Teen Wolf, the supernatural teen drama that first aired in 2011 and ended in 2017, is finding renewed success on streaming eight years after it concluded, according to Collider. The MTV series turned relative unknowns Tyler Posey, Dylan O'Brien, Colton Haynes and Holland Roden into stars with its story of a teenager who gains werewolf-like powers and uncovers a hidden supernatural world in his town, and its resurgence highlights the enduring appeal of the young-adult supernatural genre alongside shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and The Vampire Diaries.

Created by Jeff Davis, Teen Wolf ran for six seasons before rising production costs, MTV's retreat from scripted programming, and the cast ageing out of the "teen" premise brought it to a close. A 2023 revival attempt, Teen Wolf: The Movie on Paramount+, was poorly received by critics and fans. The article notes the original series is now gaining fresh viewership through streaming, introducing it to a new audience years after its network run ended.
