Yellowstone

[GOPHER SLAYER]

Gave they started a new season foe Yellowstone? If they have, I have not seen it. No big deal, it got to be boring anyway.

[Randy Bohannon]

Didn’t like Yellowstone that much do like 1886 and 1921. Sheridan Taylor is a gifted movie maker. Wind River might be his best movie to date.

I saw a video that perfectly described Yellowstone as a Hallmark movie for men. My wife is obnoxiously obsessed with Hallmark Christmas movies this time of year. It's become a running game that after 2 or 3 one minute trips through the room she is watching it in, I can predict the plot, character development, and twist with about 90% accuracy.

Main points:

- Big city child returns home to save family business (ranch)

- Rekindles old flame with rough-and-tumble co-main character who is the furthest thing from the life she left in the city

- Country kid turned big city lawyer with an adoption backstory twist

- Bond with horses changes the life of another character with a bit of a criminal history

- Interracial couple bringing up a child in both cultures

- Heart-throb cowboy that appeals to both the men and the women, albeit for different reasons

- Music stars make guest appearances to keep relevant or appeal to nostalgia of those watching, depending on the level/age of said star

I've watched a few episodes and could take it or leave. Not enough TV time to invest in dramas at this level.

This is damn funny! I can relate.

Nothing to see here, move along. Perfectly describes Hallmark movies.

It's always blowing that white stuff and their drinking hot chocolate.

Rumor says 2025 for the next season...

The most hated show in Montana.

I enjoyed the first couple seasons. But after that, I found the plot line just repeated itself...I did watch the 3rd season and some of the 4th, until I said to my self, "enough".

[Randy Bohannon]

The most hated show in Montana.

And Wyoming it depicts us as a dumping ground for murder victims.

[Rapier]

Yes- No- Maybe. Everyone has got other work or problems, so whom actually knows.

A horse soap opera about criminal psychopaths pretending to be cowboys in a cult lead by John Dutton in Montana.
The "train station" to dispose of disliked help. Branding to be a cult member. Covering up crimes left and right.

I liked it when it first came out, but it’s getting a little soapy. Loved 1886, though.

[Tripplebeards]

Thought they discontinued it becuase Costner quit. Imo 1823 is better with Africa hunting!

1923.

Saw it, a great series. I thought I had missed a pre prequel

In my youth there was a neighbor who was in the Second Boer war in South Africa. His stories of the game and the lighting storms on the veldt were fascinating. He saw few battles as the Battalion he was in (Lord Strathcona's Horse) would enter a region and the Boers would go back to their farms, sell them milk, eggs, and corn. When they left an area the Boer militia would form up and become active. The Brits were very canny as they paid a portion of wages in script for 160 acres of crown land (or more) anywhere in the British empire. This fellow bought script from the soldiers who were gambling on shipboard on the trip home and used it to build a small ranching empire.
For being tough, resilient, resourceful, and self reliant, he made John Dutton look like a boy scout. I do not think there was anything the man was afraid of. he had a great deal of respect for Hyenas. A bite from a hyena broke bones and if the victim survived the bite, they would die of septic infection of the wound within a week

When I knew the man and listened to his stories he was the same age as I am now.
He did not embellish or cast himself as hero or victim. And over the years the stories were consistent. His greatest respect for the predators of South Africa was for the Hyena. He called them a nasty piece of work that would enter a camp, enter a tent and start to eat a soldier alive.

I really enjoyed 1886.
Don't have the pay channel, so don't know about the others.
I like Yellowstone.
Beth is great.
I like how they poke at the wokes and kalafonia.
Saw that this might be the end.
costnor was good in it, but he's a woke.
Wasn't surprised when he quit.
It's what wokes do when they can't have their way.
Noting bu spoiled brats.
