Teen Wolf - S3E10 - The Overlooked
A mixed bag of an episode for me. There were a lot of good moments of action or some good character moments, but there was also so much exposition at the end. I know that they needed to get the plot going, and I'm glad they tried to flesh out Jennifer, and some of that mistletoe info was interesting, it just dragged a bit.
I keep saying it, but it's such a major fail on the writer's parts IMO that they've failed to not only develop Cora, but develop her relationships with anyone, and now we have this mad dash to save Cora and we're supposed to care and I really don't all that much. And I don't buy some of these people's great concern either. Peter has spent most of his limited interactions with Cora being snarky, he killed one of his other nieces, and he is barely human with anyone. So him fussing over Cora didn't ring true to me. Isaac has shared no scenes with her, but is all in a rush to get to Cora and in the previews is screaming at Derek about not helping Cora. You would think she was his sister.
The person Cora's spent the most time with is Stiles and his reaction seems the most appropriate. And maybe I'm being naive, or it's the knowledge that the actress isn't long for TW, but I've never thought any of the Cora/Stiles scenes were supposed to be setting up a real romance. At most Cora could possibly be the one to deflower Stiles, but that's it.
Melissa McCall is such a fuckin' badass! Her character was kind of take her or leave her for me in the previous 2 seasons. I didn't hate her - I had no real strong feelings towards her. But she has just been phenomenal.
I liked the way Haley Webb played the transition between mousey Jennifer and the Darach.
Horny Isaac gosd love how that boy sticks his foot in his mouth so often. And awwwwwwwww that he didn't want to leave Scott. The thing that killed me about the line and DS's delivery was the way his voice cracked when he said Scott's name. He's so in love. :)
Loved the final scene with Scott and Stiles. We many not get to see it quite as much this year but whenever they're together it's clear they have the strongest, most functional relationship on the show.
