How To Watch 1883 Online - Is It Streaming On Paramount+ Or Peacock?
BYRUTH COOLIDGEPUBLISHED DEC 15, 2021


1883 is a prequel series to the hit show Yellowstone, currently in its fourth season. Streaming options for Yellowstone and 1883 differ, however.


Here's how to watch Paramount's new Yellowstone prequel series, 1883, with tips for navigating Paramount+ and Peacock. Given the significant popularity of Yellowstone over its three seasons so far and its ongoing fourth, it's no surprise that Paramount has decided to offer dedicated viewers a new angle on the story with 1883. The tricky part, however, will be figuring out where to stream all of this interrelated content.

Yellowstone's central figures are the members of the Dutton family, a dynasty that has owned and operated the largest ranch in the United States for generations. As a prequel series to the hit show, 1883 tells the Duttons' origin story, following their journey West to what will eventually become Yellowstone and their family ranch. Just as Yellowstone explores the tensions between the various people and interest groups who want to control the land—in classic Western genre fashion—1883 will likely see these same conflicts playing out in a different way during an earlier time period.

Yellowstone seasons 1-3 are available for streaming on Peacock, while season 4 can only be watched live or online through Paramount Network (not to be confused with Paramount+). 1883, on the other hand, has a different streaming plan. Here's a guide on how to watch 1883 when it premiers on December 19th.

How To Watch 1883 Online In US

Unlike Yellowstone, which is partially streaming on Peacock and Paramount Network, 1883 is available exclusively on Paramount+. This streaming platform is separate from the cable channel Paramount Network, meaning the two do not share access or content. US audiences that have been watching Yellowstone season 4 on Paramount Network will need a separate Paramount+ subscription to watch 1883.

How To Watch 1883 Online In UK & Canada

Paramount+ is now available in Canada with limited offerings, which don't include 1883, and the streaming service has yet to roll out at all in the UK. Because of this, the options for watching 1883 in the UK and Canada are currently entirely limited - though this could hopefully change in the coming months if Paramount+ offers its streaming service to a wider audience.

Will 1883 Release On Peacock?

Though Peacock currently has Yellowstone seasons 1-3, the spinoff show 1883 is a Paramount+ exclusive, meaning it probably won't come to Peacock. It is possible that Yellowstone season 4 will move to Peacock when it's finished airing live, however, since Peacock and Paramount have a licensing deal for the show that predates the latter creating its own streaming platform. But for 1883, it seems the only way to watch online truly is Paramount+.

“1883” is more than just the Oregon Trail

Vast barren plains, tumultuous rivers, deadly bandits. These are just a few of the many obstacles faced on the Oregon trail. No, I am not talking about the hit game that so many of us played in our childhood; facing constant broken axles, rotten food, and disease. What I am referring to is the trail that is being faced on the CBS and MTV Entertainment hit television show “1883”. Airing on the Paramount Network in early December of 2021, this show has quickly risen to popularity among its viewers.





“1883” is the prequel to “Yellowstone”, a western drama taking place in the picturesque Montana. “Yellowstone” is full of cowboys, grit, and plenty of drama. Taylor Sheridan and John Linsdon have created a following with their loveable characters and quick witty lines. When Sheridan came up with the idea of the prequel, it was written, perfected, and introduced to the world. Very quickly, “Yellowstone” fans flocked to the television on Saturday nights to watch this new period drama.





The show “1883” would not be what it is without its all star cast; the main characters James and Margeret Dutton are played by none other than country-music star Tim McGraw and his real-life wife Faith Hill. If their chemistry wasn’t enough to draw in the crowd, cowboy legend Sam Elliot has a regular role as Shea Brennan, the head of the wagon train. The audience also observes walk-on roles by writer Taylor Sheridan, Billy Bob Thorton and Tom Hanks.





“1883” would not be nearly as captivating without the narrator of the story, the up and coming actress Isabelle May portraying Elsa Dutton. May’s portrayal of Elsa is nothing short of amazing. In my opinion this part should win her some prestigious awards. Elsa defies everything a woman is supposed to be in the late 1800s. She rides like a cowboy, acts like a cowboy and she even wears pants like a cowboy. She loves like she wants, lives like she wants, and her mouth gets her into trouble on more than one occasion. Her strong spirit is admirable, and her true grit is an inspiration. Elsa narrates the show, painting an image of her world so eloquently with her words.

The Dutton family faces many challenges along the trail. First departing from Texas, they must fight the elements, time itself, and those standing in their way to reach Montana. The Great Plains themselves are challenging and the obstacles the family faces are deadly. Supporting characters are lost in every show; victims to the ferociousness of the trail. Even a member of the Dutton family is put into a life or death situation – on more than one occasion.

