That said, I still like the show and think it has some merits. Generally, I like it because of its potential and for some of the nice one-liners. Some of the best scenes don't have Stiles or Derek in it.
And before you write me off as, "Well you're level-headed because you don't ship Sterek." Ummmm... I ship everything in that show. Unless it's with Peter or Gerard. They can go die cold and alone with blue balls. But generally? No, I can ship so it's not that.
I think a lot of people recognize Teen Wolf isn't a masterpiece. They may not rip into it like I do but that can definitely acknowledge that it's not perfection. The thing is? They like it despite that.
And, hello, shippers? They obsess about their ship. No freaking duh! This happens in every fandom. I don't know why you expect Teen Wolf to be any different.
So, yeah, the problem with your fandom? It's not the "new people expecting a different show" or "idiots who don't recognize how bad/good it is." The problem with your fandom is that it's a fandom. It's unstable and weird and uncontrollable by design. It also doesn't help that the show targets a younger audience and really plays up the fanservice. Don't blame the fandom for being the precise thing the show was meant to bring in.
So I don't know man, what were you hoping for?

(Anonymous) 2013-03-26 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)Yeah, after watching the show I was pretty surprised that Sterek was the fandom ship and the lack in anything else. Everyone in that show is so shippable. It's ridiculous. And sad that fandom doesn't work with that.

Maybe season three will change that? Who knows, really.
