Yellowstone (2018)
Yellowstone
„Yellowstone“ folgt der einflussreichen Familie Dutton, die eine der größten Ranches in den USA besitzt und ständig um deren Erhalt kämpfen muss. Die Serie zeigt, wie sie sich gegen politische Interessen, Landentwickler und rivalisierende Gruppen behaupten. Gleichzeitig beleuchtet sie die komplexen Beziehungen innerhalb der Familie und die moralischen Grenzen, die sie zu überschreiten bereit sind. Insgesamt verbindet die Serie moderne Western‑Atmosphäre mit Machtkämpfen, Loyalität und Konflikten um Land und Identität.

Yellowstone started off really well. Production values are great. Certainly, it is visually stunning show. Acting across the board is top notch. Costner and Reilly shine. Some characters, like Kayce and Monica, contradict themselves throughout the show, though; They are there just to create drama, and indeed at the end, just for exposition.
The show becomes progressively more woke as it goes on. It's subtle. Little jabs here and there. The last season goes off the rails, for hopefully obvious reasons without giving out any spoilers, with the ending ultimately having to use a severe tap dance of mental gymnastics to convince the viewer that this outcome was the best possible given the circumstances. It was really frustrating to watch. The show had a great cast of characters. However, forcing the plot, in the way it did, tarnished what would have otherwise been a stellar legacy. It's a crying shame. Sadly, similar scenarios are to be found in the spin off series.
I don't trust Taylor Sheridan as a writer. He seems to think that his audience doesn't have a long term memory. This situation is visible in character 'development' where a character in one season, has a particularly strong stance on an issue, then in a later season, holds the exact opposite stance, while completely avoiding addressing the previous stance as if it never happened. Mr. Sheridan thinks you are dumb.
