Has anyone watched the pilot of Yellowjackets on Showtime? It’s free online. It’s about a female soccer team in 1996 that survives a plane crash in Northern Canada and it devolves from there. There’s cultism, implied cannibalism, and Christina Ricci.

It alternates between the present and the plant crash in 1996. Everyone is well cast, and both casts are stacked with talent. Loved the pilot and can’t wait to see where the show goes.

I'm hooked. Four episodes in. I have a lot of theories and I think the Lost fans of this forum would like it.

Makes sense since 3 is where it really started to lose me, there was a lot of stuff I wasn’t feeling in it and 4 kinda continued that trend. Might continue on a rainy day

I like it a lot. Seems like it's going to get pretty dark, but I'm hoping for sooner rather than later.

Started ep 5 ready to give it a chance to get better. Immediately greeted with the incredibly cringey dance scene. Yikes!

Still being patient……….

I keep hearing people talk about this show but then I think back to this thread where Curtis takes a giant dump on it

But Curtis also loves How To with John Wilson or whatever so maybe his taste is dead

Personally I have enjoyed it quite a bit but I see why some people wouldn't. I think it helps having grown up in the 90's because a lot of it feels nostalgic to me.

The whole show just has kind of an eerie feel to it.

Nofo, I was unsure, but you sold me with "and Christina Ricci."

I have Showtime so I'll check this out this weekend.
