YJ 2.09 SPOILERS!!!

what really fucks me up about nats death was that she was the only one of the 6 whos life wasn’t actively getting worse in the 1-2 weeks leading up to the hunt.

shauna was in the midst of getting investigated (and probably going to prison for) murdering her lover, with police at lottie’s “intentional community” to track her down as the hunt was happening. her relationship with her daughter was deeply fucked up. overall, things were really going to shit for her.

taissa was sleepwalking again. her wife was dying in the hospital and on the verge of divorcing her. she ran to van for help, for comfort, and ended up taking off her wedding ring and kissing her.

van was dying of cancer. she was using pain meds to cope with it, and letting her business go into debt because it didn’t matter, because she was going to be gone soon anyways. as lottie stated, she more than just lost her spark—she was completely hopeless.

misty had a range of things going on: her relationship/relationship struggles with walter, her own involvement in the adam martin situation, her feelings of isolation from the other girls. while it’s harder to point to one thing and go THATS WHAT WAS WRONG WITH MISTY, like a real human she’s more complex than that and still was not doing well.

lottie was terrified. her visions were back, and so were her friends, and her only solution to either was the hunt. she just wanted the wilderness to leave her alone, and she did what she could to get it to.

natalie, once her attempt was over, was the only one who was getting better leading up to the hunt. she was getting clean, getting answers about travis, reconnecting with lottie, seeming more and more stable and at peace with every episode. she starts season 2 off resisting everything lottie and her community has to offer, and then in her own way, adjusts and becomes a part of it. her wardrobe shifts from her regular clothes, to more flowy, lottie-like shawls, and finally, full heliotrope in the finale.

for most of the other girls, death would have been a release from their problems-some of which would have resulted in them dying soon anyway. nat was the only one who didn’t. this is what destroys me the most about her death: she was the only one doing better, and she was the one to die.

These are my top TV shows that I watched in 2022. As with the movies, I'm posting this now because I never got around to it last year.

Also like the movies, these are just what I watched in 2022, not series that came out in 2022. They also have to be new to me in 2022, so no series with new seasons that I’d already been following. These aren’t necessarily the best shows, just ones I really liked or made an impression on me. I’m including both running series and limited or miniseries.

These shows are in no particular order, I just arranged the posters how I thought they'd looked the best. The shows are:

This is Going to Hurt

Shining Girls

The Haunting of Bly Manor

For All Mankind

Unbelievable

Five Days at Memorial

Succession

The Patient

Yellowjackets

#artie thoughts #artie's top 9 #tv shows #top tv series of 2022 #this is going to hurt #shining girls #the haunting of bly manor #for all mankind #unbelievable #five days at memorial #succession #the patient #yellowjackets #I can't actually remember if I started Yellowjackets in 2021 or 2022 #so I put it here #I started tracking my shows on serializd in 2023 so it should be more accurate from now on #not that I always remember to log episodes lol

I have so many feelings about Van and Tai. I love them, can you imagine being Coach Ben watching these two girls find a way to hold on to each other and carry each other through and fall in love even in the woods? Seeing a couple of gay kids be celebrated by their teammates? It wouldn't change their situation but it would still mean so much. Those two girls represent hope in the face of adversity and it's just beautiful.

So I’m assuming it was Coach Ben who set the cabin on fire and um…what the fuck? Like I know you’re disturbed by their quick descent into ritual cannibalism and all that but they are in a horrible situation and they’re just trying to live! You’re really gonna force them to freeze to death because of it? Like come on, they were always going to escape the cabin. The kids are survivors, he had to know that, he has seen the atrocities they are willing to commit to survive. Like damn, I can forgive cannibalism but I draw the line at arson, I guess?

#yellowjackets spoilers #yellowjackets season 2 #yellowjackets season 2 episode 9 #a bit of a rant #yellowjackets #adding more tags on this instead of making another post but I have more thoughts:#cause the thing is I still like Coach Ben #and I think we are supposed to #if/when she get a third season I want to see the struggle the kids have with knowing that he actively tried to kill them #and I want to see him come to terms with that as well #did he really think they were fully irredeemable #or did he think it would cause less pain in the long run to end it for them all at once with the fire #since otherwise they would continue to get hunted and eaten one by one #and if so was Coach Ben even planning to survive the incident #I’m pretty sure he is going to die in the woods but I really want him to secretly be alive because that’s interesting character stuff #but yeah he’s definitly dying under that weird tree

I'm so into the idea that Van's job in this community is storytelling. She's not just Tai's #1, she also has her own role.

so that's a wrap on yellowjackets season 2.

uhhh i understand why so many people hated it. i didn't love it the way i loved season 1, some writing choices were glaringly problematic even within the context of a tonally dark show and the adult timeline had great individual scenes but a load of bloat and tbf, blatant nonsense. i think the biggest issue is how much they tried to cram into 9 episodes??

9 episodes is not enough room for all the storylines they had going on. particularly in the adult timeline where all of these events are taking place over the course of, what, a week!?!?

#yellowjackets #yellowjackets spoilers #tangentially #i am frustrated and sad #i didn't hate it i love this cast and themes and eerieness and music #but so much went wrong in so many ways #and there was not enough room in 9 episodes to carry all this story

remember when i thought i was gonna love yellowjackets season 2

#you kind of had to be there it lasted for about two weeks. and a year before that #this is a lie because there's a few episodes i really liked spread across the season and i also was never like oh this is awful!!! until #like episode 7 that's when i just had to make my distaste known #btw they released the script for that episode does that mean they submitted episode 7 for the emmys. i was gonna say it's my least favorite #but there's also episodes 8 and 9. i think 8 might be my least favorite. then again episode 9...#<- also true of stranger things with the piggyback #i'll answer my yellowjackets asks eventually btw...eventually...it might be six months from now #it's gonna be like what they said about the bonus episode probably closer to s3 than to s2 #i'm kidding it won't be. but yeah #yj
