Oscar and Emmy winner Kevin Costner is the marquee attraction of the ensemble cast in this drama series, starring as the patriarch of a powerful, complicated family of ranchers. A sixth-generation homesteader and devoted father, John Dutton controls the largest contiguous ranch in the United States. He operates in a corrupt world where politicians are compromised by influential oil and lumber corporations and land grabs make developers billions. Amid shifting alliances, unsolved murders, open wounds, and hard-earned respect, Dutton's property is in constant conflict with those it borders -- an expanding town, an Indian reservation, and America's first national park.

Critics Consensus

Galloping into the arena of politics with a decidedly nonpartisan bent, Yellowstone enters uncertain territory but remains firmly in the saddle, with Kevin Costner's steadfast presence remaining an invaluable asset.

Ed Power

Daily Telegraph (UK)

The simple truth is that it’s a lusty, larger-than-life soap opera that harks back to the big-haired prime of Dallas and Dynasty, with a hint of Cormac McCarthy’s cowboy stoicism.

Rated: 3/5

Kristen Baldwin

Entertainment Weekly

The series, which proved linear television could still produce a gargantuan hit, ended as it began, celebrating an idealized America where a man (always a man) can live life the way his God intended — independent and free from the tyranny of the Other.

Rated: B+

Lauren Michele Jackson

The New Yorker

The showrunner Taylor Sheridan has been given wide latitude to iterate on the world of the Dutton ranching family, but he’s best when honoring his Western’s melodramatic core.

Oregonian

If the Season 5 premiere of Yellowstone doesn’t exactly soar, it does serve up Dallas-style drama, juicy performances (particularly by Reilly) and gorgeous scenery.

AARP Movies for Grownups

Self-reliance and refusal to capitulate are deeply imbued in the American grain, and never more intensely than right now. Yellowstone’s new season captures that feeling -- that’s why it’s riding higher than ever.

No fans will be disappointed by this premiere as Taylor Sheridan’s family drama continues to deserve to be one of the most popular series on television.

Given the fact that the main character’s actor basically quit on this show, I’d say they did about as well as they could’ve with this ending.

Ranch still going strong with all the thrills & spills. No successful dinner, still ... 😜 Entertaining, very high quality production and still a benchmark, imo. Well written and produced, excellent stuff

Terrible final season. With Kevin Costner leaving halfway through the season (wtf!?), the writers apparently didn‘t have interesting storylines left and focussed on the Beth-Jamie conflict, which has always been the most shallow part of Yellowstone.
