Photo: Paul Sarkis/SHOWTIME Yellowjackets is over, and suddenly you have all kinds of free time to fill, time that used to be well spent waiting for new episodes, browsing Reddit fan theories, tweeting your most brain-dead predictions, and shipping Lottie and Laura Lee. Not to mention the time spent actually watching the show. Yellowjackets combines a multitude of different genres, and it tends to be self-consciously referential about its influences.
The Wilds The Wilds, which premiered a year before Yellowjackets, is sort of a Madagascar–The Wild confluence situation, right down to the name. The Amazon Prime series follows a group of teen girls butting heads and surviving in the wild after a plane crash but approaches the material with less horror and no A-list names. Call it the ABC Family take on YJ. A worthy substitute for when you need your fix .
Lost We wouldn’t even be having this conversation if it weren’t for Lost. The plane crash, the survival, the supernatural, the flash-forwards … Yellowjackets’ success is owed in part to its weekly-release model — a throwback to pre-streaming times — which allows for buzz and anticipation, to grow. Lost was the apex of using weekly serialization to build suspense back when it was still the dominant form.
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me Yellowjackets made a funny, unsettling David Lynch homage this season, when Shauna has an Eraserhead nightmare in which she births a twitching roast chicken. But the best bit of Lynch to recommend as post-YJ viewing is his 1992 film, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. Something about Shauna and Jackie’s relationship is extremely Donna and Laura: jealousy and love, secrets and trauma, hooking up with the other’s boyfriend so as to really know her and possibly become her.
