Post Holiday Blues Streaming 25' - Yellowjackets - Season Three

Yellowjackets concluded it's third, twisty season last week. Streaming in Australia on Paramount+, the gender swapping Lord of the Flies story follows a group of teenagers involved in a 1996 plane crash, and follows the consequences of the event in their adult lives.

The third season landed in mid-February, with a double episode comeback. Following an almost two year hiatus (along with rumours of a "bonus" episode floating around) the hit Showtime original was back.

This return was a little slower than the gap between season one and two.

This season Hilary Swank was cast in a recurring role, joining  Melanie Lynskey, Tawny Cypress, Ella Purnell, Christina Ricci, Lauren Ambrose, Steven Krueger & Sarah Desjardins.

Watch out spoilers below about the season finale, Full Circle. By the episode title, one could almost imagine this was the series finale. Well it could very well be. The series has not yet been renewed. However quick spoiler, the show did end on a cliffhanger, meaning we very much need a fourth season.

SPOILERS BELOW!!!

Natalie is furious with Misty for destroying the emergency transponder, but agrees to not tell the team if Misty helps her. 

The livestock has mysteriously died, leading the team to declare a new hunt. Taissa and Van try to rig the card selection so Hannah is selected, but Shauna catches on and manipulates it so that Mari is chosen.

Mari is chased, but the hunt is largely a distraction to get Natalie the satellite phone. Mari springs the covered spike pit trap and is impaled. 

After the feast, Shauna realizes Natalie is missing; Natalie has taken the satellite phone to the top of a cliff. A male voice on the other end of the phone responds.

In the present, Taissa buries Van's body, but not before carving out her heart and eating it. 

Misty interrogates Callie. Callie admits to killing Lottie; Callie had pushed Lottie down the stairs in a moment of rage. Callie reveals this to Jeff, and they both flee the house and disconnect from Shauna.

Taissa and Misty meet to discuss what to do about Shauna next. Shauna finds the house empty and the discarded note that had accompanied the DAT tape. She rips it up and journals about her desire to claim her power back.

I do hope the series is renewed, as I really (need) want to know how the OG Yellowjackets were rescued. I felt like they might get there this season, however it never came.

I reckon a fourth season is a go, its easily Showtime's biggest show. Even all the Dexter spin-offs don't get the same attention as this survival series.

This week Daredevil concludes ahead of Easter and hopefully I finish the White Lotus third season over Easter. Catching up on all the holiday TV has been a mission LOL