The last episode of the season aired on February 27, but fear not. The entire season is still available on the Paramount Network and another season has just been announced. If that is not enough, Sheridan also announced another prequel to “Yellowstone”. A sequel to “1883” is also in the works titled “1923”. This new journey will follow the next generation of the Dutton family. If it is anything like “1883” or “Yellowstone” it is certain to have a cult following of its own.

1883: Why The Duttons Have No Clear Route Or Plan

1883: Why The Duttons Have No Clear Route Or Plan



1883: Why The Duttons Have No Clear Route Or Plan
BYPETER MUTUCPUBLISHED JAN 25, 2022


1883 pits American and European pioneers against the dangers of the 19th century frontier. Here's why the pioneers don't seem to have a clear plan.


Warning: the following contains SPOILERS for 1883.

1883's Dutton family got out of Tennessee in order to seek out greener pastures in a land which they know to be highly dangerous – despite this, they seem to have no clear route or plan in mind. This is important because 1883 is a show that primarily tackles the harsh realities and dangers faced by settlers who braved the frontier during the late 19th century. Although the Yellowstone spinoff series is entirely fictional, 1883's characters and story are based on real-life during the 1800s. Consequently, many fans of the show have wondered whether or not the Duttons' lack of a plan is realistic in terms of the era in question.

Alongside James Dutton (Tim McGraw) and his family, his fellow pioneers Shea Brennan (Sam Elliot) and Thomas (LaMonica Garrett) also seem to know very little about their destination. This is despite the fact that Shea and Thomas have agreed to lead a group of highly inexperienced German and Romani settlers, who, like the Duttons, are searching for greener pastures in the frontier. Although James, Sam, and Thomas are all war veterans who are practically walking encyclopedias when it comes to outdoor survival in the Wild West, none of them have a definite path or route in mind for reaching Montana. This is further highlighted by the 1883 cast's tragic fate in 1883 season 1, episode 4 “The Crossing,” in which Shea and James engage in a debate regarding the best route for crossing the river, which, as some fans argue, could have been settled before they even set out to travel.

RELATED:How To Watch 1883 Online - Is It Streaming On Paramount+ Or Peacock?

1883's dedication to historical accuracy, which serves as the show's main strength, is to blame for the cast's lack of planning for a clear and definite route. This was simply impossible to do in the late 19th century. The reality is that the pioneers who were involved in the Westward Expansion of America in the 1800s had very little information to work with. This is why it was safer to travel in large groups. Apart from the prevalence of dangers like bandit attacks, rattlesnake bites, and diseases like smallpox and cholera, accurate maps of the area between Texas and Montana were also very rare. This is because, at the time, the said land area was primarily owned, governed, and patrolled by Native American tribes like the fearsome Comanche, who were understandably skeptical of white colonists who sought to map out and explore their territories. In contrast, modern techniques, maps, and other instruments can accurately predict the shifting or swelling of any major river today. In 1883, the few maps that were available could prove to be inaccurate by the time they reach certain crucial destinations.




This is why it was more practical to plan for the unexpected, travel in large groups, and do it with as little unnecessary baggage as possible – as Shea keeps reminding the German families that make up most of the caravan. Although there are small and unavoidable historical errors in 1883, the group's lack of planning isn't one of them. Furthermore, while the group doesn't have a clearly defined route, what they do have are leaders who are highly experienced outdoor survivalists, information from those who took the Oregon Trail and other nearby established routes, and secondhand information from fellow travelers.

1883 seeks to accurately depict the real lives of pioneers in the late 19th century. At first glance, the lack of planning on the part of the pioneers seems to contradict this goal. However, it's actually an authentic depiction of the life-threatening challenges faced by pioneers at each step.

‘1883‘ is a gritty Western drama series that serves as a prequel to ‘Yellowstone.’ While fans of the latter show are aware of the Dutton family’s dynasty that is the Yellowstone Ranch, its origin story is sketched out in the prequel. In ‘1883,’ the first generation Dutton rancher, James Dillard Dutton, and his family comprising wife, Margaret, and children, Elsa and John, travel across the Great Plains in search of a land to call their own. The Duttons’ road North is filled with dangers and difficulties. If you are wondering which route the Duttons take and how it leads to their ultimate destination, the place that would later become the Yellowstone Ranch, here’s everything you need to know!

