Oh, haha, I personally don't see many redeeming features in it as a piece of television, and I say this as someone who semi-legitimately likes True Blood, or at least I feel a little less disappointed in myself for continuing to watch it.
The first time Skarsgard showed up in True Blood, with douchey long hair and sitting there glowering, I laughed so hard I almost choked up a piece of my lung, and I was sold. At this point he generally just looks like he can't believe he's still on this fucking show but I'm reluctantly entranced by some of the other performances (most of the characters who aren't Sookie are really well-played) and Joe Mangianello with his shirt off is magnificent, I can't look directly at him.
Oh god, my sympathies. I think it gets sort of exponentially better as it goes on, but -- man, this show is like a PLAGUE. I'm at the beginning of s2 and at this point I CAN'T STOP.
Season 2 is killing me, I really didn't expect to have so many FEELINGS about the characters, they were supposed to be a pretty dumb show for me to relax with. Now I'm all biting nails & yelling CLIFFHANGER NOOOOO. So, um, yes. /fandom confessions
I am now feeling the pain of WHAT IS THIS TIMELINE EVEN but, uh, that's because I apparently cannot hush and wait til I've seen the whole canon before trying to write something. *g*
I was just explaining to a friend the very important distinction between the tv show Teen Wolf that airs on MTV and the fandom construct Teen Wolf on Tumblr. Because Stiles is definitely the star of Teen Wolf on Tumblr!
Happily I had been warned about this before I started watching the show, so it wasn't a big disappointment. I was excited to see that Derek and Stiles genuinely do interact and that is not all Photoshop. :D

I have a lot of feelings about TV, though.

Mostly though, I watch True Blood while drunk.

Honestly, this fandom is more Stiles fandom than Teen Wolf fandom, IMO.
