When ever i am in a hamlet i leave Immediately. Every citizin lives in bare huts and dont DO anything. I expect farmers to work in the feilds in the day but they just stay in huts until they die. Why dont guards patrol? why dont smiths smith? Why isint thre any cool buildings like a statue? why isint there places for herds of cows with fences? Wagons full of hay? It seems more of a hamlet of cavemen then a hamlet of men men! i know it will be difficult but is there a plan in a fututre release for this? Its just so DULL and prevents immersion. Sorry if I sound whiny.

You can see many of the upcoming plans on this page. One that touches chiefly on your concerns, Villager/farmer schedules/activities, under the Trader Adventurer Role, has even been on the short-lived list of short term releases. Guards used to exist, and should come back at the latest when Toady gets to some of the Thief Adventurer Role plans, if not earlier, according to the recent DF Talk. Having megaprojects like statues are probably tricky to map out in a fashion that makes them interesting and not just carbon copies of each other, but will probably come in as well. Pastures exist mostly in the small villages, they just aren't fenced.

It's all planned, and will appear some time (like in KOs ninjapost).  In the next release I'm under the impression there may be some ruffians moving around causing trouble.  But I think full NPC scheduling will be further down the line, mainly because fortress mode skills have yet to be fully integrated into adventure mode.  When that happens, you won't be able to move in hamlets for the men men surrounding you.
