Anchors (3×13)
The start of season 3b was a time to reinvigorate the series, and boy does it get off to a strong start, utilizing Dylan O’Brien’s range far more than they have in the past straight out of the gate. To some fans’ chagrin, the season had been promoted in part to be Stiles-centric, which frustrated Scott Mccall fans. “Anchors” aside, though, the season was largely evenly distributed. Stiles, however, is a smart way to start things off as our honorary human (with no skill sets in combat like Allison) suffering greatly from the sacrifices he, Allison, and Scott made to save their parents. The idea that their selflessness is what opened up Beacon Hills to more monsters is a fun idea and it’s one that the season runs with. From beginning to end it’s an action packed and draining episode, and it’s easily the best season premiere the show has ever done.
