Episode description

This episode is Rated B for 'Brave yet controversial'. John has a few things to say about the culture surrounding the 2011 ... reboot ... of the 1985 Michael J. Fox movie. It really is about how fandom approaches both the genre work and characters/actors of Teen Wolf. From treating Tyler Posey like a piece of meat to deconstructing the gaze of Teen Wolf- nothing about the urban horror/ghost story MTV show is off limits.

Follow along as John and Magnus give some context to Teen Wolf's place in history, examine how much of it was influenced by other neo-american horror (Harry Dresden and Buffy the Vampire Slayer come to mind) and how much of Teen Wolf's unique take on wolf culture created something striking on its own. Not to mention talk of Stiles.

Join in for a tale of a California town beset by an underground supernatural culture that is- kinda gay? Or at least a little bi.
