Been hearing about the series for a while. Not one to watch anything that I miss the start, but just happened to have it on the channel when it started. Watched a couple episodes back to back. Costner is good! Great scenery and good story’s. Hot American Indian women don’t hurt neither! A lot of Indian looking actors. I actually thought about Wabi and his cows during the show. I’m about 1/4 American Indian. I think an Indian gal might make a good wife as long as she was not a Casino addict.
Pass........too bad flave is on hiatus
It's a soap opera. Couldn't get past the first few episodes.
I have a problem with any program in which they promote a bunch of criminals and serial murderers as the protagonist.
It’s OK, like 1923 better
hey it is clean entertainment. nothing else. a dream world for most of us fire types. no harm done. no [bleep] in the series so thumbs up from me

Agree, left me looking for more episodes.
Wait for the end. Then get back to us...
Living in Montana, I couldn't get the whole way through the first episode . such a crock of s h i t.
We don’t watch much tv. But what floors me is all the “Yellowstone” and Dutton ranch branded stuff I see everywhere. Do a fair amount of traveling for work. To date see Yellowstone hats everywhere. In Buffalo New York saw a dodge dually with the stickers driven by a middle aged guy who looked to be an accountant. Entertainment is one thing but no way I’m buying g a coat or hat branded on it. Lol

That's about where I mailed it in too. Fly fishing from horseback while splashing in a crick. Costner stomping around in a puffy ski jacket when everybody else is wearing short sleeve shirts just added to the sillyness. I actually wanted to like it, but couldn't.

Well, there is that.

Never heard of 1923. I usually don’t watch much tv, but this past year been viewing more. I still do construction for work and my body is not like it used to be. When I was in my 20s I often worked 7 days a week and would have lights set up to work after dark. No more.

You watched a TV series that's been out for several years now??

That is freakin' remarkable!! Well done.
1883 is damn good.

Yellowstone gets a little hockey sometimes but I like it.

The Indian gal who is married to the son isn’t. She’s half Chinese have gringo. The couldn’t find an Indian actress got enough to play the part.

I forced myself to finish the first episode. I even tried to watch the second episode but punched out for good about the halfway mark.
seems like a remake of Dallas in a different region
Loved the show. Would watch again

Yup. She doesn’t have a drop of Indian blood in her, the genes just aligned enough to make her kinda look like she could be Native American. The real ones are 250+ by the time they’re her age and operating on two teeth.

It's on network TV now, CBS.

I had a problem with the wagon trains 14 years after the Transcontinental Railroad was completed.
I liked Yellowstone just because, if for nothing else, it didn’t have any liberal crap in it, IIRC, and it was so politically incorrect. That is, I think, why, for years, it was the most popular syndicated show on the tube in the U.S.

There are flaws in it, but that’s one of the reasons I liked it.
Alan c: What kept me watching was the often seen views of Montana which were beautifully filmed and also being anxious to see what profanely prefaced act of violence would be next.
Not to much reality in this series but I watched it anyway.
I have a jacket with the ranches big "Y" logo on it and the words "Take'em to the train station" on it - you would be surprised how often strangers comment positively on it.
Seems a lot of people liked the series - I think it is going to resume this year?
I like the daughter even though I wish she would NOT cuss so often.

It is kind of like a soap opera, I thought the first 2-3 seasons were okay but then it jumped the shark.

Jumping the shark is cool. Fonzie proved that!
I watched 1 single episode a year or so back. I got to wondering who shot JR?
I thought it was hilarious when Costner and his son jumped over a gate and ran a hundred yards to a cow that was down trying to have a calf. (Why they didn’t open the gate and drive over to the cow is a mystery) Then they messed around with the cow, which conveniently stayed on the ground while they did so, and pulled the calf. As soon as they got the calf out, it was magically transformed into a dry calf that looked a couple months old that immediately ran off. lol
I think I have seen two or three episodes. I was like "shoot that helicopter down". I then realized it would have a very short series.

What’s the downside to that?
It's really good.


Basically it's a documentary.

Educational to boot!

My take as well......

Dallas in the mountains!
Yup
Well it's pretty good if you like blood and profanity laced scenes the whole time. The "indian girl" married to the son was just about the only character that wasn't too compromised. I watched most of the episodes because my wife liked it but I wouldn't recomend it to anyone as good entertainment.
I think that many have missed the deep psycho/social message embodied in this seminal portrayal of American culture and history.

[bleep]'n barrel racers.

I enjoyed it.
Most of you, need to lighten up, Francis !

It's entertainment, not real life.

Not meant to depict yours, Sam's, Jim's, Wabi's, or anybody elses farm life/s.

No different to John Wick, James Bond, The mechanic, et al !

FFS.
I found that watching the characters is much more entertaining than trying to watch the series as a whole. If John turned the ranch over to Beth and Rip, the two of them would have the entire mess straightened out and all the bodies live or dead buried in two weeks.
