what a fucking boring show, tried it when it first aired but pilot was too boring, gave it another go recently given such praise and watched 5 ep waiting for something to happen. many good actors, taylor sheridan directing, beautiful scenery, but script is just boring. even the directing is off sometimes. feels very much like a network show trying to be more but cant get to that level.
No idea why so many people complain about "nothing is happening"?? I saw some IMDB reviews that said that too.
If anything thats one of its problems, that whatever they do something "exciting" has to happen. E.g; someone drives a car, by pure chance he drives by a meth lab that just happens to explode, so in an instant there's people to shoot, girl to save, a whole event of things is triggered by some random insert. That shit happens all the time and it always feels very artificial (and very 80's, where writing wasn't as important as it is today).
I think the one thing that the show does good is some of the very harsh and depressing dialogue and/or realizations, it's also usually well acted. I feel sorry for some of the actors who seems to really outdo themselves, the writing RARELY do them justice. The kid is awful though, yet he has a lot of screen time, same with the wife, so fucking dull and uninteresting in every way.
The show only repeats a rare few themes and some events/ideas are so lazy and similar that you start to wonder if they're fucking trolling.
I've watched 5 episodes and nah, for each episode it has gotten worse i think. Focus on totally uninteresting things (the branding of the criminal cowboys for example, they seem to think that's something SUPER interesting when its not.)
The last episode of 1883 was great it was the best episode so far. I'm loving this show. I think it's better than the original Yellowstone. It's basically red dead redemption 2 the tv show
1883 It's a very good surprise, 3 eps in, and it's great.
Nothing to do with the soap yellowstone. Besides same name connections, it's all much better in 1883
Just finished 1883, excellent first half or so, then it got weaker and put way too much focus on the daughter (imo). All in all a solid show, with high production values and a couple of notable performances.
Not interested whatsoever in Yellowstone though, so my journey with the Duttons might end here

The cast keeps getting better and better in the Yellowstone universe. Paramount+ announced today that Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford will star in 1932 (working title), the next installment of the Dutton origin story.
The streamer offered no additional information on who Mirren and Ford will play in the latest Taylor Sheridan joint, other than saying “the next story will introduce a new generation of the Dutton family and explore the early twentieth century when pandemics, historic drought, the end of Prohibition, and the Great Depression all plague the mountain west, and the Duttons who call it home.” It will bow in December and is produced by MTV Entertainment Studios, 101 Studios and Bosque Ranch Productions.
The latest Yellowstone spinoff comes on the heels of 1883, the one-off prequel that starred Tim McGraw and Faith Hill as James and Margaret Dutton. The drama that also starred Sam Elliott, LaMonica Garrett and Isabel May became the most-watched title ever on Paramount+ globally.
Yellowstone is actually pretty damn good, it just needs a bit of time. I stopped watching it after a few episodes 2 years ago, then I finished all 4 seasons wihin a week this summer.
Agree that 1883 is perhaps better, although it too had its shortcomings here and there.
So, 1923 is about a month away. The trailer should drop soon, then.
