I agree Yellowstone faded a lot in season 4 (I think?), when it was all about offshoot projects (1883, 6666 show) and featuring all Sheridan's rodeo buddies and all the horse reining. Plus all the romances in the bunkhouse got a bit much- the barrel racer characters added nothing to the show and weren't overly likable. I don't have a problem with the show ending- you can only tell that story so many times. Writing Costner out without killing him onscreen will be odd.
The other strange thing is how much he recycles his actors. James Jordan is pretty much in every Sheridan TV show and movie.
1883-- Excellent show- one and done season. Really good.
1923- A few annoying characters but I really enjoyed it as well. The residential school (not sure if that's what they called them in the US) was heartbreaking. Hopefully season 2 is as good.
Lioness- I was most skeptical about this one, but turned out to be one of my favourites. Zoe Saldana was good, and so were the special ops team. Will see if season two is as good.
Tulsa King- Again, I was skeptical initially. Stallone was perfect and the show was quite funny as well. Looking forward to season 2.
Mayor of Kingstown- Loved season 1. Season 2 faded for me just a bit. Season 3 is ok so far.
Then there's the other spinoffs coming: Landman (Billy bob thornton), 6666 (Yellowstone spinoff in Texas), 1923 season 2?, other Yellowstone spinoffs supposedly (1944 and 2024- probably featuring Rip, Beth etc.).
