Isaac was the focus of that scene, but Scott was actually really well done there despite having one line. Great use of body language. Also, I didn't notice first time around but I think he's doing the pain-taking thing at the start of the scene before Deaton explains it to Isaac.

It's strange to me that in a compartmentalized sense, some things on Teen Wolf are just... exceptionally well done. It's just interspersed throughout a show that also has an immense amount of silly stuff. And more than that, a little bit of a red herring problem. The season finale could be the lead writer sitting in a chair trying to explain the answer to everything and he still wouldn't have enough time.

Possibly pushed by Derek, since the 'I have someone else in mind for you' hasn't come back otherwise - you'd expect it to be Scott, but there's been no hint of any attempt at that. Ah well, who knows. Maybe Sterek will happen. And it'll turn out the person Derek had in mind for Erika was Lydia. And then Isaac and Scott will capitalise on that aforementioned chemistry and Jackson will admit that he wants his bromance with Danny to be something more. Maybe.

Read some old spoiler chat that confirms Isaac won't die. That's good at least. Also this is totally random but I sometimes get major Wolf's Rain vibes from this show.

So Jeff Davis tweeted "an important clue about the finale," which is... some random key or some poo poo. Familiar? Totally confused? Somebody tracked down that it's... ... probably the the same key to Jackson's house that Lydia had during their conversation during the end of Venomous. Though personally I'm hoping it's actually Danny's key to Jackson's house, which makes sense because Gay Wolf so HE gets to do the LOOK INTO YOUR HEART AND REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE JACKSON poo poo instead of her, and anyway Davis has been throwing around redherring after redherring this season so why not?

# ? Aug 11, 2012 08:56 |

That's without a doubt the same key. Also, yeah, the biggest problem with Season 2 has been the amount of red herrings, but it was an overall improvement over the first season. Here's hoping that with 24 episodes Jeff Davis has a LOT less reason to have so many red herrings in Season 3.

Yeah, given that spoiler totally gonna be Lydia pulling Jackson back from the brink, not Danny. Ah well. Hopefully in season three the space lets him throw in red herrings that are complete plotlines on their own as well.

Slamhound posted:I think calling them red herrings is inaccurate. Sure, they were misdirections from the question of Who Controls the Kanina, but they all wound up being greater plot points in the over-arching mythology. If anything was a red herring, it's the Kanima plot-line itself, since all it did was to add a wildcard to the Scott-Argent-Hale conflict. Misleading clues = red herrings. The identity of the kanima was heavily and repeatedly misdirected by stuff related to Lydia, often in a way that only the viewer could piece together. Sure, the clues ended up showing her being crazy and immune; and sure, that has its own meaning to the story, but not to the mystery of the identity, which was the one being actively pursued over multiple episodes by the majority of the cast. The idiom still fits, but I get your point. Mr. Harris' car/bumper sticker was more acutely a red herring for the identity of the master. The viewer gets clues, and the characters pick up on it, even. And these "clues" in no way explained after the big truth reveal beyond Stiles declaring he "must've stolen Harris' car to frame him for the murders!" Don't get me wrong, I enjoy wild conjecture (obviously), but when every mystery follows the pattern of clues being solidly framed as clues (even for audience-only information) that end up being false, and the truth was more or less impossible to deduce without information that wasn't given out, I find it gets a wee bit tiresome.

I for one enjoy the fact that Mr. Harris or his car have been tangentially related to each season's whodunit.

I don't mind the red hearings in this show, they at least seem plausible at one point or another. And by seasons end I'd rather have suspected everyone at one point than to have figured it out by episode 2 and be irritated the rest of the season no one on the show figured it out. So I'm guessing by calling out someones 'true christian name' means they are going to have to find out what Jacksons bio-mom was going to name him? Or is it going to be as easy as just calling him Jackson?

I think that was just a 'legend with a hint of truth' - they need to appeal to his identity.

I guess I'd just be disappointed if they don't go Gay Wolf on us somehow, because seriously, the lead writer wants to do it. The fans want him to do it. It would attract more viewers. And it probably wouldn't lose any, because if you were a giant homophobe, why the gently caress would you be watching this show where shirtless guys always seem just about ready to blow each other? And if it's Lydia, I don't like the abuse vibes. Jackson's been an utter poo poo to her. She's too good for that.

Actually, I expect they'll team up due to earlier foreshadowing and jesus christ from her point of view why not.

Thematically, it would be most in character to have Jackson making out with himself. Bring on the shapeshifters for season 3. Actually, for a show like this I was thinking, there's been a huge paucity of supernatural creatures. I think in total over two years we've seen seven werewolves and one kanema. They're very restrained in terms of introducing new stuff.

You hint at it so crazy women can write their slash-fic, but you don't full out own it because then they lose the illusion they could still nail those guys if it ever came down to it. And crazy female slash-fic writers are by far the most die hard fans in world. They make random internet geeks that vote on online polls look like milk sucking babies.

I made a comment once on a Supernatural youtube video that was shipping the brothers together as it being stupid. That was two years ago and I still get replies to it from people flipping the gently caress out on me. It's the only reason I even still remember making that comment in the first place. It wasn't even a vitriolic comment to begin with.

I can seriously not stress this enough: Do not gently caress with women who write slash-fic. Don't do it. Their crazy is infinitely stronger than whatever you bring to the table, even if what you bring to the table is a gun. They are two, three generations away from being able to harness their crazy into a beam they will fire at people that don't understand them. They will crucify you on the lawns of the writers' houses. It is not worth it. You deal with them as you would a violent, wild animal. Just stay out of their territory and let them do what they do.

Incidentally, I think I figured why they introduced the 'Matt slowly turning Kanema' element. It's as a reason that Peter Hale has planned to take control of Jackson/Kanema through a mind-controlled proxy (Lydia, after she wuvs Jackson into leaving Gerard and transferring to her) rather than directly himself. So he'll be shielded from consequences. Season three shenanigans ensue.

It exploits the curiosity of a few people, but not as impressively as it used to--if you want to make headlines, you need more than that these days. Also, the people working on the show right now have an incentive to jump that bridge--not on everyone of course, but one or two couples would hardly sink the "could I bang this man?" vibe.
