Well, it is what it is. I won't also miss a second season. If someone remembers the first long trailer of the series, it was 50% of Elena turning into wolf in different scenes, that turned out to be the 90% of what they shown afterwards, with the notable exception of the second TF on ep.1, that was in fact the best one IMHO. Other bad things were the not very good casting, the fact that they deviated from the book to save money with the FX (scene of Elena under the car, of non existant Elena TF in front of Phillip), the misunderstanding of who the target of the series would be (they tried to sell it as a werewolf show first, and then as a love triangle, when it was a "mafia" drama), the concerns of Ms. Vandervoort about nudity (I still believe that they ruined some of the TF takes) and the self censorship to sell the series outside Canada, that made the series a fair success in Canada, but not great numbers in USA.
Ok, I will balance my comments with the good things: there were three decent werewolf transformations, and they were well done... very censored, but well done. the very first one was cool and showed some nice facial TF, and "Elena's first TF" had a very nice "previous to TF" performance... the only one in which Laura V. showed nice actorial skills. But the best one was the TF with Logan, and I especially loved the foot TF, as it is quite unusual and was nicely done. In fact, it is to the date my third best female werewolf TF ever, being the other two in my top ten too.
Other good things were the story itself, I mean, the series was very viewable, and the CGI were not bad either, even though I still prefer the real props. And I really hope that this series could have helped to "normalize" the female werewolves in future shows
