Yellowjackets: Two Truths and a Lie (2023)
Season 2, Episode 5
3/10
Uninspiring teen drama
10 August 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Season 1 was pretty poor and went downhill as it went on. Season 2 therefore didn't have a lot to live up to and began on an equally lazy tone.

I'm at a loss to see just what others are seeing in this show. The writing is laughably bad and at times seems like an experiment within the writers' room to come up with the most ludicrous storylines, for instance, a character (Crystal/Kristen) who was conspicuously absent from the entirety of S1 suddenly turns up and becomes Misty's "bestie" (incidentally a term not popularised until the late 2000s) only to meet her end during a completely cringeworthy and clichéd scene.

The show has now turned into nothing more than an annoying teen drama without one redeeming character to root for. The only reason I'm continuing is that I'm in awe at how bad this is and have a morbid curiosity to see what further levels it will sink to.
