Yellowjackets characters and their The Wilds counterparts (pt.1)
Natalie Scatorccio and Dot Campbell
Rebellious, deadpan and sarcastic, traumatized from their fathers, complicated relationships with drugs, had to grow up too fast and raise themselves, compassionate and caring, good survival instincts in the wild due to already being in survival mode in their troubled home environments.
Shauna Shipman and Leah Rilke
Obsessive (tend to idolize and obsess over a particular person, as Shauna does with Jackie and Leah does with Jeffrey), smart and observant, unhealthy/rocky relationships, feeling invisible, sweet with a darkness underneath the surface, need to be loved, (also both fucking people named Jeff?)
Misty Quigley and Nora Reid
Socially awkward, have a hard time fitting in, unhinged, highly intelligent and knowledgeable about a wide range of topics, manipulative, and they are both the reason their friends are stranded (Misty broke the black box and Nora helped set up the experiment).
Taissa Turner and Rachel Reid
Ambitious, determined (sometimes to a fault as this determination to succeed can hurt themselves and/or those around them as we see with Tai breaking Allie’s leg and driving herself mad with her political campaign and Rachel’s ED/almost drowning Leah for the sake of finding the black box), smart, headstrong and stubborn, reliable and loyal, hard working.
Lottie Matthews and Martha Blackburn
Spiritual and in touch with nature, both have visions and hallucinations, kind and good-natured, healing, both have a tendency to comfort and heal others (the parallels between the Lottie and Travis panic attack scene and the Martha and Rachel scene where Rachel is stuck in quicksand are so strong), both have a connection to a person tragically lost after the crash and are guided by dreams/visions of this person (Lottie with Laura Lee and Martha with Jeanette).

In my opinion The boys island on the wilds would've been better if the boys were basically a genderbend of the girls.
I mean that in like a way where all their stories are similar because a lot of the stuff girls went through and their stories happen to boys too.
And I think it would've been a better story if we got to see how men deal with those issues and how men are raised and toxic masculinity
Like we get to see how men are taught and shown to deal with stuff and how different their experiences are.
