The high-school anonymity Scott McCall was trying to break free from couldn't have happened in a more mysterious, complicated way. While walking in the woods one night Scott encounters a creature, is bitten in the side, and his life is forever changed. Is he a human or a werewolf? Or a little bit of both? Controlling the strange urges he now feels is the toughest part, and he's afraid the urges could end up controlling him. Will the bite be a gift or a curse, especially as it relates to the mischievous Allison, whom Scott can't get enough of?

Critics Consensus

Thanks to a charismatic lead in Tyler Posey and some dark, biting humor, Teen Wolf is a pleasant summer surprise, even if it does tread familiar ground.

Eric Deggans NPR 11/21/2019
Instead of a cableized Vampire Diaries-style take on the wolfman myth, MTV got a warmed-over, underacted mess that feels more like a bad Twilight parody. Go to Full Review

I'm more surprised than anyone to report that this Buffy-esque drama/comedy/horror show is pretty damn good. Go to Full Review

... one of the best of the supernatural shows that proliferated in the early 21st century, interesting and engaging and a lot smarter than 'True Blood,' with a mythology more interesting than 'The Vampire Diaries.' Go to Full Review

While I won't pretend Teen Wolf is without flaws, it does have its merits. Go to Full Review
Tom Gliatto People Magazine 11/12/2018
Moving at a fast, fun lope, Wolf has nothing to do with the 1985 Michael J. Fox movie-it's more in line with the CW's Vampire Diaries and other softly hormonal goth hits. Go to Full Review

More serious and More funny Is Series Teen Wolf A Comedy See more Rowan C @RowanC3 Mar 12 Season 1 of Teen Wolf was actually good with a few corny moments here and there with not so good CGI. I don't judge shows off their CGI, so it really has no impact on my rating. Scott McCall who is played by Tyler Posey is a 16 year old boy who had bad luck when searching for a dead body with is friend Stiles Stilinski who is played by Dylan O'Brien and they got separated when Stiles father Noah Stilinski who is played by Linden Ashby found Stiles wandering the woods. Noah is a cop so Stlies hears his dispatch all the time so Stiles lied that Scott was not with him which left Scott alone. When Scott was in the woods, he stumbled across the dead body and he freaked out which lead him straight to a werewolf. The wolf bit him and this would cause him to turn into one himself. In the coming days, Scott noticed changes in his body which made him way stronger, faster, agile and had the ability to hear anything from any distance. He became head of the lacrosse team with his classmate Jackson Whittemore who is played by Colton Hayes and Jackson knew that something was going on with Scott in which he figured out that Scott was a wolf later in the season. Scott also fell in love with the new girl to the school Allison Argent who is played by Crystal Reed and her family are a bunch of werewolf hunters but she had no idea til the very last episodes of the first season. Scotts' right hand man in all of this was mostly Derek Hale who is played by Tyler Hoechlin and the main villain Alpha was his uncle Peter Hale who is played by Ian Bowen. It was found that all murders were linked back to the Hale house fire. Peter was getting revenge on the people who burned down his house with his innocent family in it but it turns out that Kate Argent who is played by Jill Wagner broke the code they all stand for and burned all of them alive. Mr. Argent who is played by JR Bourne finds this out at the end and stops Kate who was trying to kill Scott. The Alpha grabbed Kate and made her apologize right before he sliced her throat with his own claws. Earlier, The Alpha bit Lydia Martin who is played by Holland Rodeo and she is Jacksons' ex girlfriend but she is still in the hospital bed not healing like Scott did from the werewolf bite. They all managed to burn the Alpha alive but he was left alive with the opportunity for Scott to kill him so he could not be a wolf anymore. Derek did not listen to this request and he sliced his throat open killing him which made Derek the new Alpha. Derek was so fueled with anger because Peter killed his sister on purpose to become the Alpha and he couldn't let someone else kill him. Scott and Allison had a lot of bumps in their relationship because of the lying but it all came back together at the end when Scott told Allison that he loved her. Jackson came back to Derek at the end and begged him to turn him into a wolf but the scene ended with Derek going at him with a bite. Overall, this was a strong start to a show and I hope that this keeps up because I already love it.
