What makes this "universe" so fascinating? I liked 1883, but outside of that, what about this whole thing makes almost 10 separate series necessary?
IDK, I liked Yellowstone over the first 2 or maybe 3 seasons, but it got way over the top as time went on. TBF the first season doesn't hold up as well for me. I also liked 1883. The story writing is good if you like that style, but I think the actors have a lot to do with the success, especially Cosner. I also liked Harrison Ford and Hellen Mirren in the first season of 1923, but there's too much drift as that one goes on.

I was done with Biff and Beth by the end of the 2nd season of Yellowstone. Too much WAAAAAAYYYYYY over the top stuff for me.

oh it got much worse. especially with Beth and Jamie. Just when you think it can't get more ridiculous, it does. and then they killed off the main character that made the show, because everyone knows that Costner walked. Probably because the writer wasn't fully invested anymore and wanted to write his character into the show more. the last season was sloppy. there were some episodes that had a lot of filler with pop music and promos.

I loved Beth to start the first season. The actress is always nails and is gorgeous, and she was interesting...then she stayed the same. No freaking character arc. Boring.

That’s the problem she didn’t stay the same they turned her into a Marvel Superhero who also happens to be a Bond Villain.

Her long drawn out I’m a bad ass speeches were hilariously bad.

The ratings speak for themself. These shows are making $ and lots of it. Of course they’re going to keep making them. Silly to think otherwise. Not your cup of tea? Cool don’t watch it. Pretty basic.

i watched the first few episodes and thought it was pretty good... Beth is no longer the monster she was in Yellowstone and when you remove the demon bitch its a decent character,...and Rip was one of the better characters all along.
Then they added in Natalie Alyn Lynd..and I have already admitted my improper dirty old man crush on her...woohooooo...
but they have the same basic formula that made Yellowstone successful,...its just the Duttons aint the bad guys in this one

Taylor Sheridan makes shows for cucks who have a tough guy fantasy. If you’ve ever actually been around cowboys, horses and that life or been on jobsites you would know how embarrassing those shows are.

That’s absolutely hysterical considering very few movies TV shows, etc. are based in any sort of reality or realism…. Hollywood in general is all about sensationalism. They take liberties and damn near everything including “true stories” All they care about is what makes money And these shows do exactly that. In droves.

It’s ok to be a Taylor Sheridan fan bud. If you like watching superhero cowboys who never lose a fight, are bullet proof and wax on poetically this code they live by that’s your thing more power to you. It’s just not for others.

I’m well aware I wasn’t asking for your permission lol… I’m sure you watch plenty of things that are not realistic in any way shape or form. Suspension of disbelief it’s called.
