tv review. Yellowjackets season 1.
really good story telling showing both the past and the present and interweaving the two
The past has strong Lord of the Flies and LOST vibes. The present feels like Twin Peaks, showing how under nice suburban life it can be not so nice.
Lots of characters to like or dislike.
3 hobbits

I tried watching that recently and gave up.
Season 1 I found some what intriguing, but heavily preferred the bits set in the past.
Season 2 I found myself browsing my phone during the scenes set in the present because I wasn’t interested in them whatsoever / bored.
Season 3 I made it to about 1/3 of the way through mostly ignoring the present, until one person is facing punishment in the past and I realised I was bored of it all, and if that person (the very last character I liked) was gone so was I. So I read an overview covering the rest of the season instead of watching it which was more than sufficient. Watched the last couple of mins of the final episode just to see the cliffhanger though.
