like bad writing by writers I know haven't ran out of steam. So what the hell is this shit?

Still, the greatest charm of the show is the characters, portrayed by fantastic actors and held up by brilliant dialogue. Whenever I feel like I'm disappointed with the show, because of the weak action or whatever else, two characters have a conversation that is more epic than any werewolf clash and the show redeems itself.
