Not shocked, but man, that is rough for this show in particular. I hope they can get it back on track after what I felt was a lackluster S2, but I'm not optimistic.

This is where I'm at. I loved S1 but S2 was meh in comparison and I've all but forgotten about this show, which is a shame because Christina and Melanie are incredible in it and the premise is A=

tbh I feel like they were one of the shows people talked about when the WGA strike was happening where a "mini room" is part of what cursed Season 2. So with a full room of writers and enough time, maybe they're fine?

I feel like season 2 was always going to struggle: we all knew how it would end, and the writers just had the unenviable task of filling in the middle.

But also, I think they spent ages writing season 1, and then only had a short time to write season 2 which is why is meandered a lot and didn't have the same sharpness.

Idgi how did we know it would end? I think Juliette Lewis’ abrupt decision to leave obviously affected the writing a lot. Apart from that I didn’t mind S2. It managed to keep up the suspense and mystery elements well.

Good point - I was thinking more of the younger yellowjackets: I think we knew that by the end of season 2, we'd pretty much understand how the cannibalism ritual start and that [spoiler] Shauna's baby wouldn't be in the plotline any more . It felt like filler to have to wade through storyline to get there.

The adults..... I don't think there was even much of a story line? They ended up at Lottie's cult and shenanigans ensued.
