Comedy meets teen melodrama in this marvelous TV mashup. The [Tumblr](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tumblr-campaign) 'Wolves and Recreation' is dedicated to taking dramatic photos and screen caps from the teen drama 'Teen Wolf' and captioning each one with humorous quotes from the [sitcom](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/life-in-stitches) 'Parks and Recreation.' For example, a screen shot of one character having what appears to be a serious phone call on his cell phone is punctuated with the hilarious out-of-context caption, "Scott? I tried to make ramen in the coffee pot and broke everything."

The results are comically amusing and will keep viewers coming for more every day. The juxtaposition of silly quotes against serious or even average everyday images makes this TV mashup extremely enjoyable. This terrific TV mashup Tumblr will brighten anyone's day and bring attention and appreciation to two great television shows.
