Yellowjackets Season 3 Finale Shatters Records with 3 Million Views!

by

has officially broke a new series record with its Season 3 finale.

According to reports, the just-released third season finale of the popular Amazon Prime Video series has gathered over 3 million views in its first seven days on the platform, setting a new record for the show. This is a 19% rise compared to the viewership of the Season 2 finale, and a 54% increase when considering streaming-only viewership. These figures are derived from a mix of Nielsen audience statistics and Paramount Global’s internal data on Paramount+ streaming.

Debuted in 2021, this series swiftly became the dominant force in pop culture at the time. The show is structured around two interconnected casts, each depicting the same characters, first as teenagers and then as adults. In the past timeline of the show, the cast find themselves in a harrowing situation when a high school girls’ soccer team from New Jersey gets stranded in the Canadian wilderness after a tragic plane crash during a trip. As for the adult cast set in the present, more than two decades later, they continue to grapple with past events in ways that are just as shockingly brutal as their experiences in the forest.

Yellowjackets Has Been Acclaimed

As a dedicated cinephile, I can confidently say that the first season of “Yellowjackets” left me utterly impressed and captivated, earning it a flawless 100% “Fresh” rating on Rotten Tomatoes from critics. Though subsequent seasons didn’t quite hit that mark, they’ve still been greeted with generally favorable reviews from both critics and viewers, securing an impressive 84% “Fresh” rating.

Throughout its journey, the series has experienced some cast changes for various reasons, but it’s also grown in scope since its debut by welcoming new talents like Elijah Wood’s character, Walter Tattersall, to the mix.

As a movie reviewer, I was left reeling by one of the most unexpected moments in Season 3 of “Yellowjackets” – the heart-wrenching demise of Ambrose’s character, Vaness “Van” Palmer. The attack sequence that led to her untimely death was indeed perplexing. Initially, I was taken aback when I learned that the showrunners had decided to take Van’s life, as Ambrose herself had expressed her shock that cancer or other personal tragedies hadn’t claimed her character before. However, upon further reflection, I now understand that this tragic event marks the departure of one character while simultaneously introducing another. The brutal manner in which this change unfolds serves as a stark introduction to Melissa’s storyline, making sense of why they chose such a grim beginning for her character arc.

Yellowjackets is currently available for streaming on Prime Video.
