"Yellowjackets" has become a rare hit in the prestige television world. This hit series broke the common mold of taking beautiful teenage girls into their own hands and giving them a '90s edge. Some succeed, some fail, and some reunite in a parallel timeline a quarter century later, no doubt coming from someone who lives on Hulu, Netflix, and HBO Max and spent half an hour trying to figure it out.

Now, let me explain briefly: you need a Showtime pay subscription, either a network TV subscription or a stand-alone Showtime streaming subscription. However! Showtime offers a 30-day free trial, which is enough time to watch the entire season of Yellowjackets (the last episode of the first season will be released in mid-January). In the meantime, you may want to catch up on Showtime's other hits, including "Ziwe," "Dexter," "New Blood," "Billions," and older favorites: "Ziwe," "Dexter: New Blood," "Billions," and "The Affair The Affair.

If you have a network TV subscription, it's even easier. Simply download the Showtime Anytime app on your favorite device - TV, tablet, or cell phone - and log in with your TV credentials; if you want a free 30-day trial, do not use the Showtime Anytime app. Because Yellowjackets is the anecdote that will blow away your January blues. I call it.

Say it with me: no book club? (Or, say it with me when you finish reading the first nine stories. I'll do my best.)
