Just saw a CBBC TV production my daughter enjoys, called Wolfblood. Teenage werewolves are trying to negotiate life at school without their secret being discovered.
Parents of one girl are also werewolves hiding in human society, leading to interesting interactions at home too.
A slightly younger, high school crowd, but some nice scenes surrounding alienation, acceptance, dominance…werewolves as metaphor for teenage messiness. Good for a change of pace, though possibly a little tame for some here.
I would like to see a Monsterhearts campaign at this school. The fusty old BBC might raise an eyebrow at the Sex Moves though!

On Disney Channel in the USA.
Oh, heck, yes, sign me up for this if it ever launches! I haven’t played a werewolf since that lupus ragabash glass-walker of mine turned the whole of his sept on its collective ear…
There must be some real spec fiction fans at the BBC’s Cardiff (Wales) production unit. They also did the Doctor Who spinoff, Torchwood.
Michael Barry Methinks you may be right.
