Showtime Renewed Season 3 For Horror Mystery Series ‘Yellowjackets’

Fans of “Yellow Jackets” have something to look forward to as the acclaimed series has been renewed for its third season before the season 2 release. This is great news for all as the creative team behind the show had exciting ideas in store for this season that will make up for a great season.  The show has been fairly successful and viewers have connected to it through some really interesting plotlines and characters. At the beginning of the second season, as the girls have seemingly made it out of the forest, they’re left with a new set of horrors. For one thing, they’re closer to their tragedies than they realize. The show is a fairly unique one in terms of style and makes you want to know what will happen next. I’m looking forward to seeing how things play out for the girls and how they manage this whole new set of challenges thrown their way. I’m sure the show will also be able to bring us more fun, intense and thrilling moments. Season 2 looks like it will be even more fascinating than the first one. I have a feeling that this season will top everything we saw so far.

About the series?

The series is set in 1996 and tells the story of a group of high school soccer players who are on their way to Seattle for a national tournament. While flying over Canada, their plane crashes deep in the wilderness. After spending the last 19 months in the woods, they are finally rescued, but only after they all agree to participate in a Truth and Reconciliation Commission as part of their post-accident rehabilitation. As they attempt to re-adjust to society, they face a difficult choice: reveal the dark secrets they’ve been hiding since their plane crashed, or return to familiar silence and cover-up.   Yellowjackets is an anthology of eight episodes that depict the players’ attempts to survive in the forest. The first seven episodes are composed of individual short stories, while the eighth episode is a short scene. 

What makes this series interesting?

There is a lot of content in the series that makes it stand out from other similar shows. The first thing that makes this show interesting is the fact that it is set in the future and revolves around post-apocalyptic survivors. This allows for some unique and different stories to be told. Many of the shows that are similar to Yellow Jackets usually take place in the modern day, so there is something fresh about it being set in 1996. Another thing that makes this show stand out from others is that most of the characters cannot read. They only know how to write their names and a few other words. This means that the importance of having a keen sense of language and comprehension is stressed in most of the stories.

What is the targeted audience?

The target audience for this show is primarily young adults since most of the characters are teenagers. There are a few older adults in the series as well, but they play a small part in most of the stories. There may be some people who are interested in watching this show because they think it will be similar to Lost or The Walking Dead, but that is not the case. This show will not have any zombie-like creatures walking around or a large group of survivors trying to survive off the land.

What are the show’s strengths?

The strengths of this show are its ability to connect with an audience and tell a variety of stories. The main section of this series is the seven short stories, which follow individual characters and show small bits of their past while they are still trapped in the forest. These short stories all have some sort of connection to one another, but they do not always end up intersecting. Overall, these stories have been a hit with fans and it shows in the ratings.
