I give anything supernatural/SciFi one episode.

I watch the first episode and if they grab me with something, anything really because there is so little quality genre stuff on TV, I'll come back.

I've only given up on a few such shows. I gave up on Heroes in Season 4 or whenever they went to the carnival.

I gave up on Secret Circle after 1 and a half episodes cause the writing was pretty bad and the plot was trying to do too much all at the same time.

The key to your question about getting people to watch Teen Wolf is to get people to WATCH Teen Wolf.

I know that sounds odd but I didn't like X-Files, Lost, TVD or Supernatural UNTIL - I watched all the episodes of a couple of seasons back to back on netflix.

Each year, usually between December and February, there is a long drought of reruns and weird specials in place of television's usual fair.

During these periods I find some series that I didn't watch the first time around and watch all the episodes all in a row. I have fallen in love with the all shows listed above (except that 4th season of Heroes and Secret Circle) and watch new episodes faithfully.

Good writing sometimes takes time to sink in and episodic television doesn't work well for telling big stories - watching several episodes without commercials or a week wait in between can let those stories play out in a way that the easily bored/distracted/whatever can appreciate.

Okay so I've broken my own rule about Blogging the Comments Section.

I'll give this a couple of hours and then delete it because - NO BLOGING THE COMMENTS SECTION! -
