For the record, I'd like to be very wrong about that.

There's actually someone I can contact regarding this. The person in question may not actually give me an answer, but I can try. Hence why I'm still skeptical. This is Canadian film... it's more different up here than you guys realize. It definitely won't be shown in the states if there is a tail growth, but I wouldn't completely rule it out. They might avoid doing it because if it can only be shown in Canada, it's not exactly money well-spent. But simply because it's her bare ass is not reason enough to rule it out. Budget I'd understand, but at this rate, not censorship. Tail growth isn't of a sexual nature (not on Bitten, it isn't, anyway).

Another reason I wouldn't expect to see it is that in the books the details of her growing a tail is never written down. The TFs aren't exactly described in any rich detail in the original so I doubt the TV writers feel any obligation to include those details in their scenes either. There really is no reason to expect to see that on TV.

I feel like I'm the only one who really liked the TF. I mean sure, almost everything was already seen in the first teasers. I know I'm not the only one, but it feels like because of all the "meh" posts here.

Frankly I think the back transformation in a sequence is the most important, so for me this has been one of the best werewolf related things I have ever seen.

You're not, Wuschel, you're definitely not! I just stopped trying to fight the "meh's" since I feel like people can never get happy. They don't realise we might as well have gotten nothing at all, or another another another male TF or "bearded-human" type of werewolf.
This TF was awesome. ^^

It's a shame that they chose to zoom in on parts of the TF and/or truncate where it makes no visual sense (seemingly other than for content 'modesty' and actor 'vanity').

I agree with the critical comments about the buildup to the 'first change'. If this is supposedly a process that is agonizing to the point where it kills all "non-unique-snowflake" women, they kneecap the audience effect when they cut away to save us the discomfort of seeing it actually happen. "Tell, don't show" works fine in a book - it's all text converted to images in your imagination anyway. Not so much, in visual media like television.

-C

Watching for whatever bones they throw our way at this point - someone could probably come up with a good compilation/edit of the combined TFs once the episodes are complete - that might be more effective that what the creators are giving us in pieces!

Nah, that's not it, the transformations aren't what kills most of the infected females. It's a combination of three things that's kept the female werewolf population down in the book series at least.

1. The lycanthrope gene is only passed from father to son, so no natural born female werewolves.
2. Most women don't survive being attacked by a werewolf in the first place according to the books. So they never even undergo the first transformation since their throats were torn out or some other immediately fatal injury was inflicted during the encounter.
3. The first transformation is supposed to be very rough and sometimes uneven, like a person's throat could change before the rest of their body and they choke to death. Apparently that's more common in females than males.

In the TV series it seems they really downplayed how rough that first change was supposed to be for her, she didn't seem to suffer much at all, while in the book she nearly died.

In the books it's also possible for a werewolf to get stuck between forms, if that happens they are simply doomed to constant agony until someone comes along and kills them. Though I doubt the series will get as far as showing us that.

From the TF point of view, it worths nothing xD.

No surprises. I think the show's done as far as showing any female content for us is concerned.

You MIGHT get some more male stuff if new characters show up.

Nope, no penises allowed in this sub-forum... anyway, there is still the "anything else" subforum for those issues :P.

And I really think that there are still two more Elena's TFs. I don't want to be "spoily", but one maybe in one or two weeks, and the other one near the end of the series, at least if they follow the book.
The only issue about them is that even thought they are not extensively described, it seemed that she had no time to get naked (dangerous situations, you know), so expect them more off camera than the previous ones.
