    Most recently, Yellowjackets and White Lotus. I watched the first 2 seasons of Yellowjackets because the premise was interesting, and I wanted to see what happened (how the rescue happened) but it turned into a hate watch for me by the end of the second season. It all felt pointless and super depressing with no moments of hope or levity at all. The introduction of random supernatural elements and magic felt like they were drifting into Lost territory, and I couldn’t force myself to watch the third season after that.

    White Lotus I tried rewatching because everyone seems to love it but I could never get past the first episode in the first season, everyone was so unlikeable and awful or totally ridiculous that I couldn’t stomach spending more time with them.

        Yeah I really liked the first season but sort of lost interest… honestly I felt like the whole modern-day arc was a waste of time. I thought they had plenty to work with with a lord of the flies type story just set in the wilderness.

      Yellowjackets is garbage. It’s one of those shows that mistakes debasement and malignancy for character development.

      I’m still watching yellowjackets but yeah, pretty quickly they just kill off any characters worth rooting for. It’s a hard watch.
