While watching TVD, the character Klaus became so much a pain in the ass that if he stayed in the show for 3 more episodes I was seriously going to stop watching. But it's really surprising to hear that actually happen for this show, especially for Malia. Maybe it's my bias because I love the actress and she's practically the reason I started this show, but she seems to be quite alright when all things considered. She had great storylines, she had badass moments, she is hot as hell, Shelley has talent.. so yeah, I don't get it also..

Maybe they're just showing her as scapegoat, which I'm profoundly against (mostly due to my bias).

Btw I just checked wikipedia, and ratings doesn't seem to be down really. yes, the average is lower than last season, but it's still higher than S1 ratings, which was good enough to get us a season 2. So I think we're good :)) Well, the ratings have been lower this year then any other year...the Season 4 premiere, was the only episode that hit the 2 million mark this season. and the finale was awesome and was still way lower then previous episodes, and previous finales...the ratings have dropped, and I think it has more to do with character developments not going the way people want and Scott disappointed viewers as an alpha, but despite that, I think we should still keep watching. who knows! season 5 could be incredible, and bring the show back, I have hopes that one day we'll hit 3 million, I doubt it, but I'd be so happy for the cast and Jeff if they could break beyond these low ratings. I kinda covered this in the news - doesn't anybody here read the Teen Wolf News? Anyway - it's not the disgruntled fans alone that hurt the ratings there are other factors involved.

Also, like Teen Wolf, TVD and Arrow were down by almost the same percentage of their prior season average this year too. There's a fundamental shift in TV going on and the ratings haven't caught up to it yet. I hear you man, and I do read the news, btw. it just really pisses me off to see all these people talk so badly about the writing when they don't know crap. I am a writer and like you told whoever it was I haven't had any paid gigs! lol! and even then I won't dump on another artist's work...but that's just me. I know we can't change the negativity, but it just hits a nerve with me. Sorry if I took it too far Paul..
