This show has really begun to hit its stride these last few episodes. It`s beginning to gain traction, and viewership I hear has been impressively increasing each week as well. And it`s already renewed for a season 2
Showtime know they got one with Yellowjackets. If everything is planned out, and they`re not just winging it like Lost did, then we should be in for a treat.
I read the show is not based on a true story, but it loosely follows the real story of the Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 from 1972. And from the summary`s I heard about that. They may as well just call this show a true (crazy) story. There’s a movie called Alive that was made in 1993 that its based on to.
