Are we talking about Teen Wolf here? I'm watching it in Netflix. The coach is everything I hated about gym class in junior high. I can see why Stiles is a fan favorite. So far Derrick's just been loomy and broody.
Whatever happened to the still beating heart of a virgin? No one has any standards anymore.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Does that mean you haven't gotten to the parts where Derek is stupid yet? He really is exquisitely dumb. I'm not sure what the writers' intent was, but he can barely tie his werewolf shoelaces. Stles outmatches him at everything werewolf-related except fang to fang combat, and Scott isn't as far behind as you might think, given he's been wolfy for ten minutes, and Derek's been that way his whole life.

I thought the parts where Derek is stupid = the entire show.

He does seem competent for a couple of episodes at the start of Season 2.

No, mostly Derek just wanders around and looks irritable, so far. Threatens whatshisbutt, the lead, occasionally.I've seen Stiles' dad, though. He's kinda pretty.

I'm having difficulty remembering specific moments of him being not dumb yet, but I am willing to allow they might exist. But with the good-heartedness of Scott and the brilliance of Stiles and the badassedness of Allison, well...

Not even for Vanessa Williams.
I actually saw Vanessa Williams in person today, at a luncheon. I wanted to pull her aside and say "can we just watch you and Terry Quinn be evil? Cause THAT's a show"

I only got to go because a friend of a friend bought a table and there was an extra seat. Right place, right time :)

I sort of like 666 Park Ave, but there should definitely be more Vanessa Williams and Terry Quinn.