Duttons’ Route, Mapped

In the first episode of ‘1883,’ James Dillard Dutton arrives in Fort Worth, Texas. His family later joins him in the town, where they have a harrowing experience that will be the first of many in the days to come. James wishes to move his family away from Texas’s impoverished and outlaw streets. Therefore, he joins Shea Brennan, a Pinkerton Agent and former Civil War veteran leading a group of immigrants across the Great Plains along the Oregon Trail. We later learn that the Duttons are originally from Tennessee.




The Duttons set out from Fort Worth and set up their first camp with Shea’s caravan on the banks of Trinity River In Texas. Over the next few episodes, the group slowly moves North along the river basin across Texas. They later cross the river in the fourth episode, and the caravan suffers numerous casualties in the process. The Duttons continue their journey from the Eastern side of Texas until they arrive at Doan’s Crossing in the sixth episode. Doan’s Crossing is a small settlement on the Texas-Oklahoma boundary situated on the banks of the Red River.

The Duttons and their companions cross the Red River and the Texas boundary. In the seventh episode, they pass through a Native American territory belonging to the Comanches. This patch of land lies between Colorado and Texas and is a part of Oklahoma in the present day. The group survives a storm and a run-in with the bandits as they pass through Colorado, with Shea suggesting to the immigrants that they settle in Denver, Colorado. However, James decides to lead the group all the way to Oregon. By the ninth episode, the caravan and the Duttons are close to crossing Colorado and reaching Wyoming.

They face the Lakota people, a Native American tribe who historically have a presence in the state. The group is heading towards Fort Caspar, a military outpost in Wyoming which further reiterates that the group has reached (or is near) Wyoming and is in the final stages of their journey. Montana lies to the North of Wyoming, but the group’s final destination remains Oregon. However, with Elsa’s recent injury, it seems like the Duttons’ plan will change. Elsa is nearing a certain death, and James resolves to find land the family can bury Elsa on. He further promises to make the land the family’s new home. Thus, all signs point to Elsa’s death leading the Duttons to settle in Montana. Although the Duttons set out to follow the Oregon Trail, they end up taking a few detours that lead them on a unique route.

Is 1883's James Dutton Grandfather or Great Grandfather of John Dutton?

Is 1883’s James Dutton Grandfather or Great Grandfather of John Dutton? An Analysis.
Pratik Handore

‘1883‘ is the story of the trials and tribulations-filled adventure of the Dutton family members who leave behind the impoverished streets of Texas for a better life elsewhere during the 19th century. As they journey across the Great Plains and head to Montana, we uncover the origins of the Yellowstone Ranch.


In the present, the ranch is owned and operated by Kevin Costner’s John Dutton, as seen in the events of ‘Yellowstone.’ With the two shows set in the same fictional universe, viewers must be curious to learn about the exact relationship between John and his ancestor James Dutton. In that case, here’s what we know about how the two are related to one another. SPOILERS AHEAD!
Who is James Dutton to John Dutton? How Are They Related?

Fans meet actor Tim McGraw’s first-generation Dutton rancher, James Dillard, in the fourth season premiere of Yellowstone’ through a flashback sequence set in 1893. A decade before that sequence, James Dutton sets out with his family and eventually settles down in Montana. Prior to the prequel series, not much was known about the ancestors of the Duttons. John Dutton’s father appears only once in ‘Yellowstone’ in a flashback of the season 2 finale. In that episode, actor Dabney Coleman plays John’s father and is credited as John Dutton Sr.




On the other hand, ‘1883’ features a character named John Dutton Sr., with actor Audie Rick playing the part. The character is the son of James and Margaret Dutton and appears to be roughly eight years old. The same character appears in flashbacks in episodes of ‘Yellowstone’ season 4 with Jack Michael Doke playing the teenage version. If this character is the same as John Dutton’s father, it would mean he is the father of Kevin Costner’s character.

In ‘Yellowstone,’ it is also stated that John’s father passed away several years after his wife, Evelyn Dutton, died in the late 90s. Therefore, assuming John’s father perished around the turn of the century, it would mean that John Dutton Sr lived for nearly 120 years. Although that is possible, the math certainly doesn’t add up when you consider that John is himself around sixty years old in the present. It would mean he was conceived when his father was possibly in his seventies. For those reasons, we believe that John Dutton Sr in ‘1883’ is John’s grandfather and not father. From this point onwards, we shall refer to Coleman’s character as John Dutton Jr and Costner’s character as John for the sake of clarity.




In the first season of ‘Yellowstone,’ John states that the Dutton family is in its sixth generation as ranchers. John has four children and one grandson, Tate Dutton, which means that we can identify John, his son, Kayce, and his grandson as fourth through sixth generations. James Dillard Dutton is the first-generation rancher in the family. Therefore, his son John Dutton Sr would fall into the second generation. Thus, Coleman’s John Dutton Jr would help fill the gap if he were John Dutton Sr’s son and John’s grandfather.

