If you look back
at any wolf movie or show you would see that they all share the same concept. The
formulas used in this show are romance, good vs. evil, and battle.
Teen wolf and many
other wolf show has all followed the same romance line. It is always a young
girl who is desired from the “creature” and eventually falls deeply in love
with one another. The two eventually would find themselves in obstacles that
are thrown in their way due to the different lives they live. In this series Scott and Alison has many
hurdles, the biggest one they face is that Alison’s parents are werewolf
hunters. This is used because people love romance.
The second formula
that would be found are good vs. bad. In the series there are bad wolves
against other good wolves that fight constantly during the episodes. There would
not be a great show if there were not two different sides fighting against each
other. Battles take place on every episode. This formula is put in to keep the
audience attention, keeping them excited on wants going to happen next.
I believe that a
lot of shows must follow some type of romance and action. There is no such
thing as a movie that does not have a protagonist and antagonist. People love
to have heroes in there show and characters that they could relate to. It would
suck to have a movie/show that does not have a heroic character. The same way with romance, producers use this
formula to engage with their audience so that it can be more realistic to them.
