Craig Wedren and Anna Waronker - Yellowjackets - No Return 2021
Yellowjackets is an American thriller drama television series which premiered on Showtime on November 14, 2021. The series follows two primary storylines: the first involves a group of teenagers who must survive in the wilderness after their plane crashes in 1996, while the second takes place 25 years later and focuses on their attempts to piece their lives back together after being rescued and returning to civilization. It stars a large ensemble cast led by Sophie Nélisse, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Sophie Thatcher, and Samantha Hanratty as the core teenage survivors, while Melanie Lynskey, Tawny Cypress, Juliette Lewis, and Christina Ricci portray their adult counterparts. The series has received significant praise for its cast's performances, mystery elements and exploration of the past and present timelines.
The music for the pilot was composed by Theodore Shapiro. The rest of the first season was scored by Craig Wedren and Anna Waronker, members of the rockbands Shudder to Think and That Dog, respectively. Wedren was invited to the series after the series was picked up and Shapiro was unable to return. The main theme song, "No Return", was written and performed by Wedren and Waronker, who said they "aimed to channel our off-kilter '90s roots into something that felt like 'then', but could only have been made now, just like the show".
Show creators Lyle and Nickerson were initially hesitant with the idea of featuring a theme song due to their growing rarity in the mainstream but were eventually convinced otherwise. Lakeshore Records made "No Return" available to stream and download on January 6, 2022. A soundtrack album was also released on Spotify. The fourth, seventh and ninth episodes of the second season featured a cover of "No Return" by Alanis Morissette, which was released as a single on April 14, 2023.
"No Return" received a total of 63,3% yes votes!
