"Yellowjackets" tells the narrative of a team of wildly talented high-school girls soccer players who survive a plane crash deep in the Ontario wilderness. The series chronicles their descent from a complicated but thriving team to warring, cannibalistic clans, while also tracking the lives they have attempted to piece back together. Sophie Nélisse, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Sophie Thatcher and Sammi Hanratty star as the teenagers, while Melanie Lynskey, Tawny Cypress, Christina Ricci and Juliette Lewis portray their adult counterparts as they reveal the truth about their survival 25 years later.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Still at its very best when lost in the wilderness, Yellowjackets' third season is inescapably uneven but carried along effortlessly by its stronger elements.

Josh Bell Boston Globe The performances are consistently stellar, from the veterans to the relative newcomers, and Lynskey and Ricci especially shine in the present-day scenes, bringing welcome humor to their dark, frequently amoral characters. Jun 11, 2025 Full Review Sam Adams Slate We don’t need to know where we’re going, but we need the sense that we’re going somewhere. Otherwise we’ll start shaking that mystery box, listening for the rattle until we wonder if there’s anything inside it at all. Feb 22, 2025 Full Review Melanie McFarland Salon.com Yellowjackets isn’t quite one show but several of inconsistent quality joined by the flimsy glue of lingering questions that don’t seem all that complicated. Feb 21, 2025 Full Review Joe Lipsett Queer.Horror.Movies. The main reason that this finale works is because it keeps the present day storyline to a bare minimum. Apr 13, 2025 Full Review Alberto Carlos Espinof ...the series continues to give us everything that made us fall in love with it: that black humor, a certain macabre quality, a fascinating mystery that is wonderfully ambiguous...and a tremendously successful and growing cast. [Full review in Spanish] Feb 26, 2025 Full Review Rachel Tolleson The Mary Sue Yellowjackets continues to be a show where the characters make the worst decisions possible, but it serves the plot in a way that makes sense.

Zack K A teenage girl killing an 800 pound grizzly bear with a knife. That did it for me. Laughable. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/31/25 Full Review vineet p Plane crashed,they stuck in jungle,I am all for it.But when they started eating humans,I stopped watching show.I mean there were trees and stuff,they could have survived on that,so illogically weird show. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/11/25 Full Review Tyler d These writers need to be replaced. Shows don’t last when every character is unlikable & the dialogue is even worse. This went so downhill after season one. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/20/25 Full Review MC D Ridiculous shallow story that doesn't even remotely make sense. If you want to watch a show where you hate every single character, this is it. They are all vile idiots. Stupidly absurd show. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/20/25 Full Review A N Very slow to start and the flow of the show was off. Boring at times and struggling to tell the story. The season could have been 4 episodes and saved us all a lot of time. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/16/25 Full Review Elisha I Season 3 is a return to form—tense, twisted, and emotionally gripping. The stakes feel higher than ever, with the show leaning deeper into its psychological and survivalist roots. Some episodes are slower burns, but the payoff is consistently worth it. By the final stretch, the intensity is at a peak, delivering some of the most powerful moments of the series so far. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/15/25 Full Review Read all reviews
