Yellowjackets is intriguing. A bit ridiculous but intriguing.

It’s supposed to be a much more complex and modern all-female Lord of the Flies, which is a terrible book, but I think this show has potential.

Spoiler!

they definitely didn’t go for realism. It’s just as outlandish as the book. Moreso even. These girls are apparently stranded for 19 months and they have fancy clothes and headware that actual civilizations would take decades, generations even, to produce. Not to mention the ridiculousness that they’d turn to ritualistic cannibalism and warfare.

But the future situations look interesting. Curious to see how that develops. Hopefully we only get a minimal amount of the silky Lord of the Flies stuff.
