Hey there, fellow fans of the deliciously dark and twisted! If you’ve been eagerly awaiting the return of Yellowjackets, brace yourself for a date that’s both hilarious and a little eerie: season 3 is set to premiere on February 14th. Yup, that’s Valentine’s Day. Now, that’s some cheeky scheduling, given the show’s disturbing themes. But hey, who said sharing a meal with your besties—no matter how unconventional—can’t be a special kind of bonding experience? Certainly not me!
For those who haven’t been swept up in the frenzy of Yellowjackets yet, here’s a quick catch-up. The show weaves a gripping tale about a group of incredibly talented high school soccer players who find themselves the lone survivors of a plane crash in a remote wilderness. This thrilling series dives into their transformation from a tight-knit team to fierce, survival-driven clans, all while exploring the echoing impact of their harrowing past as it reaches into their present lives, nearly a quarter-century later. It’s a wild ride of suspense and drama, reminding us that the past never truly stays behind.
This season brings with it some exciting fresh faces, including Joel McHale and Hilary Swank joining the beloved original cast. It’s anybody’s guess how long these new characters will last, considering the show’s penchant for sudden twists. You can catch all the action starting February 14 on Paramount+—that’s for those with the Showtime add-on—before it makes its big TV debut on February 16. International viewers won’t miss out either, as it’ll be streaming on Paramount+ globally.
So, mark your calendars, and let’s see what new and darker paths our favorite characters will tread!
