If theres any show deserving of all the buzz buzz buzz, its Yellowjackets. Were still shaking (and crying) from the events of the season two finale and with the anticipation of the series long-awaited return. Today, we finally got some news on that front and the wait for this Sapphic masterpiece is almost over. For the uninitiated (first of all, what are you waiting for? this show is incredible), the series has been described by Showtime as equal parts survival epic, psychological horror story, and coming-of-age drama. Its from the minds of creators Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson (Narcos), and follows a group of high school girls soccer players who (mostly) survive a plane crash deep in the wilderness. The remaining players and other passengers must band together to survive injuries, the elements, and a darkness that seemingly lives in the woods and within themselves. The series follows their rapid descent from friends, teammates, and lovers into savage clans. At the same time, it chronicles the survivors 25 years later, trying to live their lives, hide their secrets, and deal with the fact that the past and what they discovered in the wilderness is far from being over. When season three picks up, the former teammates will be dealing with the aftermath of the dramatic events of season two. Heres what else we know about the upcoming season.
