Board Thread:Legitimate Canon Questions/@comment-13965604-20140115011836/@comment-4091815-20140115013320

I've been talking with MTV directly about the timeline for several months now.

They've chosen, for whatever reason, to reflect the current "real" year on screne while still maintaining that everything is happening in the same year for Scott and his friends.

Lucky for them, they've not given hard dates for most key events - like the Hale House Fire remains 6 (now nearly 7) years ago.

They're NOT dealing with the fact that this causes the "important dates" that they did show on screen to move further back in time.


 * The day and year of the Alexander Argent suicide
 * The year of the swim team party for Matt
 * The year Kate's birth

They tell me they want to fix these problems but have thus far made no move in that direction.

The official position of Teen Wolf Wiki - any date shown later than October 2011 is a production "mistake" and doesn't change established canon.