By that logic, James Dillard Dutton is the great-grandfather of John. Tim McGraw, who plays James, has stated that his character’s wife is the great-grandmother of Costner’s character. Thus, McGraw’s claims further corroborate our deduction that James Dutton is the great-grandfather of John.

Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren shine in a brilliant new TV western

1923
★★★★
Of the many genres of Hollywood storytelling, the western is perhaps the most beloved in American culture, but also perhaps the most easily misunderstood. Indeed, it’s not immediately certain that Taylor Sheridan’s new series 1923 is entirely a western in the accepted sense.

Spun off the Yellowstone franchise, it stars Harrison Ford as Jacob Dutton, the Dutton family patriarch and owner of the family’s Montana ranch, Yellowstone, and Helen Mirren, as his wife, Cara Dutton. It’s almost a soap, but you pause before you say it, lest you offend against the calibre of its stars.

In a sense, 1923 also serves as a bridge connecting the modern world of Yellowstone, and the franchise’s already released origin story, 1883. 1923, just as the title suggests, is set in the early 20th century, when the old western world and the modern world, still in its infancy, are beginning to collide.

Most striking to the Australian viewer might not be that 1923 is itself the latest chapter of an expanding franchise, but that there is even a franchise at all. In America the Paramount Network, which served as its launchpad, is the off-piste analog cousin of the studio’s digital platform, Paramount+. Consequently, it does not get the media love that, say, shows like The White Lotus, The Bear or Andor get.

In the Yellowstone world, it never rains, but it pours sequels. It might be the NCIS of the wild west. The original series, Yellowstone, which premiered in 2018, series stars Kevin Costner as John Dutton III. 1883, the first of several spin-off stories, stars Tim McGraw as James Dutton. At this rate, can Yellowstone: Las Vegas and Yellowstone: Miami be far off?

1923 is a sprawling saga of land, power and ambition. But fused with the near-modern world and an emphasis on interpersonal relationships, it is less a western in the classic sense, and owes more perhaps to the western-style television family melodramas of the 1960s such as Bonanza and The Big Valley than it does, perhaps, to more rigid genre series like Gunsmoke or Maverick.

In Mirren’s Cara Dutton we find an easy spin on The Big Valley’s Victoria Barkley, a woman whose substance, style and inner strength is not diminished, either by the harsh landscape which seems to crush everyone else fool enough to try and tame it, or the men in her orbit who think it is theirs to rule.

Harrison Ford’s Jacob Dutton is a more by-the-book cowboy grappling with unrest on the land: grazing land lost to locusts, angry ranchers wanting to carve up the remains and the looming shadow of a range war. He seems like an inscrutable and cranky man, but Ford lends him gravitas and complexity.

Woven around that are other story threads: a strict Catholic boarding school on the frontier in which Teonna Rainwater (Aminah Nieves) endures horrific abuse, that of and Jacob’s nephew Spencer Dutton (Brandon Sklenar), who is in Africa. Still to come: the arrival of Donald Whitfield (Timothy Dalton), a TV arch-villain as surely as J.R. Ewing once wore a Stetson hat.

1923 is brilliant. Taylor Sheridan’s writing is so taut it feels like the tension could snap at any moment, and Ben Richardson’s crisp and economic direction suits the weary, almost sullen mood. The premiere episode succeeds because of its small notes, even if the double-whammy A-list casting of Mirren and Ford will intentionally distract most people.

Corrin Hodgson’s cinematography is lush, an intriguing palette of colours which slowly emerge from the inescapable dirt and grit of the near-sepia which is written into the DNA of the western genre. It also helps that Sheridan finishes the first episode with a slap-your-face moment which almost demands you tune in again to see what happens next.

‘1923’ Review: Leisurely Paced ‘Yellowstone’ Prequel Off to a Promising Start


Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren play Dutton ancestors in the latest Paramount+ expansion of the franchise
Thelma Adams | December 19, 2022 @ 4:43 PM



Harrison Ford stars in "1923" (Paramount+)


Montana hasn’t seen the likes of Helen Mirren behind a shotgun before – until now. The Oscar-winning Dame, a pioneer in the film-to-TV migration with her BBC show “Prime Suspect,” plays Cara Dutton, the family matriarch in Taylor Sheridan’s “1923,” the “Yellowstone” prequel and “1883” sequel. As it turns out, the tough-but-tender Mrs. Dutton can chase an injured interloper crawling across her land and pull the trigger while looking the villain in the eye as he begs for his life. Nevertheless, the killing leaves her wailing at the sky like an agitated mama wolf pushed to her limits. Fortunately for the clan’s future, Cara’s antagonist has given his last shout.

