Didn't Scott flat out say he would join Derek's pack in s2? "As long as we do it my way?" Or something like that? I would think a flat out declaration would qualify as joining, even if he was a secretive douche the whole time. But as you said, they're too inconsistent for it to mean anything anyway. Beta vs Omega, pack vs not pack. It's all pretty relative anymore.

I wish they would've taken an extra season to sort all of these things out before they brought any other mythologies into play. If they would have left the Gerard problem in s2 but gotten rid of the Kanima I think we could have had a very informative season that would've given us a good base line for any subsequent seasons. They could've maybe touched upon the Druid thing, but not delved too deeply. I don't remember him saying that. But in 212 he flat-out declared that Derek was not his Alpha (as he forced the paralyzed Derek to bite Gerard).

They should have at least cut back on all the slow-mo scenes and used the time to provide some more exposition. Given that the first two seasons were only twelve episodes, we are really into what could be considered the fourth season. But even after all this time (40 episodes) we still have very little hard canon on werewolves. Although, what with the proliferating plot holes, I don't think that canon is a big priority for Jeff.

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.
