re: Yellowjackets: New Showtime Show

I was interested in this and I can’t stream this one cause I don’t have showtime. Any other options to watch this?

I think the show is decent. It's very similar to LOST in a lot of ways but obviously darker. Something big has to happen to Jackie as she is really the only prominent character that we haven't seen as an adult. I could see her being the one sending them the cards.

What if they suffered from some sort of traumatic event (or substance) in the woods and all went ape- shite crazy, and we're just seeing their current lives from the eyes of unreliable narrators?

That is an interesting theory. I just hope it isn't supernatural.

Starting to wonder if there is a supernatural element to it or they are all just fricked in the head from trauma.

There were two coaches, right? The one in the tree that was dead was the father of Travis and the other boy.

And then the guy whose leg got cut off is another coach?

---

That’s correct. Older head coach and younger, “hot” assistant coach. Pretty sure more than just crazy girl was giving him lustful looks when he took his shirt off or something in the first episode.

Interested to see what happens with the cabin. Surely someone is still alive around there because they saw the glare from the water.

As of now, I think they’re just selling that as a reflection off a window rather than a living person, but I guess we’ll see.

Sammy is SUPER creepy

Agreed. At first I thought they were going to give him social problems because he has two moms and kids give him shite for it, but now it’s clear he’s got something dark in him.

Jackie still alive

This wouldn’t surprise me. The showing of the necklace was pretty heavy-handed in order to lead us to assuming she’s dead, but the story needs to do a good job with getting us to that reveal (if that’s the case).

The faux-reporter political operative for Taissa is looking for other survivors, so more than the main cast were rescued.

Maybe getting his wife to frick some other dude was the husband’s true fantasy

I first wondered if he was there for some innocuous reason, like selling the hotel furniture.

But how did he not see his own car tailing him there? She wasn't exactly being stealthy.

Might also explain how the police and the auto body guy keep showing up, as if they're on a long leash, but being observed from a distance.

---

Auto body guy is too young/good looking for her. He's throwing himself at her and its obvious. Doesn't make sense. He's obviously tailing her, set up the fender bender, etc.


There's so much weird shite. I, too hope its not a supernatural thing.

SPOLERS!!!!!

This episode was much more exciting that episode 3. What were y'all's thought. It pissed me off when the girl noticed the weird carving on the tree and still didn't say anything.

Misty is even crazier than I thought. But serious question, how can you hang yourself like that by yourself? I guess it you have enough slack to get to the cab, maybe I'm overthinking it. Also, you kill a deer and you ain't eating that backstap? City slickers. Loved the Dinosaur Jr. reference, and the rumor about Flex's rib cage (perfect 90s rumor to make fun of). lmao

This Travis guy… there is something they’re not telling us

Yeah, his entire character existing makes zero sense. Shauna seeing a kid Jackie in her letterman jacket when she was with him was interesting. I wonder if that is some foreshadowing, or her subconscious telling her not to trust him. I am really hoping Jackie didn't end up as a shish kabob and there is an adult version running around somewhere.

I get the strange feeling that Misty knew Travis was dead before they got there, and why were the cops already heading there when no-one but them seemed to be around?