And then we get to meet the Mister, Jacob Dutton (Harrison Ford). He’s the ancestor of Kevin Costner’s John Dutton III and brother to Tim McGraw’s James Dutton. Binoculars in hand, surrounded by cowboys, surveying his dying cattle, flies feeding on their bovine eyes and locusts dotting his neckerchief, we see the star in all his Fordiness. This is a face for Mount Rushmore: so craggy, every wrinkle exposed and scar earned, no hint of doubt behind his eyes. And then he speaks: and he has that rumble whisper that brooks no bullshit that audiences love. Let’s ride!


The Duttons have already built an empire in the American West. They’re sitting on a pile of land that stretches as far as the eye can see. But, as always, there are problems: locusts and drought and land-wars; Scottish sheep herders versus Irish cattle ranchers battling for dominance of the (free) range; the coming Depression; and damn danger-seeking, bronco-riding kids that can’t settle down. This is not a bunch that’s into peaceful coexistence.

Even the prodigal son, Spencer (Brandon Sklenar), who’s taking his time and breaking his mother’s heart returning from the killing fields of WW1 by way of Kenya, gets a shot off. He slays a lion (I am hoping the awkward visual effects were just temporary). And tracks man-eating jaguars in a very Ernest Hemingway (24 in 1923) parallel plot that will have you pulling out your Norton Anthology to read his great white hunter stories. Or dressing in safari khakis and buying vintage camp furniture.

Reviewing a series from a single episode requires a psychic, but from what I can tell from the premiere Paramount + made available to press, we have a lot of expository ground to cover. The ranch. The conflicts among the men who’ve controlled the land for generations, and the incomers who still believe in the freedoms they were promised by Lady Liberty. It all seems pretty standard, male-dominated stuff with an aproned Mirren a pop of dusty blues and roses among the dirt-clod brown – and then Jennifer Ehle arrives as a sadistic nun.

We’ve seen this kind of menacing scene before, too. The strict sister disciplining a Native American girl, and demanding the young woman explain soap’s ingredients (that’s not on the SAT). What the heck is lye anyway? But this irate Bride of Jesus has her own vicious agenda and a wicked way with a stick. She’s intent on breaking this proud young woman’s spirit, and watching her fellow students crack along with her. Oddly, this is when the plot shifts – and the pupil fights back. When was the last time you saw a girl come out swinging and clock a nun? And it only gets stranger when Sister and student visit the principal and the real lesson begins: this holy father is a man without mercy.

The first episode introduces some intriguing characters and cultural dynamics. I look forward to seeing what happens with the nun, and savoring the easy rapport of Jacob and Cara Dutton as age-appropriate husband and wife. The drama so far is leisurely paced and there’s a lot of chunky exposition. When “Yellowstone” came out in 2018, it had time to find its audience before it became a hit. Now, as 2023 looms, there are more eyes watching “1923” from the first episode, but I, for one, would follow Mirren and Ford anywhere. Let’s see what happens.


“1923” debuted on Paramount + on December 18, with new episodes premiering weekly on Sundays.

REVIEW
1923, review: forget Succession – let Helen Mirren lure you into the 'Taylorverse'

4/5

Even those new to Taylor Sheridan's macho TV dramas could be enticed by this Yellowstone prequel, which stars Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren
ByAnita Singh, ARTS AND ENTERTAINMENT EDITOR19 December 2022 • 6:00am





The most popular cable show in America is Yellowstone, an epic saga about a family of ranchers in Montana. Think of it as Dallas but with cows. The studio behind it says it has “hit a cultural nerve”, by which they mean it has reminded TV executives that shows like Succession may be beloved on social media, but there is a massive audience of ordinary folk out there who would rather have Kevin Costner in a Stetson. It is old-fashioned storytelling of a high order.

The show’s creator, Taylor Sheridan, is a real-life Texan cowboy who has become one of the most powerful people in television by understanding what people want to watch. He has already written one Yellowstone prequel, 1883, and now here is 1923 (Paramount+), the latest addition to the “Taylorverse” (a third Yellowstone spinoff, titled 6666, is in production). In a casting coup, Harrison Ford plays the head of the family, Jacob Dutton, with Helen Mirren as his wife, Cara.

