If 'Yellowjackets' Is Renewed for Season 4, It Needs To Lean Full-Tilt Into Horror
If Yellowjackets is renewed for Season 4, the show needs to lean away from dark comedy and fully embrace its horror influences.
Season 3 of Yellowjackets is a brutal time in the wilderness, with a pile-on of misery and death. Major deaths and a “full circle” reveal are catching fans up to the macabre Antler Queen cult introduced in the flashforward glimpses of the pilot episode. However, the show implements some dark comedy to try and tone down how dark things can get, and, unfortunately, it's holding the show back from going fully into the horror of its premise. Season 4 has yet to be announced, and if there is another chapter about the teen survivors and their traumatized adult counterparts, the show needs less comedy.
