I Don't Give a Fuck if you "Don't need another streaming service" You should be watching Yellowjackets.

I don't even feel like writing a review, you should just feel shame that you weren't cool enough to be the friend that recommended this. Watch the pilot and see what I mean.

Yes this is the real pilot

I love this show, I LOVE THIS SHOW. This show is so made for me it made me question the nature of objective reality. Like, am I experiencing things outside of myself of just conjuring new content out of constellations of references in my past?

Serving Natural Born Killers

This show has all my 90's queens. Christina Ricci! Julliette Lewis! and Melanie Lynsky ! Whom most people will probably now recognize from Don't look Up but the real G's (and specifically the queer women) will remember her from Peter Jackson's early masterpiece Heavenly Creatures one of my most favorite movies of all time.

Do I just enjoy content about troubled teen girls…? Might need to unpack that for myself…

The 90's queens star as the grown-up versions of a group of girls we follow in flashback scenes. The girls are the Yellowjacket girl's soccer team whose plane was downed in the Canadian wilderness as they are on their way to Nationals.

Undefeated!

The girls are trapped in the outback for a yet to be known amount of time, but what we learn in the opening scene of the first episode is that their quest for survival sees them turn from plucky but scared teens into cannibalistic warring tribes. Yes you read that last line correctly .

Yeah, man, they go full Lord of the Flies

PLEASE! WATCH THIS DAMN SHOW SO I HAVE MORE PEOPLE TO TALK ABOUT IT WITH!!!!
