Yellowjackets wtf? – Details, episodes & analysis

Hey everyone, we missed the podcast and decided to come back and check out one of the inspirations for Yellowjackets, namely William Golding award-winning 1954 novel Lord of the Flies, about a group of young boys stranded on an island and the tension between civility and savagery that ensues.

Wendy and Jason are thrilled to be joined by Wendy’s daughter Kasi for this ep. Kasi is a middle school teacher and knows this text well.

Hey Yellowjacketeers, here’s a little holiday surprise for you. Join Daphne, Jason, Jenny, and quizmaster Penny for some YJ trivia. We’re pretty rusty so let’s see if you guys can get more questions right than we did….

Note/correction: We looked it up, and it turns out that the teddy bear in one of the Yellowjacket’s bedrooms just kind of looks like Laura Lee’s bear, Leonard. But Leonard’s other eye is missing, and his nose is quite askew.

In case you forgot this show is about ritual sacrifice, here’s an episode to remind you. We thought it was disturbing, and fantastic, with tons to talk about.

A bit of tonal whiplash this week with everything from suicidal ideation to song-and-dance hallucination, and that’s what we love about this show: a single episode can be bleak, thrilling, hilarious, and horrific.

Heh, Misty thought she met her match in Crystal, but no one can out-Misty Misty…. Also, Lauren Ambrose is just Liv Hewson from the future, right? We think she’s knocking it out of the park as adult Van. Penny, Wendy, and Jason all loved this week’s episode, no lie, so join us as we dig in!
