(spoilers obviously)

I can understand the complaint - but we don't know if a) Lottie is actually alive and b) whether or not she is - we don't know if the others know about what seems to be a cult. I'm not saying you're wrong in theory...but Lottie's story here is going to be key in understanding why they were vague as shit here.

The thing about Lost - and I understand the comparisons - is that it so very clearly did not know how to land the fucking plane. Was it compelling? Yes! Did they know what they were doing after season 2? No! Every revelation and character in season 2 was dead/gone by the end of it - Mr. Ecko, the new hatch, etc. It was all for nothing - and that's when I knew it was going to be a rough fucking ending. And it was.

Yellowjackets certainly has flaws - what doesnt? - but I'll give it this: they didn't even get to the cannibalism. We ASSUME it's cannibalism, but we don't even really know THAT yet. That gives me hope it's actually got an arc with a finish line. Lindelof and Cuse kept saying everything was going to be scientifically explained in Lost and uhhhhh that was never said again.
