Yellowjackets Season 2 Episode 2

The much-anticipated season two premiere of the critically acclaimed drama Yellowjackets posted the biggest streaming and on-demand numbers for any season premiere on Showtime. Showtime also reports season two episode one was up 40% over the season one finale in cross-platform viewing.

Yellowjackets broke records as the most streamed Showtime debut ever thanks to Ashley (Lyle), Bart (Nickerson), Jonathan (Lisco), and our extraordinary ensemble cast who brought season two to even greater heights,” stated Chris McCarthy, President/CEO, Showtime/MTV Entertainment Studios & Paramount Media Networks. “By tapping into our proven strategy of promoting series across our full portfolio of brands at Paramount Media Networks, we successfully broadened the reach and brought new viewers into this incredible series that deftly combines psychological horror, dark comedy, and coming-of-age drama.”

Episode two, “Edible Complex,” premieres on Paramount+ on Friday, March 31, 2023 at 12am PT/3am ET and on Showtime on Sunday, April 2 at 9pm ET/PT.

“Edible Complex” Plot: The Yellowjackets barely made it through summer in the woods, but as winter arrives, their hunger and desperation turn into full-on psychosis; twenty-five years later, the survivors ask whether the darkness comes for them or if it comes from them.

The season two cast includes Emmy nominee Juliette Lewis as Natalie, Critics Choice Award winner Melanie Lynskey as Shauna, Emmy nominee Christina Ricci as Misty, and Tawny Cypress as Taissa. Sophie Nélisse is Teen Shauna, Jasmin Savoy Brown is Teen Taissa, Sophie Thatcher is Teen Natalie, Samantha Hanratty is Teen Misty, and Courtney Eaton is Teen Lottie.

The cast also includes Liv Hewson as Teen Van, Steven Krueger as Ben Scott, Warren Kole as Jeff, and Kevin Alves as Teen Travis. Newcomers Lauren Ambrose and Simone Kessell are season two regulars, with Elijah Wood handling a season-long guest-starring arc.

Yellowjackets Synopsis, Courtesy of Showtime:

Created by Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson (Narcos), Yellowjackets is the saga of a team of wildly talented high school girls soccer players who become the (un)lucky survivors of a plane crash deep in the remote northern wilderness. The series chronicles their descent from a complicated but thriving team to savage clans, while also tracking the lives they’ve attempted to piece back together nearly 25 years later, proving that the past is never really past and what began out in the wilderness is far from over.

In season two, two months have passed since Shauna gave Jackie the cold shoulder— to disastrous results. In the face of their deepening hunger and fear, the tension among our Yellowjackets has only grown worse. The harsh conditions of winter are intensifying by the day, and the psyches of our survivors are deteriorating just as fast. Threatened by the darkness of the wilderness — and the haunting memories of it in the present — our former state champs will be forced to make impossible decisions.

As they confront the horrible truth of what survival entails, the real nightmare for each of them will be to figure out who they are — and what they are willing to sacrifice in order to stay alive.
