The refrain of the opening theme of the series East “No return, no reason.” Also remember in the pilot, when the yellow trucks literally wore animal masks during their hunting and feast on because they had become wild?

“Yellowjackets” season 3 started slow, but episode 6, “Thanksgiving (Canada)”, was one of the best episodes in the series and a blow in the arm that “Croak” and “A Normal Boring Life” followed. Hopefully this season can better stick the landing than the theft of Yellowjackets!
“Yellowjackets” is in trouble on Paramount + with Showtime, with new episodes in the first on Friday.
