Is it worth it to watch Yellowstone?

[Anonymous]

My husband just finished season 1. I got 3/4 through the first episode and stopped. Worth it to resume? He likes it so far, but we typically have different tastes so I'm getting more opinions as to whether it's worth a retry. THanks

SAME!! Apparently there’s a hot & heavy love affair and I’ve been told to stick with it, but, something about it seems so slow....

No. It's a snooze.

No, it jumps the shark really badly.

I like it for the scenery, the escapist cowboy lifestyle, and Kevin Costner. The plot can be silly and/or strain credulity sometimes but I still like it.

Season 2 was EXCITING and gripping. The rest, not so much.

I liked it. Some graphic violence and lots of plot holes, but it kept my attention.

I loved it. Escapism.

Loved it. Violent though. Like, my sister lives in Montana is like yeah, no.

Ugh.
I can’t I see the scene where they duct tape the new ranch hand to the wild horse, and haze both the young man and the horse. It was over for me then.

Not worth it on its own. I can tolerate it, my spouse loves it, the scenery is great and we have no other current mindless show that we like right now so I watch it.

DH and I (who do not always share the same tastes in TV shows, but sometimes do) both love it.

DH is from Montana- Bozeman, even which is more or less where Yellowstone is set- and his parents still live there. He thinks Yellowstone strikes most of the right notes when it comes to portraying life in Montana. Not the melodrama and violence, obviously. That’s dramatic license for television. But the tensions with the reservation, the tensions between the old-school cowboys and the affluent newcomers are accurate for him. And he recognizes a lot of the character types, too. He also likes the fact that much of the show is obviously filmed in Montana. I know that part of it is filmed in Park City (which is also gorgeous), but I believe the next season has all been filmed in Montana.

I would keep watching, OP. If you find it slow, there is plenty of action in the second season as a PP pointed out. I don’t mind the slower pace, though. I find that the story moves along well each episode, even in those quieter episodes where there is less drama.

Where can you stream all seasons?

I binged all seasons and love it. Can’t wait for the next season. It is escapism and I care about a few of the characters. I highly recommend the series to everyone.
