    pretty good show

    This is a very good show on Fox Family network. I think it has only aired there and YTV (I think that's the name?) in Canada. A lot of the shows on Fox Family come from Canada in some manner. This particular show is filmed in Canada. I think all the production is based there. Big Wolf is really funny, in an odd kind of way. A lot of the stories and jokes are unoriginal, and probably could have been written by a high school english student, but it doesn't matter...the show totally works. The cast works really well, and the characters, you can't help but like them all...or, well, most of them atleast. The show has a nice look and a nice premise. If you like the show, visit the links page here at imdb.com, because there are petitions to save the show and get Fox Family to "buy" a third season and basically pick up the show's entire production tab themselves. It's highly doubtful, because they'll be losing money, of course...but, we can hope.

    The Best Show Around

    "Big Wolf On Campus" is one of the best shows that I have seen in a long time. Not only are the actors great, but every episode of the show is great, too. It has a certain quality about it- it intermixes the horrors of high school life and the "fun" stuff that you really want to see on television. I've never seen one episode of the series that made me cringe, like some of the other "teen" shows that are out there. The show has a great humorous quality to it that really makes the show what it is. Besides of the humour, the actors also make you love the show. Every single actor makes their role come alive and they all bring a lot to the show. This show is especially one of the best on the air because it really is a "family" show. People of every age can get enjoyment out of it. I guarantee that if you watch this show you will love it and fall in love with the characters themselves.

    Fun for All

    Yes this show has been off the air for 3 years and I am only now getting on to commenting on it.

    What can I say...I loved this show. It was entertaining, hilarious and introduced a younger audience to horror, fantasy and sci-fi..but in a light-hearted way.

    Merton, Tommy and Lori are characters that were likable and fun to watch develop over the short run of the series.

    I have introduced this show to my 5 year old - who just loved it! Too bad it was canceled after only 3 seasons - there could have been so much more!

    Hilarious!

    I love this show! It is a very funny horror parody, that is like Buffy the Vampire Slayer meets Teen Wolf meets Eerie Indiana. When you watch it, you will INSTANTLY notice the talent of Danny Smith, who plays the loveable sidekick, Merton Dingle.

    The 90s were a great time

    As a kid in the 90s, you'd come home from school, watch Goosebumps, Are You Afraid Of The Dark?, Kenan N' Kel or Power Rangers (to lighten the mood), then Big Wolf On Campus. Followed by WCW Nitro and maybe Clash Of The Titans on TCM for the 30th time (did TCM have contractual obligations to show that movie every week?)

    None of what I said above is a joke or exaggeration. Life was just That good back then, and I look back fondly at the great memories of Brandon Quinn and Danny Smith tackling cheesy monsters every episode.

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The sudden change in the werewolf makeup during the first season was due to actor Brandon Quinn's allergic reaction to the original makeup.
    • Goofs
      Throughout out the series, it's clear that the actors/actresses portraying teenagers are actually in their 20s+. This is done as to not interfere with the schooling of real teenagers and to give the general viewing audience who are teenagers themselves someone they can look up too.

      Mr. Geiger: [holding up ink blots] Just tell me what you see.

      Merton: It looks like a bat.

      Mr. Geiger: Very good. And now?

      Merton: Bat.

      Mr. Geiger: And?

      Merton: Bat... bat... A lonely boy, failing to please his demanding father at every turn.

      Mr. Geiger: Wait, that one's upside-down.
