    After an incredible pilot episode followed by a few slower episodes, I was a bit concerned this series wouldn't make good on its initial promises. But episode 9 absolutely nails it: unpredictable writing, captivating performances and likeable characters all come together as the girls slowly begin their descent into madness. This show knows exactly when to tease and when to reveal, andAfter an incredible pilot episode followed by a few slower episodes, I was a bit concerned this series wouldn't make good on its initial promises. But episode 9 absolutely nails it: unpredictable writing, captivating performances and likeable characters all come together as the girls slowly begin their descent into madness. This show knows exactly when to tease and when to reveal, and as a result it's some of the most entertaining TV I've ever seen. If you like a combination of horror, suspense, mystery and even dark humour, I'd consider this a must-watch.… Expand

    I love these LOST-kinda shows when they're done right (not looking at you La Brea). This was right up my alley and I can't wait for episode 2.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So far so good. I finished episode one and you can't beat the intrigue and suspense this first episode has laid the groundwork for. Great soundtrack too!… Expand

    Gruesome, gripping and blackly comic, this tightly-plotted mystery-horror is meaty in all the right (and wrong) ways.

    Naturally, everyone mentions “Lost” as the “Yellowjackets” antecedent, but “The Leftovers,” Damon Lindelof’s superior, baroque creation, is a better comparison.

    Casting here alone should win awards for capturing the essence of a decade when raw, untamed and dangerous young women surged to the forefront of music and film. Ricci (“The Ice Storm”), Lynskey (“Heavenly Creatures”) and Lewis (“Natural Born Killers”) kill in “Yellowjackets,” figuratively and literally. ... If it holds up (I’ve seen the first six episodes available for review), “Yellowjackets” may turn out to be my favorite show of 2021, even though it stretches into 2022.