Is it worth you signing up to Paramount+ to watch it? (This is easier said than done, if my experience of trying to register and log in via my Sky box is anything to go by.) Well, a working knowledge of Yellowstone isn’t necessary; I couldn’t really tell you how Jacob is related to Costner’s character (a great-great-grand uncle, I think?). Just take it on its own merits and it’s a classy product.

This is the first major TV role of Ford’s career, believe it or not, but he looks entirely comfortable here. That’s because 1923 has the cinematography and scope of a film, and because Ford gets to play the kind of gruff, understated leading man that has sustained his career. The Duttons have established themselves but they face the same problems as everyone else on the Great Plains: locusts and drought have ravaged the land, and the Great Depression is looming.

Ford and Mirren have a comfortable chemistry as husband and wife, and Mirren’s character is an attractive blend of tough-as-old-boots, gun-toting cattle rancher and sympathetic matriarch. Her Irish accent is pretty terrible, though (albeit nothing like as bad as the abomination that is Jerome Flynn here, attempting to sound like a Scottish sheepherder).

The first episode lays the groundwork for the series, also introducing us to a convent run by nuns who treat their Native American charges with breathtaking cruelty, and a Dutton nephew who served in the First World War and is now a big-game hunter-for-hire in Africa. The African scenes are a letdown: CGI animals and comical British toffs are just plain ropey, interrupting this prestige series with scenes that play like George of the Jungle.

With "1923," the "Yellowstone" universe grimly enlists Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren
Ford and Mirren. What more does the Dutton family need? How about a more cohesive narrative and a smidgen of joy?

Five seasons into "Yellowstone" it's easy to see that all of its offshoots are possible because of Kevin Costner – not necessarily the actor himself, but our idea of him.

In John Dutton III, Taylor Sheridan has a part requiring someone heroic to such a degree as to allow him to get away with distasteful acts. John Dutton is great, but he's not a good guy; his determination and independent streak appeal to an audience that admires the model of success that prioritizes legacy over sentiment and power over people. Costner has played an assortment of Western protagonists, but Sheridan's wealthy rancher is a second skin enabling him to play against type.

The match between actor and role is potent enough to inspire a whole family tree of prequels featuring Dutton forebears portrayed by Middle America's heroes. "1883," an instant hit for Paramount+, stars one of country music's best-loved couples Faith Hill and Tim McGraw as John Dutton's great-great grandparents Margaret and James Dutton, initially introduced in "Yellowstone."

Increasing the legendary cowboy quotient is Sam Elliott's Pinkerton agent, with Tom Hanks and Billy Bob Thornton passing through to sweeten the deal. How do you step up from there? "1923" answers by enlisting Harrison Ford, the nation's favorite cowboy-swashbuckling archaeologist-president rolled up in one perennially scowling Dutton ancestor named Jacob.


One episode does not a series make. But "1923" tests our faith.

This being a Sheridan product, there must be a fierce, respected lady figure to balance out Jacob's life on the ranch; enter Helen Mirren as his Irish wife Cara. "Ford and Mirren" reads like quite the Golden Age cinematic duo, doesn't it? And with the two of them in the place and an entire Montana prairie as their stage, what more do we need?

The premiere answers that by crying out for a cohesive point.

One episode does not a series make, even one of the limited variety. But "1923" tests our faith by presenting subplots running on separate tracks in various places on the planet. In one hourlong sweep, we're transported from Montana to Kenya, where a relative is running from psychological damage inflicted by his tour in World War I by tracking apex predators, and back to Jacob Dutton's locust-decimated land.

Montana's population has changed, and its conflicts are now between rival groups of European immigrants, with Dutton and his lawmen holding the badges and gavels of the "we were here first" class. Sheridan's series take pains to remind viewers that isn't true, but in "1923" that notion takes on bloodier implications.


Mirren is no shrinking violet, and neither is the woman she portrays.

While sheepherders and cattlemen battle over their right to graze their stock on land that can't sustain them, Indigenous children have been forced into government boarding schools designed to strip them of their culture. As if to disabuse his viewers of any fantasies about how those places operated, Sheridan introduces Aminah Nieves' Teonna Rainwater by having her spend most of her time onscreen being beaten bloody by a nun.

I'm merely a casual "Yellowstone" viewer, so I'll leave tracing the family tree to others and discovery, especially since a few transformational changes transpired between "1883" and "1923" that are explained by a familiar-sounding narrator.

The unifying thread joining the now of "1923" and "1883's" version of then is violence, established in both prequels by having its female stars survive some type of nastiness before doling out pain in kind. Mirren's wrath rips through the screen in a heart-stopping scene I'm guessing will be explained later in the season but in the moment isn't quite connected to anyway. That's fine; its main purpose is to remind us of how physically imposing she can be when her characters are messed with. No shrinking violet, this performer, and neither is the woman she portrays.

