I feel like I've been really lenient with getting the werewolf lore into the show, seeing as by normal standards episode wise, we are only in, like, season two. But we are nearing the end of that s2 with no real development of anything. The fact that we are technically on "season four", and fast approaching "season five" only makes it even worse. Am I making any sense?

They clearly didn't want a werewolf show. They wanted a mythological creature show and needed something specific to sell to the network, so they could get their foot in the door. And then abandoned what they were selling to do what they really wanted. Well, I have this deep-seated fear of Teen Wolf turning into True Blood, which also went the Fantasy Kitchen Sink route (straight down the drain). It's bad enough we have to figure out why the Nemeton, a place of power located in California, spat out a bunch of Japanese demons! Couldn't they at least try Native American stuff before heading across the Pacific? At first I thought that was where they were going with the werecoyote thing. But that now seems a lot like the one-off storylines on Supernatural that they insert between the metaplot episodes.

Well, as far as True Blood goes, that wasn't all the shows fault, they were following the books, and the books jumped the shark on that front.

I agree, they should have either went Native American first, or stuck with the Druid and Celtic thing they had going in 3a. And that brings us to my biggest issue with s3, it isn't one homogenous season, this is clearly two separate seasons that they are calling one. It's not like they wanted 24episode seasons before, but were only getting 12 and finally got the 24 they wanted. They clearly had no f-ing clue what to do with 24 episodes.

I. Still holding a bit of hope that the werecoyote thing comes back, either towards the end on the season, or into the next. Keep in mind they have brought stuff up in one season then never did anything with it for a season or two. Prime example, Jackson and the neck clawing in season one not being explained until season 3
