I didn’t love this episode. While it offered some key pieces of character development for three of our characters (despite still only being a guest star – or, perhaps a recurring character – Captain Batel is getting a heck of a lot of screen time), the episode felt a bit muddled at times in how […]
Everything can benefit from having Rhys Darby. And boy, did this outing from Strange New Worlds absolutely soar with his addition to the proceedings as Trelane, a trickster character from The Original Series that we now know – thanks to a delightful voice over appearance from John de Lancie – is officially a part of […]
When you end a season on a cliffhanger and then wait so long to release the next season that the season after that one starts production, it becomes hard to hide whether or not certain characters make it through the resolution of said cliffhanger alive and mostly well. And when you release a trailer that […]
The Tom Cruise-led version of Mission: Impossible has come to an end with the eighth film in the series. They have produced some of the best spy action films, rivalling competitors like Bond and Bourne due to their terrific stunt work and focus on teamwork. Many A-list actors have appeared as enemies and allies of […]
I just . . . don’t understand what the writers are trying to do with these final three episodes. I really don’t. The revelation of who killed Lottie – while earned in the sense that it was hinted at in previous episodes with the evidence Walter and Misty found – makes little to no sense […]
I can’t recall a series that has managed to kill off not one but two of my favorite characters in a single season (not even Game of Thrones, but that was largely because the series eventually became allergic to actually offing key characters – something that, for all its faults, one cannot accuse Yellowjackets of […]
There are two main ways a series can introduce a “twist” and make it land within the confines of the show’s universe. First, the writers can throw breadcrumbs out along the way to the reveal, things that viewers can go back and discover later once the twist has been revealed (even though this grounding device […]
RIP Edwin, we hardly knew you. But boy, are things about to take a turn out in the wilderness. And in the present, well, things aren’t looking so hot for Van at the moment (what are the odds that Other Tai honors that DNR Van signed back in the beginning of the season – yeah, […]
Well, I, for one, think that episode should have been titled “What the fuck?!?”, because, much like the mystery bespeckled man at the end of the episode, I screamed that at the screen upon seeing that there were real live people coming upon the camp. Who are they? Where did they come from? Why are […]
In the pantheon of episode endings, this one was a doozie. From Teen Shauna finally stepping into the role of, well, leader, to threaten the other Yellowjackets into voting to convict Coach Ben to the revelation that Adult Lottie is dead, that’s a pretty visceral one-two punch to close out the episode. This was also […]
