Father, brother I've sworn, I've sworn, To guard this rest you've earned. Paint Slaver's Bay in crimson rains, To bring Ethan back to me. Snow grabbed me from my mother's grasp, To claim me as his prize.
Ethan freed me from Ramsay's clasp, The rival lords locked eyes, the rival lords locked eyes. Fight on, fight on, Ethan the Brave, Old Gods bare steel with you.
Our lord, my twin, a hero's grave. So iron grows anew, Still iron grows anew His final words, faced with the sword, Chilled Ramsay to the bone. You will not have her, I am Lord, And I protect my own! His final words, faced with the sword, Cut short the bastards' breath, Take me as hostage oh my lord! He saved us all from death.
From ice, from ice, we Forresters born, To ice we all return, Father, brother we mourn, we mourn, These family trees we've burned. When Ramsay claimed me for his ward, Ethan spurred the tyrant, My brother's clam defied our lord, Ethan strong and silent. Watch on, watch on, Ethan the Wise, Old Gods be one with you.
Our Lord, my kin and an old soul dies. So iron grows anew, Still iron grows anew. May kings and queens melt down their crowns. A pyre on Aegon's hill. In floods of gold, I pray they drown, For all the blood they spilled. Mance, sound the horn of winters past. Call starving giants forth. Urge cannibals to break their fast, On Wardens of the North. Eastern mages empty the veins, Of beasts across the sea.
Gdy Ramsay??? The fantasy drama had fans glued to their screens each week to see what happened next in Westeros, and many experts predicted that we might never see another show quite like it. But "Yellowjackets," a suspenseful new drama from Showtime, is changing the game in many of the ways that "Game of Thrones" did. While the two series have little in common thematically or in terms of plot, viewer experience and fandom reaction has been surprisingly similar.
The show juggles multiple timelines, jumping forward to show just how the survivors are grappling with the aftermath of their month ordeal 25 years later. Like "Game of Thrones," however, each episode of "Yellowjackets" ratchets up the tension and mystery, leaving viewers wondering just how, exactly, the girls ended up turning to cannibalism in order to survive a shocking twist that's immediately revealed in the show's premiere.
The suspense-driven storyline makes it imperative to watch new episodes as soon as they premiere, lest you get spoiled on Twitter. The show has also inspired a very active subreddit , where hardcore "Yellowjackets" fans pore over seemingly innocuous details like entries in a character's diary, or a T-shirt worn by a different character and develop theories about the show's central mysteries.
Aside from the fact that "Yellowjackets" is very much the return of appointment TV, it's also got an amazingly talented cast. But their younger counterparts — including Sophie Thatcher, who is very much making a case for the resurgence of the shag haircut, and Jasmin Savoy Brown, perfectly capturing her character Taissa's resilience — also hold their own. It's fascinating watching a group of teen girls struggle to survive the wilderness, and the foreshadowing at the beginning of the series only increases the dread viewers feel as winter looms and the Yellowjackets' supply of food dwindles.
And in the present day, the surviving members' rush to uncover a mysterious blackmailer who may or may not have murdered one of the people stranded with them adds even more suspense to the present-day narrative. Coupled with the typical teenage drama that the Yellowjackets find themselves in even while trying to fend off wolves and avoid starving to death, the show occasionally has moments that would feel more at home in "My So-Called Life" than "Lost.
Ultimately, though, "Yellowjackets" defies easy comparisons — it's simply appointment TV at its finest. With painfully relatable characters, an enthralling mystery, and a gruesome survival tale all wrapped into one excellent series, it's not surprising that the show has garnered a vocal niche of fans online and is already renewed for a second season.
