Yellowjackets

Season 1 was really good, but starting with Season 2, it isn't the same TV show anymore. It's the kind of show that invents a lot of nonsensical bull... just to extend its run. In the end, I'm 100% sure that viewers will have more questions than answers. The current timeline is overloaded with events yet lacks proper character development-you can fast-forward through more than half of that portion of the show. When Season 3 began, I decided to give it a try, but I eventually gave up. The clichés had already started, which means it won't be the final season; it will just drag on unnecessarily as they keep inventing whatever nonsense-like dreams, etc.-just to fill a 50-minute episode.

I finally gave in and gave Yellowjackets a try after hearing so many great things about it. I actually liked it much more than I thought I would, to the point where I'm actually mad at myself for putting it off as long as I did. All the twists and turns will keep on the edge of your seat every episode to the point it becomes addicting. It has everything you want in a good show...drama, mystery, comedy, action, etc. There's not a bad episode in the series, there's so slow episodes but not bad episodes. The acting is what really carries the show though. Melanie Lynskey deserves every bit of praise that she's been getting for her role. She's so good that it's the type of performance that's going to lead to even bigger things for her.

This little thing was recommended to me by my son. I am not the biggest of horror fans or teenage stuff. But this is not that.

This is a VERY well told story and has superior acting first by Lynskey and Lewis and Ricci, and the rest are doing great. Beautifully filmed as well.

Go beyond the pilot and get ready for some quality storytelling!

I was looking for a new show to binge and since Yellowjackets has gotten nothing but great reviews from both critics and audience alike I chose this. I'm glad I did because it is something both original and entertaining. I know a lot of people are comparing this to Lord of the Flies and I can definitely see that comparison, it has that kind of feel to the show but also something original. It's an intense mystery thriller that will keep you guessing and wanting more throughout the series. You end up becoming so invested in it that you can't wait to see what happens next and you'll want to binge it as quickly as possible. The entire cast is great here but Melanie Lynskey and Christina Ricci are the real standouts here. Both were just nominated for an Emmy, as was the show itself for best drama. It also currently has a 97% on Rotten Tomatoes. That's how good this is, it's being nominated for every major award their is. I was really looking forward to Season 2 because there are still a lot of unanswered questions that need to be answered but for every answer they provide, there are more questions. Season 2 just ended and there's still way too many unanswered questions.

This show WAS great. But now in season 3 the writing has just gotten so bad that nothing even makes much sense anymore. It's just all over the place now. They just keep adding more and more new mysteries without ever finishing the previous ones! They just seem to phase each mystery out with a new one. And it's gotten to the point that not a single character is even likeable anymore, except maybe Misty. Shauna is so unhinged it's not even realistic. I didn't think i could hate her character any more, but she manages to get worse in every episode, both young & grown versions. I'm losing interest due to their inability to ever actually finish a mystery and because nobodies actions ever make sense anymore!
