If you have been waiting to jump on the Yellowstone bandwagon, then take this as your sign to jump on! We are excited to give you 7 reasons why you need to watch the hottest new series on television, besides the obvious one being it’s the best thing since sliced bread. Okay, all jokes aside, let’s dive in!
Yellowstone embodies the essence of the American West, and people are eating it up. A great example of this was last year when the series was released, everyone was Rip and Beth for Halloween. People are always looking for an excuse to play cowboy and Yellowstone gave them a reason. The series does a phenomenal job of giving its viewers the feel of living “life on the range”, while also providing the drama of a good TV show that everyone craves.
Speaking of drama, if it’s one thing you watch this show for, it should be the storyline and the drama that comes with it. You can’t beat the amazing landscape surrounding the show, but what about the storyline itself? At its core, the series is based on the complications that surround the Dutton Ranch, which is the largest contiguous ranch in the United States, based in Montana. The show navigates issues with the Broken Rock Indian reservation, the government, and land developers. Viewers love a good family-drama series, and this show checks all the boxes.
This is a huge reason to watch Yellowstone, whether you are an avid Western Industry enthusiast or you are brand new to the industry, there are several issues that the industry is currently facing that the show sheds light on throughout their seasons. In the seasons we have seen so far, the Dutton family faced issues with cattle rustlers, land developers, and threats from the Indian Reservation that the land they own is rightfully theirs. These are all issues, especially developers, that modern ranches face. We could go much deeper into the agriculture issues that permeate the industry, but we should wait and see what Season 5 brings us.
Let’s talk about music! If the intro to Yellowstone doesn’t give you all of the goosebumps, then keep listening because the soundtrack to this series is unlike anything else you will hear from any other TV show on the air. Let’s take Season 4 for example, you could listen to artists such as Colter Wall, Turnpike Troubadours, Chris Stapleton, Casey Donahew, Tyler Childers and so many more. If you’re already a fan of Texas Red Dirt Music, then this series is going to be fun to watch because there are so many artists included that you will know. In addition, it’s awesome to see a mainstream TV series using some artists that have been flying under the mainstream radar and deserve the spotlight.
This reason might just be directed towards our equine fans out there, but Yellowstone deserves applause for getting the best of the best in the AQHA to come in and be a part of the show. Let’s start with Season 1, Episode 5 when AQHA reining world champion and National Reining Horse Association Futurity champion Lil Joe Cash appeared onscreen with NRHA million dollar rider and trainer Andrea Fappani. For all the horse people wanting to watch good riding on a television show, they got it in this episode! But it wasn’t just Lil Joe Cash that made an appearance in Season 1, he was joined by million co-champion and World Equestrian Games medalist, Custom Made Gun as well as many other world-renowned reining champions and trainers.
Even for someone who has never watched the show, we still guarantee that they have heard of the great Beth Dutton. The infamous daughter of John Dutton on the show plays a gritty and rough-around-the-edges character that people can’t help but fall in love with. Speaking of love, Beth’s relationship with Rip Wheeler is a huge attraction for the show as viewers live vicariously through Beth and her dramatic relationship with her husband, Rip.
From the great Beth Dutton,
“I believe in lovin’ with your whole soul and destroying anything that wants to kill what you love. That’s it. That’s all there is.” (Season 3, Episode 10)
