 Eye Candy Can’t Match Teen Wolf

Looks like Teen Wolf still reigns supreme as MTV’s #1 drama.

Eye Candy barely broke the half million viewer mark in its first outing this week. The Victoria Justice led cyber-crime procedural pulled in an audience of 589,000 with just 0.2% of the prized 18-49 demographic.

Back in 2011, Teen Wolf debuted strong on Sunday, helped by an awards show lead-in, with 2.1 million viewers. Its Monday debut saw considerably less interest, pulling just 1.5 million. On its worst night, Teen Wolf still managed 1.2 million viewers and 0.6% of the demo.

More bad news for Eye Candy - it’s not unusual to see about a 20% drop between a new show’s debut and its second episode. There may be a wider story here about launching shows aimed at younger demos while those demos are abandoning traditionally measured viewing platforms. We'll need more data to tell if Eye Candy is the victim of this fundamental shift in television or simply something the audience doesn't want.

While Teen Wolf and Eye Candy are not in direct competition - had the show been a huge hit for MTV, it would’ve been a whole lot easier for the PTB to cancel our fading fan favorite. As it stands right now – Teen Wolf is still the network’s only breakout drama hit.

 Flaming Hair?

For a terrifying half hour this week, Ryan Kelley looked like this.



The Teen Wolf Deputy instagrammed a picture of himself with flaming hair with the caption “Just got my hair did, call me #Bieber #Blonde #Orange?lol”

The new do got mixed reviews from Kelley’s fans –
 * _fanpage_of_stuff_ - “Aww @the_ryan_kelley that looks adorable”
 * Hellyeahsterek – “ You're a ginger now!”
 * danuel_marius_de_veer - “Makes you look really young, but not sure if it's the best choice of colour.”
 * yostilinski – “No please go back to black 😣😓😫”

With all the speculation about what Kelley’s Teen Wolf character creature might be, especially with the “burning to death in the car” scene from Perishable, it seemed possible that this radical change to flame-colored hair might be in preparation for Season 5.

But this orange-headed wonder was merely a transition phase - like the pupa of a butterfly or a Level 16 Charmander. He showed the fully evolved new look in a follow-up post.

Kelley captioned this one “#sike”

He certainly had a few of us psyched out! The new do for Teen Wolf Season 5 (which begins filming in February) is closer to the old familiar do. That’s somewhat of a relief.

 Begging for Change

Dylan O’Brien and Kaya Scodelario want your spare change.

The pair of Maze Runners showed up in a recent YouTube video shilling for the Thirst Project.



While the topic is a serious one, the pair manages to have a bit of fun in the video making it a must watch for any DOB fan.

 Shelley’s New Flick

The trailer for Shelley Hennig’s (Malia Tate) new flick Unfriended is out and is more than a little creepy. It all takes place during a Google Hangout (or a SKYPE call?) as each of the participants face an “I Know What You Did Last Summer” situation with an unknown assailant.

The movie was originally called Cybernatural – get it? Supernatural/Cybernatural? They just changed it to Unfriended recently cause I guess being unfriended is really scary? MTV is promoting the thing pretty heavily on their YouTube.
