Werewolves, vampires, witches and other assorted creatures have become the staple of teen TV dramas over the past couple of years, to the point where the creatures, not to mention the actors who play them and the stories being told, feel interchangeable. Maybe that’s why this Canadian series feels so fresh --- it’s not the old supernatural song and dance you’ve seen before. Or maybe it’s the better than expected special effects that make the transformation scenes look entertaining, if not always believable. Ok, maybe it’s just the idea of watching lead actress Laura Vandervoort week after week that’s got us hooked, but hooked we are on this story of a young woman/wolf (Vandervoort) trying to make a life for herself outside the family pack. You will be too.