Ford's stoicism leads the "1923"' mood, a match for the land nature has turned against Montana's cattlemen. But it doesn't make for the most compelling flavor over an hour that struggles to prevent the casual viewer's attention from wandering. People lacking the stomach for history-inspired fiction that overcorrects for the years of whitewashing by showing the few non-white characters suffering horrendously may want to look elsewhere, too.

Others can take heart in what the Sheridan-verse holds as a central truth, which is that the spoils of the land are won by those willing to do terrible things to earn and keep it, and the rest can either bend to that way or take their shots. It's a rough philosophy, but it frequently makes for riveting TV.

Sheridan's track record leads me to guess that most people will trust that the scattered plot of "1923" will eventually knot into a story worth noting in the Dutton family Bible. For now, it proves that appreciating life in the present, as seen in "Yellowstone," is preferable to gazing backward, no matter how starry that view may be.

Yellowstone is an American neo-Western drama television series created by Taylor Sheridan and John Linson that premiered on June 20, 2018, on Paramount Network. The series stars Kevin Costner, Luke Grimes, Kelly Reilly, Wes Bentley, Cole Hauser, Kelsey Asbille, and Gil Birmingham. The series follows the conflicts along the shared borders of the Yellowstone Ranch, a large cattle ranch, the Broken Rock Indian reservation, Yellowstone National Park and land developers. The first part of the fifth season premiered on November 13, 2022, with the second part premiering in 2023.

In 2013, Sheridan began work on the series, having recently grown tired of acting and begun writing screenplays. Having lived in the rural parts of states such as Texas and Wyoming, Sheridan set the series in Montana and went about writing the first scripts in Livingston. Sheridan initially pitched the series to HBO, but the network declined. The series follows the Dutton family, owners of the largest ranch in Montana, the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch, commonly called "the Yellowstone". The plot revolves around family drama at the ranch and the bordering Broken Rock Indian Reservation, Yellowstone National Park, and developers. In May 2017, Paramount Network announced that it had greenlit its first scripted series, Yellowstone. Paramount issued a series order for a first season consisting of ten episodes. The series was set to be written, directed, and executive-produced by Sheridan.

A prequel series, titled 1883, premiered on December 19, 2021, on Paramount+, and focuses on a generation of the Dutton family during the Old West as they undertake the arduous journey across the country before settling the land that would become the Yellowstone Ranch. The series was announced following a five-year deal signed by Sheridan with ViacomCBS and MTV Entertainment Group. A second prequel series titled 1923 premiered on December 18, 2022, on Paramount+, and focuses on a new generation of the Dutton Family during the time of Western Expansion, Prohibition, and the Great Depression, which in Montana started a decade earlier. A third planned spin-off titled Bass Reeves is in development and will focus on the life of the titular character. A fourth planned spin-off titled 6666 is also in development and is set in the present day on the Four Sixes Ranch in Texas.

Production[edit]

Development[edit]

In 2013, Taylor Sheridan began work on the series, having recently grown tired of acting and begun writing screenplays. Having lived in the rural parts of states such as Texas and Wyoming, Sheridan set the series in Montana and went about writing the first scripts in Livingston.^[3] Sheridan initially pitched the series to HBO, but the network declined.^[4]

In May 2017, Paramount Network announced that it had greenlit its first scripted series, Yellowstone. Paramount issued a series order for a first season consisting of ten episodes. The series was set to be written, directed, and executive-produced by Sheridan. Other executive producers were to include John Linson, Art Linson, Harvey Weinstein, and David Glasser. Production companies involved with the series were set to consist of Linson Entertainment and The Weinstein Company.^[1]

In October 2017, it was announced that following reports of sexual abuse allegations against producer Harvey Weinstein, his name would be removed from the series' credits as would The Weinstein Company.^[5] In January 2018, Kevin Kay, president of Paramount Network, clarified during the annual Television Critics Association's winter press tour that Yellowstone will not have The Weinstein Company's credits or logo on them, even though that company was involved in production. He stated that their intent is to replace Weinstein Television with the company's new name in the show's credits when available.^[6] That same day, it was announced that the series would premiere on June 20, 2018.^[7]

In July 2018, it was announced that Paramount Network had renewed the series for a second season that was expected to premiere in 2019.^[8] In March 2019, it was announced that the second season would premiere on June 19, 2019.^[9] In June 2019, the series was renewed by Paramount for a third season, which premiered on June 21, 2020.^[10][11] In February 2020, Paramount Network renewed the series for a fourth season, ahead of the premiere of its third season.^[12] The fourth season premiered on November 7, 2021.^[13] In February 2022, Paramount Network renewed the series for a fifth season, which will be split into two installments of seven episodes each.^[14][15][16] The fifth season premiered on November 13, 2022.^[17]

