How bad does Teen Wolf get? I started watching it and I'm around middle of season 3 at the moment and it's started to feel pretty repetetive.

There also seems to be important scenes that happen off screen, like the main guy telling his girlfriend that her mother tried to kill him. You just get the build up to it, cut to different scene, cut back to the aftermath. And I don't get why Derek is still palling around with his uncle who murdered his sister.

You get a good enough conclusion to satisfy what happens in Season 2. I enjoy this show much more than I thought I would. Season 1 was wild. Season 2 was different but good and had some standout episodes.

I love the camera work in this show, but some questions are left unanswered when the season ends. It doesn't end on a supreme cliffhanger, just minor things that may or may not get addressed in a Season 3.

Don't forget 30 Rock! Larry Sanders and 30 Rock are two of the very few comedies that I have saved to offline media. Larry's comedy is potent enough that I expect some random Garry Shandling scene to offend some fringe niche group horribly enough for episodes to be removed, which was what happened with 30 Rock.

Also I feel like some early Conan has been very heavily inspired by bits from this show.

Bizarrely I don’t think I’ve sensed much of that. I’ve mainly seen lots of genuine posts by people who are just enjoying the stuff on AppleTV+ because it’s genuinely (perhaps even surprisingly) almost all absolutely excellent (and when it’s not excellent, it’s at least “good.”)
