The more characters that stick around every season, the less attention they would all receive. I'd much rather them spend future episodes going over the lore of the TW verse then waste time with scenes from more characters who we don't fully understand. But they barely talk about the TW lore anyways. We still barely know anything about the Hellhound, La Bete (e.g. what makes him so special? Is it by the nature of his transformation or just by the nature of his personality? Why is he the only werewolf with white eyes?), The DD, Valack, etc.

In fact, they still haven't even explained what the other chimeras were mixed with, nor even Josh or Corey for that matter, and it's already been 19 epidoes.

I was saddened by Josh's death because I knew it was going to happen from since he didn't put on the mask, and it sucked that he didn't even see it coming. I liked him, although he didn't say much. I hope we at least get to find out what he was mixed with. That's exactly the point. They don't go into lore because there are too many characters No, that's not why. Characters can talk about lore all the time. There are many opportunities to. Even when they have moments when they can give a lot of information, they're always very vague. A prime example was when Gerard and Chris revealed to Parrish that he's a Hellhound. They didn't say anything that we already knew, when it was a perfect opportunity to give us more information. Another example is when Valack keeps talking about the DD ruining his life, but never says how...I really hope they plan to address this. They have many scenes of the DD doing things that levae us clueless, instead of having them talk and give some information about themselves. Screen time isn't the problem, especially since characters are all involved in the same issue, so interconnected that information about secondary characters is still revelant enough for main characters to talk about it.

I agree with Nervous. They probably don't have a "series bible". It seems like they are vague on things because they are not yet sure what they want to do, so they don't want to etch ideas in stone that they may one day go against.
