This cactus is muuuch tastier. I like pretty much all the (male) characters, I like how it goes, I'm curious about how it's gonna end... I like it, even though women are only there to be pretty so far. At least Stiles balances the stupid and I'm not as annoyed with Scott as I expected to be.
And mid-season, with Jackson getting a pretty nice twist I started hoping that there's a future for Allison as well. Lydia is the Summer of this show only with too much lipgloss and not enough brain, so I try to, like, ignore her.
I think that big part of why I like it much better than SPN is the actors. Tyler Posey can panic with his eyes. Like, literally, only his eyes are visible and it's clear that he's panicking. Dylan O'Brian can do things with his voice. Like make it break or disappear mid-sentence or go from worried to "We're going to die and we're just stalling the inevitable". And his eye-rolls are epic. Crystal Reed is stuck with a terrible, terrible character but she's doing what she can.
Overall, the last three or so episodes were probably the best. In fact, the second-to-last episode was so good that it was better than finale. But Code Breaker had some very good moments as well even if it didn't make much sense.
(I'm still kinda confused and upset about the ease with which Stiles caused Scott pain and suffering. For all his supposed good intentions it reads like something even worse than jealousy.)
