That collective buzzing you may have heard recently? It's not hornets in your walls, but excitement that filming for Season 2 of "Yellowjackets" – Showtime's breakout series about high school girls who turn to cannibalism, and their adult selves living with that trauma, after their plane crashes in the wilderness – is expected to start this summer. The collective groan you could have also heard? That it will likely be November or December of 2022 before we actually see the show on our screens again.
What's the Hive to do? A full year before Shauna, Jackie, Misty, Natalie and the rest of the soccer team graced us with their particular brand of WTF, Amazon Prime released "The Wilds." The show created by Sarah Streicher and with showrunner Amy B. Harris has a surprisingly similar premise: teen girls must learn to survive when their plane crashes. But this plane crash-lands in the ocean, marooning a handful of girl survivors, few of whom knew each other before the accident, not in the about-to-be-freezing woods of Canada (or wherever "Yellowjackets" is supposed to be set) but on a desert island.
