As a werewolf he overshadows Scott

He has been set on the road of becoming a 'hero', that usually ends in a heroic death

Jeff has worked at disintergrating the charcter since  season 2 taking him from one of the most rounded (in terms of backstory) to a comically tragic figure in 3B. He turned him into nothing more than a punch bag extra who took his shirt off at every opportunity  and margianlized him in terms of screen time and storyline. In short he's treated the character  and the actor apallingly leaving him nowhere to go but onto better things in another show. I'm not sure I agree here...

He's definitely put Derek through the ringer but the actor himself as mentioned that he really enjoyed the writers new direction every season. I myself, I've loved seeing seeing him go from grumpy face kill you Derek to Grumpy face ok damn I'm gona save you Derek! Specially with Stiles. I'd even say that you can see Scott's influence on Derek when their on screen together.

But please, give me your source for the /Jeff dislikes and doesn't know what to do with the character/ reference. I'd love to read that.

As for screen time, I feel like he had plenty of it before season 3b and still getting decent numbers now. New characters are joining the show and its also Davis' first go at a 24 episode season. Its tough work to keep all the fan favorites in front when you have an amazing cast and new stories to tell. Even so, Derek is still there being awesome (Saving Argent, looking for Stiles). I'm not sure I'm seeing a tragic figure really... Nope, not this Derek.

And then Stiles, well, I've said this before but I think Stiles represent the beating heart of the entire gang... In the show and in RL. So ya, when he's onscreen shit tends to be a lot better. He literally intensifies every scene. Make humour funnier and tragedy more tragic. He's literally the shows secret weapon in more ways then one. Plus, he's the guy possessed and killing everyone right now so he gets tons of screen time for sure.

One thing that I'll say that does annoy me in 3b is that Jeff seems to have a hard on for Kira. Explainable or not she is WAY too badass. I think Derek and Scott could easily (Should have) taken out all the Oni's in Derek's place. And they were the easy ones. The fact that Kira takes on the tougher ones and just trashes them... I was a bit annoyed. Except Jeff didn't really take a crack at a 24 episode season, he have us two twelve episode seasons under the banner of one. And you make it seems like he had to bring in all these new faces,when that was his choice. Like you said, there are stories to tell with the characters he had.

But I agree about Kira, she's too badass for someone who is just awakening her powers. I could understand being able to hold her own, but she's kicking ass and taking prisoners, when alpha Scott who knows at least some of his capabilities has been having his ass handed to him on a platter. I don't think Jeff is making Kira look too powerful, I think that she doesn't know how to control anything that well yet, so her power fluctuates from high to low at times.
