Yellowjackets season 2 episode 6: Why the long wait?
So why are we stuck waiting until early May to see the next episode (titled “Qui”) around? Let’s just say that there is a relatively simple reason for it, at least based on some of our estimations at the moment.

For those of you who are not currently aware, filming for season 2 of the show did not actually wrap up until February. What that means is that there was actually a pretty short turnaround between when production wrapped and when the show came on the air. Given that it does take time for episodes to be put together in post-production, this extra week between episodes could allow the post-production team the time necessary in order to ensure that everything is perfect.
Of course…
It also probably helps Showtime to have people subscribed for a little bit longer, since they could check out other shows during the hiatus. We don’t want to act like this one-week break in the action is altogether unusual, either, given that we have seen over the years other programs do something similar in the middle of the season.
Sure, a small break may be frustrating, but remember this — we’ve certainly seen worse breaks right in the middle of a season. This just gives some people a chance to catch up if they are a week or two behind.
Now that we’ve said all of this, did the Yellowjackets producers really have to end this past episode on that Shauna cliffhanger? Now, that we have a lot of questions as to if her baby is going to be okay.
