Have you ever wondered what Lord of the Flies might have been like if it were about girls instead of boys? Find out in Yellowjackets episode 1. Showtime’s new survival thriller/psychological horror series is one of the best new shows of the year, and you don’t want to miss out on the premiere tonight.

The Yellowjackets soccer team is the pride and joy of their New Jersey high school, so everyone is thrilled when they’re chosen to go to nationals in Seattle. But the team never makes it there as their plane crashes in the northern wilderness, stranding them for 19 months.

Yellowjackets starts in 1996 when the main cast were still teenagers hoping for the best. By the end of the episode, the plane is crashing, and we’ve also met their adult versions in present-day 2021. Whatever happened in the woods has continued to haunt them all ever since, and they’ll do whatever it takes to keep their secrets safe.

Melanie Lynskey, Tawny Cypress, Ella Purnell, Sophie Nélisse, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Sophie Thatcher, Sammi Hanratty, Steven Krueger, Warren Kole, Christina Ricci and Juliette Lewis star.
