I have to say I completely disagree with you. I loved the season finale.

To answer your discussion points:

1. The Gerard and Kanima Plotline

This is a show about werewolves! So in my opinion, there can't be enough of them. Furthermore you can't have Jackson be a Kanima the whole time basically enslaved and almost impossible to kill, it gets boring. Plus, I don't know if it's just me, but when Jackson turned into a werewolf, it seemed like Derek and Peter looked very surprised or even scared. I think there might be something special about Jackson's werewolf form, but that's just me, consider it as speculation. We don't know what happened with Gerard. Who says he won't die? He might have dragued himself out of the "room" and died somewhere else. You say he is not supernatural, this is not true. He just got the bite from an Alpha. Yes Scott swaped his cancer pills with mountain ash pills but we don't know if it was enough to fully reject the bite... It could just be an allergic reaction at the beginning and then the werewolf powers make him heal. We also don't know if he is actually going to turn. What everyone keeps forgetting, there's still a 50/50 chance that the bite actually kills him... He was putting everything on one card to survive. And as Maria already said, we don't know if the Kanima chapter is fully closed, I guess we'll just have to stay tuned.

2. Peter Hale's return

Why is it disappointing? Peter's return was incredible. Yes he is really smart and his knowledge seems extraordinary, far beyond Derek's knowledge, BUT, right now, Derek is more powerful. Derek is an Alpha, Peter a Beta and an extremely week one. I'm not sure which episode it is, but Mr Deaton (the vet) explains that this kind of resurrection comes with a price, Peter is extremely weak (for a werewolf) and therefore hides during the fight. From what we've seen so far during the first 2 seasons, Peter always has a plan and is not to be trusted. I am pretty sure he has something in mind to regain the power, but for now, he has to lay low in order to survive.

3. The Hunters

I don't think that the Hunters are diminished. The episode where matt dies (I think it's episode 9 but I'm not sure), look at how many guns they bring. Now again this is just me talking, but I think the hunters are some kind of a network. They have "cells" located around the country and probably around the world, who can call for back up if needed. Plus it wouldn't be in Gerard's interest to call back up in this case since he's actually breaking every rule and code the hunters have. Imagine 10 Hunters with him during the season finally. They would have killed him. This way he had some leverage. He knew Chris wouldn't do anything while Allison was still in Jackson's grip. And it's not that Scott doesn't fear the hunters anymore, but they had a common ennemy, that's why he agreed to side with Chris. Furthermore he is still in love with Allison. It wouldn't be in his interest to fight her father. And I think that a mutual respect for each other is growing between Scott and Chris, since Scott noticed that Chris really follows a moral code, and Chris noticed that Scott truly loves Allison and has a good heart.

4. Derek and Scott

I don't see why the main protagonist (to me scott is not an antagonist) shouldn't have a plan of his own. Are you actually mad because you didn't know about it. That's what makes the show so great. The unexpected. And I think it's kind of cool that Scott was actually fooling everyone all along. I actually started to worry why Scott was being played by everyone during the season: the good guy who won't hurt anyone even if they're bad. That has changed and I am glad.

I do agree that the whole pack situation is confusing, but I love this mistery. I guess we will find out in season 3. Don't forget that (as Peter revealed in the season finale) Derek was in a hurry to build a pack because of the Alpha pack. And he did it in a clumsy way. He basically recruited every insecure teenage outsider, giving the prospect of a better life. Sure he told them about the risks, BUT I think the focus was definately put on the powers, the healing etc... Which means that those Teenagers (Boyd, Erica and Isaac) are having a hard time finding their marks especially when confronted with danger. I don't think they expected having to fight other stronger supernatural creatures. Boyd and Erica are probably in captivity. We've seen it in the finally, they were surrounded by the alpha pack.

As for Isaac, I guess we'l figure out in the next season. But do you seriously want all the answers answered straight away? It would kill the show!

5. The normal people

First of all, if recall correctly, stiles' dad doesn't know anything about supernatural creatures yet. And Mrs McCall hadn't had time to deal with properly for now, since one tragedy followed another.

As for the rest of the town. Of course it's weird, but every show with supernatural elements, the normal people are kept in the dark. Plus, who would think about the supernatural? How many people would think: "Hmmmmm, 3 animal attacks on humans... It must be a werewolf!" Haha. I don't think a lot of people would think that.

6. The Alpha Pack

What is confusing about that? This pack is obviously going to cause some troubles in season 3. They've just been introduced! It's part of the cliff hanger. If you don't like that, I'd suggest you stop watching TV shows.
