 Those Damn Germans

As I scour the interwebs for Teen Wolf news I keep running into these third-tier entertainment sites with supposed “spoilers” and “exclusives” about the show.


 * Teen Wolf News, Spoilers: Sheriff Stilinski Hints At Season 6
 * Teen Wolf Star Ryan Kelley Says Deputy Parrish Could Date Lydia

I always try to track down any information to its original source and, in all these recent cases, that source is a little website called myfanbase.de. This Deutsch Journalistengruppe is generating almost all the Teen Wolf news in the world right now thanks mostly to a great series of interviews with supporting cast. The show’s not even on TV in Germany currently but here’s this little site churning out headlines for the whole world.

As to the two sneakily written screamers above (not from myfanbase.de BTW) – there is a little truth in both -

Linden says if everything goes well there’s no reason why they wouldn’t have a Season 6, in other words, common sense not a spoiler.

Ryan Kelley says “anything could happen” in Season 5 – again, common sense not spoilers because nobody’s got a script yet.

 Facts about Season 5

These are not spoilers since there are no actual spoilers about Season 5 yet. Instead we present the only actual factual information available on Season 5 based on what Teen Wolf producers reported to the State of California.


 * Season 5 is slated to film over a period of 183 days (6 months/26 weeks).
 * The budget for the 20 episodes is right at $46 million dollars.
 * The show expects to employ more than 5000 extras and stand-ins.
 * They expect to have 20 cast members (regular/recurring/guest star).
 * 130 crew members - camera operators, production assistants, electrical workers, etc. - will be required to get the show from page to screen.

MTV’s other supernatural drama, SCREAM, is still struggling to get moving. The production got a bit of a boost with $2.5 million from the State of California in special film tax credits to produce the pilot episode. This is the same pot of state money that allowed Teen Wolf to move back to California from Georgia in Season 3 and is currently financing $11.5 million of the wolf’s Season 5 budget. There is still, as far as I can find, no firm start date for SCREAM to actually film.

 Back to the Poisoned Well

MTV keeps trying the poisoned waters of social media and as we say in my native land “bless their hearts!”

They’re currently trying to gin up interest in the new Ouija movie (featuring Shelley Hennig) that’s coming out in a couple weeks. With their #AskOuija twitter campaign, fans are supposed to ask dearly departed Teen Wolf characters burning fandom questions. Of course anything MTV currently tries in that social realm is immediately beset by “those people” who apparently have nothing better to do than to continually criticize a show they claim they no longer watch.


 * @LiaCooperWrites - #askouija why do all the women and people of color die violently and all the white boys go to Europe?
 * @KayTemu - Do you ever get sick about how homophobe your show is? #AskOuija #TeenWolf
 * @PinkRosa_Bubble - Ehy Boyd, what do you think about tokenism? @MTVteenwolf #AskOuija

There were only about a half dozen “those people” total – but they accounted for almost a quarter of the tweets on the hashtag in the first 24 hours. I would usually say something about constant negativity being a sign of deeper mental issues, but I’d just get into trouble so…

Truly the worst thing for MTV and Teen Wolf Social Media in general - the hashtag saw fewer than 400 tweets total in 24 hours.
