Yellow Jackets

Bend it like Beckham meet Heather's meets Lost meets Alive. Crazy shit, good so far.

Liking it.

Like a female version of Lord of the Flies, but taken all the way to 11 with the violence.

So does it anger incels?

Oh shit, watched the trailer. I'm intrigued...

YouTube video

It's good shit

The show is great so far. I love Christina Ricci and what she’s doing with her character, Misty. The younger version of her is also played well. A lot of dark humor

Just got green lit for season 2. Shows awesome

Best new show of 2021 hands down.

It's going to end on a cliffhanger most likely.

Definitely. Supposedly it’s been written for a 5 season arc. Idk if it’ll make it that far. Only so much you can drag out.

Watched first 2 eps last night and it's great.

This show is very bingeable.

Ok, this show IS really great, 6 eps in now.

I enjoyed the Evil Dead-ish homage, but the supernatural stuff seems a little inappropriate for this show. But maybe if it remains subtle enough it won't get too goofy. But I end up mostly laughing at the "horror" moments.

Oh, and is it possible for...

Spoiler:
a big ol fu#king deer to be walking around alive with maggots all up inside it?

Is that a thing? Or was it just some symbolic thing?

I just got done binging the season. Really enjoyed it for the most part.

There is absolutely an underlying supernatural element at play here, and it's primarily centered around

Spoiler:

. The finale provided some loose answers for a few things, but still left us with a ton of questions.

Glad it was greenlit for a second season. 👆

Well [spoiler]it’s because the woods is haunted and wants someone dead before it will let them eat anything. Hence the earlier episodes saying it “wants blood” [spoiler]

Can’t edit

Spoiler:
You also have that shadow-figure appearing to Jackie in her vision as she was dying: "I'm very happy that you joined us. We were waiting for you" -- presumably the same figure that Van noticed while she was in between... Blood/death rituals are definitely a thing here. Something clearly needs to sate the ancient gods of the sky and earth.

Hmm.. spoiler tags are malfunctioning for me. But anyway, yeah that's making some sense after the last episode I watched. I just hope it doesn't go too overboard. I'm seeing some hints that it might be going a little overboard, like with Taissa's strange behavior.

But still looking forward to finishing the show. I think I have 3 episodes left...

Sound like it's essentially a retelling of Lord of the Flies.

I finished this and liked it. But I have some questions...

For example, why is Shauna's daughter not as old as she should be...

But maybe we'll find out she loses the baby... hm..
