This might just be one of the best shows made in the recent years.
A group of high school girls get lost in the Canadian wilderness. What ensues over the next 19 months becomes increasingly insane. Meanwhile, in the present, four of the Yellowjackets try to deal with a blackmailer and their own messed up coping mechanisms.
Although I have watched films and shows from a range of genres, I am usually drawn towards more light-hearted, wholesome media. So when I first watched the pilot, I was uncertain on how much I was enjoying the show. But as I continued to watch it, the mystery and thriller of the storyline had me entirely hooked.
The parallels between the teenage timeline and the adult timeline is so beautifully illustrated and written. This is a unique concept and all of the actors have done such an incredible job at portraying their characters - I hope to see them winning many awards for their performances in Yellowjackets.
If you think season 1 is good, and by the way, yes they used cannibalism as the initial hook, but the show is about so much more than that. If that's the sole reason you're watching, maybe you'd be better off looking elsewhere. Season 2 is even greater. Although the present-day timeline isn't always interesting to viewers (me included), it truly does "pick up" as the show goes onwards. I look forward to what the producers and writers are planning for future seasons.
