Behind the scenes

Errors

  • Grandpa spends the entire time with humans in his werewolf form.
  • Would a teenage girl really spend time with an old man who wasn't her own grandfather?
  • When Teen Wolf and Boof hide in the bushes, they're not drawn to actually emulate any kneeling.
  • The end credits say "Assisant animators" instead of "Assistant animators" which is a season-wide mistake.
