Agreed. Lacked story and slow moving. I kept checking the time on the episode as it seemed to drag. You usually expect a bit more in a pilot.
Now that you mention things looking cheap, there wasn't any extravagant locations, so maybe they tried to keep the writing inside that.
I remember Laura Vandervoort doing that sex scene in V where she ate yer man, but it wasn't quite at the same level as this. A lot of people fancy her, so they're probably just paying her for it in the hopes of dragging in the ratings. They kind of showed their entire hand in the first episode if that was their aim though.
Even though Teen Wolf is aimed at the younger audience, I think they're doing nearly everything better - drama, humour, thriller, horror and some impressive creativity. The setting is a bit different in this - a woman on her road of independence and themes of marriage/bitter pasts/in-laws etc., but that's just drama filler and doesn't distinguish and define.
I couldn't stand true blood (gave it 6 episodes, really tried, iirc), so if you say it's similar to that, then perhaps that's why I'm not sold on it.0 -

find the show ok ; the threesome is to show the mutts violent nature when they turned, while the sex scene is to show Elena keeps postpone her turns such that she can't control herself & must leave halfway through - it shows the contrast ie, one that run away while one that kills irresponsibly & indiscriminately
here, one type of werewolves belong to pack who are more civilise while the other the mutts who are violent ; they would turn as they like, their turning are not tied to the moon
the werewolves in the show didn't really follow the Wolfman legacy which is mostly monster by nature when they turn ; here, they are just like ordinary werewolves who retain their own human personality ie, if they are bad & violent they would after they turn otherwise they only kill animal to feed
the show is more of drama which shows how Elena struggles between two worlds & finally reconcile the differences
the ratings are initially 4.4 raising to 4.8 but after ep 2 raise to 5.1

Since SyFy import the show it will have no bearings on renewal. What matters is what numbers it pulls for the space Channel in Canada....its WAY off brand for the channel + broadcast at 10pm on Saturday :eek:
If its aimed at girls i doubt they'll be at home on a Saturday night no?
I havent seen any ratings data from Canada....so no idea if it'll get renewed or not.
Have you kept up with it?
The latest ep.had HBO level sex scenes!!.....wow!, i'm amazed what basic cable in Canada is able to show!, there is NO WAY syfy will air this without heavy edits!....and a castration scene!, show is deffo hardcore and going for shock value and that True blood edge!
BBM Canada data no latest data or ratings very low ? ; only the press released from Series Premiere on Space from bellmedia :mad:
though got improve but still pretty low (SyFy); right now, there is a RenewBitten for a second season petiton online - This petition will be delivered to: Syfy & Space Channel
Nick's sex scene ? the scene was well-done 0 -

no True Blood or Vampires Diaries or Teen Wolf here
it is a character driven show & is easier to get going throughout season 1 if you are a fan of Laura Vandervoort as Elena Michaels, it is about her & her struggles to reconcile to her pack & her lover ; season 2 is much easier to watch though
season 1 on Elena & her pack, season 2 on Elena & witches, season 3 don't know which book but speculation on ghost ; there are 13 books that span a whole Otherworld of supernatural creatures - Werewolves, Witches & Sorcerers, Demons, Ghosts, Vampires where Elena & her pack will encounterPack - a powerful, organized werewolf family based in the grand manor of Stonehaven which is the werewolves’ ancestral domain, the place where Elena's life as a werewolf began. She also holds an important place in the pack as their tracker.
Elena is the only female werewolf in existence unwillingly - lycanthrope curse to become a werewolf one is either born or bitten. The process is truly dangerous and doesn't mean that one will survive. In fact, the reason that there aren't alot of werewolves around is because not alot of people survive the transformation. Even a person that would be considered strong could die. Werewolf males have kids with human females and the girls are human while the boy are werewolves. This is how werewolves born. Like the above said, there has never been a known female werewolf before. Keyword: known
The werewolves themselves are more akin to real wolves than the werewolves of the Wolfman legacy. The humans transform into wolves that share hair and eye color but no other “super” powers.
These werewolves can control the transformation & it is not tied to the moon at all ; it's like a bodily function that can't be avoided ( holding off for a long time would make the change more difficult to control ) & they can retain who they are when they change although their animal instincts are more prevalent when they are in wolf form
Because Elena has always try to put off turning as she doesn’t embrace her wolf side, she almost loses control and turns while having sex with her boyfriend in ep 1

What I meant was is it a sort of PG-13 teen affair content wise, or a hard adult content show? Not that I'd decide to watch it or not based on either, but I'm curious as to the type of show it is. I suppose I'll just watch the first episode and see! 0
