Yellowstone

Yellowstone. Anyone here watched it? Best show I've watched in years. Don't think anyone I've asked that has seen it disagrees, but I'm sure some of you guys will...................................

1883 was good.  1923 has started off good.  Yellowstone is a combination of Dallas and The Godfather.

I have watched Yellowstone from the second year; 1883 was good but only saw the first two; 1923 is good but confusing and often hard to understand unless you have captions.
I am too darn lazy but we have a smart TV and with a little effort could get the one month free from Paramount.

Now the one with Sylvester Stallone was interesting but again only saw the first two; I saw the firt two of the prison series and had on TV but did not watch the one that followed 1923 last night.

IF the end of Yellowstone is what right now seems obvious, it will be disappointing but the writer likes to surprise. 8)

I've watched them all and really put together well with great cast and storylines.  The only thing I have to do is blur out a lot of the ranching and livestock portions, very Hollywood.  For instance, the first episode of 1923 when they were driving the starving cattle to richer pastures, and they all were extremely healthy and fat.  I know you can't starve cattle just for realism, but they could have at least used some that weren't near calving or finished.  Just one example of dozens.  As i said I just blur it out if I can.  Although sometimes I point it out to my wife and she says nobody but farm boys notice that...

Same reason some can’t watch westerns. Guns not even made in the cowboys holster or scabbard for only one example. If you can’t look past your knowledge for the entertainment value then maybe you just know too much and should not watch movies because more than not, you’ll be disappointed.

LOL, but you probably liked John Wayne movies. They were as realistic as "Star Trek" and John Wayne was a pathetic actor.  ;D

He did a movie with Kurt Russel that was pretty good and The Expendables wasn't too bad. All were sort of comedy with a lot of shooting. My wife really doesn't like him at all but she is watch Tulsa Kings with me and enjoying it.

Just started watching the Yellowstone series yesterday evening, the first 3 chapters, a borrowed set of DVD's, and now have three seasons to plow through.  Sort of liked what I have seen so far.  Multiple murder coverups is in keeping, I suppose, with Washington, DC, Politicians, and the Uber-rich in America. 

Wish the daughter wasn't so trailer-trash.  For a staunch father [Costner (lead)], her role is a bit unsettling, not really excusable from the writer's feeble high-plain mother's abysmal disaster in the children's upbringing, but probably has some benefits in upcoming chapters, and entertains the redneck viewers.  The Indian vs. White man and Reservation vs. "formerly it all was our land" conflicts are tiring...

The rich landowner who wants to develop "Paradise Valley" is a weak character (so far).

Since the show is the most popular one on TV, both this and last year, there must be a huge number of so called rednecks watching.  ;D

Just keep watching, L-O, and you will find the trashy blond is the BBOTP. You will figure out what that stands for as you watch. It's a TV show, not real life. Still a fun watch though.

Been watching the series and find it entertaining and not having to deal with all the wokeness everywhere else. Liked 1883 pretty well, but just watched 1923 and spent half the time trying to figure out who was who to who and where they fit into the big picture. Feels like they ran out of time or money and left it unfinished.

I'm thinkin 1923 is better than 1883.

dont worry tv is controled by the liberals so theres no way there going to let big buisness take his ranch away and make an airport and motel and take land away from the indians. The greenies will win in the end. Heck they even have kevin falling in love with a radical global warming activist. It ends with him winning.

Bottom line is if you dont want liberal agenda youd have to shut your tv off forever. Just about every movie and tv show has gays and interatrial couples in it today. Even on the the cop and military movies ands shows. Bottom line is they all come out of Hollywood  CALIFORNIA. Id bet on shows like yellowstone and movies like top gun 90 percent of the cast and crew and producers voted for biden. If not more. Watching any tv and thinking its a conservative show is like eating pork chops and thinking your not hurting pigs. I watch it and im not going to pretend i dont know better.

we havent started watch it yet. I like to wait till all the episodes are recorded and they watch the whole thing. Its usually easier for a dumb ass like me to understand that way. I do that with most series. have them recorded on the hopper and take them one at a time.   Only exception is yellowstone. The wife would go nuts if she didnt have her weekly fix of rip and kevin.

I haven't watched anything by Kevin Costner, since he acted in the phony series..(documentary :D ;D) "Five Hundred Nations"..

   I spend very little time on fiction anyway..but that's just me, I would rather learn by viewing.

No cable or satellite here, so I've
never seen a minute of any of it.
I've been told it's more or less the
"DALLAS " television show but in
a different time and place.
I've also had a hundred texts from
people I know that say " Have you
seen beth ? That beth is hot ! I wish
I could get my hands on beth ! I'd
show her what was what  ! ! "

I didn't have the slightest clue who
that was, so I looked it up.
She's nothing.  I guess people are
easily entertained these days by
an actor portraying a slut
Maybe I'll watch it someday when
the pawn shops get the discs in
for a few dollars.
18 MINUTES.  . . . . . .

Yep, and if Wayne had only been 5 ft 11 inches tall, he would be working as an extra!

I haven't watched any of Yellowstone. The  SIFI channel has really been getting its act together, since they got their new management. Where before, they sucked.

Just finished "binge-watching" Seasons 1 to 3.  Interesting TV drama ending, of course, on a Cliffhanger.  Its depiction of Rural Justice is insane.  Government's overreach is probably spot on. 

We've fictitiously concluded that Montana isn't a nice State, if you are not nice, but is full of beautiful and rich landscapes.  I've never been a huge fan of rodeo but got a chuckle out of "buckle bunnies" and like the writers for most of Lloyd's lines.  Women who love Country is a stone that I never turned over.

Well, it's kinda like the long running TV series "Blue Bloods". If it were real, ole Dannys' body count would be into the thousands.

Its entertainment.

"Its entertainment."

Exactly and if it was true to real life NO ONE would watch it because it would be dull and boring. I remember seeing comments about "Longmier" when it was new from Wyoming rsidents complaining that it didn't reflect real life in that state. Of course it didn't. Who would watch a show about chasing a cow or three off the highways now and then and ticketing an occasional unsafe driver? Movies, TV, and novels have to have action or they don't make it off the ground. Got to have realism? Read a history book.
