Totally missed the part about Lottie being a schizo. Thought it was anxiety or ADD, but this makes more sense. Spoiler She also ran out of her meds And of course the crazy one was able to convince the group of going crazy lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew she ran out from watching it the first time, but thought they were for anxiety or the like. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBW Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Ok so I just finished the season. Yeah in less than a week. 😂 I’m a little confused about the opening scene where the girl was running and fell in the hole. At first we were lead to believe it was Shawna because the necklace but then Shawna gave the necklace to Jackie in high school, so it looks like that was Jackie….except she froze to death. So who the hell was it? also they’re showing what we suspect was cannabism but we haven’t actually seen them eat anyone yet. Unless the plan to thaw out Jackie and roast her in season 2.

Yeah man - that's part of the mystery. Who the hell was it. I addressed part of it earlier in this thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it’s really a mystery because every girl with long dark hair is accounted for. Even Lottie who is evidently leading the cult back home and blackmailing the others. the other unaccounted for person is Javi. He ran off but to where?

we_gotta_believe Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 The thing that probably bothers me way more than it should, is the thumbnail graphic they have for the show where an actual yellow jacket is on Jackie's face. Like wtf is that about when we never see a single yellow jacket on the show, let alone on her face. I need the world to make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBW Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I’m just gonna put this link here. It was early in the run, but Juliet lewis is a Fing train wreck. Does she even know what the story is? If they don’t kill her off early in season 2, idk what they expect to get out of this. Young Nat is a Fing gem, but Juliet basically ruins her character and then to openly say Her character is sheet?!?!? Wow! [\spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawkins4prez Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Shameless S.11 is a total comeback for the show. Top 5 season for the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawkins4prez Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 I binged like 5 episodes of Yellow Jackets last night. It's entertaining enough but I can now confirm that Amazon's The Wilds is a better show with much less fanfare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do enjoy the mystery of Yellowjackets - is it supernatural or all a product of them going crazy from being alone in the wild for so long 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are both basically Lost with teenage girls. Or at least Lost when it was still a plane crash show before going off the rails. YJ's has a supernatural angle, The Wilds goes with sci-fi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemack8 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 One thing I will say about Yellowjackets - everyone seemed to be a fan of Shonna - I thought she sucked, both the teenage and the adult version. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two shows even have some direct counterparts among the girls. There's the religious one, the black winner takes all one, the ginger tomboy, the nerd McGuyver, the rich one and yes there is a black haired average looking "Shauna" as the main character in The Wilds. Again, I think all of these characters are more nuanced and the dynamic between them is livelier in The Wilds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would lean The Wilds atm but admittedly have it fresher in my mind due to the 2nd season just finishing so that could be why. More material and context to judge it on. I tend to like the darker/more supernatural shows so if that's what happens with YJ then that is gonna be my answer. But if they chicken out of it for the unreliable narrator angle that's gonna piss me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since yellow jackets got so much more pub I decided to watch it and then decide which of the 2 I'm going forward with (only room for one of em, right?). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you could definitely watch both though, if you wanted. They aren't mirror image shows, and youll see some of that more with s2 of Wilds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemack8 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 So I'm a few episodes in on S2 of The Wilds - wasn't crazy about them introducing another group but it hasn't been terrible. I just finished the episode where Spoiler The kid that got the downer gets mad at the one other kid and holds him down in the tent and faps over top of him - WTF This show is pretty ridiculous @dawkins4prez @JBENT87 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawkins4prez Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 I'll get around to s2 Wilds but have been stuck around ep2 for a while now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