Filming[edit]

Principal photography for the series began in August 2017 at the Chief Joseph Ranch in Darby, Montana, which stands in as the home of John Dutton. Filming also took place that month near Park City, Utah. The production used all three soundstages at the Utah Film Studios in Park City, which is a total of 45,000 square feet. The building also houses offices, editing, a wardrobe department and construction shops. By November 2017, the series had filmed in more than twenty locations in Utah, including the Salt Flats, Promontory Club, and Spanish Fork. Additionally, filming also took place at various locations in Montana. Production reportedly lasted until December 2017.^[32][33]

In August 2020, the series announced that filming was completely moved to Montana. An undisclosed production location was rented in Missoula, Montana.^[34] Film locations included the Community Medical Center, Ryman Street near the County Courthouse, and a diner (Ruby's Cafe) on Brooks Street in Missoula, as well as places in nearby Hamilton, Montana.^[35]

John Dutton's "Log Mansion"[edit]

Chief Joseph Ranch in Darby, Montana.

Filming of the "log mansion" home of John Dutton^[37] is at the main house of the Chief Joseph Ranch, which is now a guest ranch just south of Darby.^[38]

The house was built between 1914 and 1917 after Cincinnati, Ohio residents William S. Ford (1866–1935) and Howard Clark Hollister (1856–1919) purchased 2,500 acres on the Bitterroot River for a vacation home and formed the Ford-Hollister Ranch. Ford was chairman of Owens-Illinois Glass in Toledo, Ohio.^[39] Hollister was a judge for the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio. Bates & Gamble of Toledo were the architects. The house is 5,000 square feet including a 2,200 square foot parlor.^[40]

The house has a log cabin motif and was dubbed "log mansion" by The New York Times.^[40] It has been compared in style to the Old Faithful Inn which opened in 1904 and is 294 driving miles^[41] away in Yellowstone National Park. The Times described it as "A diverse combination of arches, gables and dormers, set off by logs placed vertically and horizontally, adds an elegance to log-home design that is seldom seen."^[40]

The complex includes 3 large barns built to house Holstein cattle. It was claimed it was the largest dairy herd west of the Mississippi River. Ford later gave up the dairy cattle and began raising Hereford cattle.^[42] After Ford died, his wife and daughter operated it as a guest house. They sold it in 1952. It went through a series of new owners who renamed it for Chief Joseph who is said to have passed through its area during the Nez Perce War. Mel Pervais, a self-made millionaire and member of the Ojibwa Nation, owned it from 1987 to 2004.

Music[edit]

The series' score was composed by Thor King. He worked with musicians from the London Philharmonia Orchestra and viola, cello, and violin soloists. On August 17, 2018, the soundtrack for the first season was released by Sony Music.^[43]

Release[edit]

A teaser trailer for the series was released on February 28, 2018,^[44] with the first full trailer being released on April 26.^[45] On June 25, 2018, the series held a screening at Seriesfest, an annual international television festival, at the Red Rocks Amphitheater near Denver, Colorado.^[46][47] The first season was released on Blu-ray and DVD on December 4, 2018.^[48]

Streaming[edit]

NBCUniversal's Peacock acquired the U.S. streaming rights to Yellowstone in 2020, with the first two seasons debuting in July of that year.^[49] Paramount Global President and CEO Bob Bakish has since called the timing of the deal "unfortunate"; due to the show's improved reception, viewership, and popularity in its later seasons. Critics have noted that Yellowstone's absence from Paramount's own, similarly named streaming service, Paramount+ (in-spite of the show's spinoffs being produced for the service), in addition to current seasons available on Paramount Network's app and website primarily through TV Everywhere (requiring a paid television subscription), have caused confusion among viewers and the show's fans on social media.^[50][51]

Full episodes and seasons of Yellowstone are available for purchase on all major digital entertainment distribution stores in the U.S., with Amazon's Prime Video streaming new episodes in Canada the day after their U.S. broadcast on Paramount Network.^[52] Starting with the fifth season, it will be moved to Paramount+ in Canada,^[53] and the UK,^[54] and to SkyShowtime in any territories where the service is already available.^[55] As with the previous seasons in Canada, new episodes will be released the day after the U.S. airing.

After the fifth-season premiere airing, CMT started rerunning those episodes after being released on Paramount Network on Friday.

The critical consensus for that season reads, "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."^[75]
