Yellowjackets just gets bigger and better every single week, and you need to be watching it.

🚨There are MASSIVE spoilers ahead for the week of Dec. 31 to Jan. 6, 2022🚨

1. First, on the Yellowstone Season 4 finale, Rip and Beth officially got married — after Beth literally kidnapped a priest — and it was chaotic and perfect for them.

2. And on Yellowstone, Jimmy decided to leave Yellowstone and officially work at the 6666 in Texas; meanwhile Jamie killed his father after Beth revealed she knew Garrett was behind the attack on the Duttons.

3. On Abbott Elementary, Janine tried to get the lights back on at school, and after a long day of trying to make things better, Gregory asked Janine to join him for lunch.

ABC

Y'all, Janine and Gregory better be this show's Pam and Jim because I need it.

4. Cobra Kai Season 4 dropped on Netflix this week. The new season picked up with Miyagi-Do and Eagle Fang teaming up to try and take down Cobra Kai, who has welcomed back the ruthless Terry Silver from Karate Kid Part III.

7. On Station Eleven, Mackenzie Davis delivered a career-defining performance in Episode 8, but in Episode 9 we learned that Jeevan was mauled by a wolf after retrieving Kirsten’s copy of Station Eleven, and when he recovers she's not in the cabin anymore.

HBO Max

So, Jeevan didn't willingly leave Kirsten, and I am 110% emotional over this show every single week. Also, Matilda Lawler as Young Kirsten deserves every award.

8. Black-ish kicked off its final season with Bow and Dre meeting Michelle Obama at a charity event, and they ended up having dinner with her.

ABC

9. On Yellowjackets, Van survived the wolf attack (thank god), and Laura Lee made the (terrible) decision to try to fly the abandoned plane to go find help, and it ended with her literally exploding in the air.
