'Yellowstone' Season 5 is here and so is all the drama circling it. The neo-western drama television series created by Taylor Sheridan and John Linson, which premiered on June 20, 2018, has been nothing but a rave-about series ever since it premiered. It’s more popular than ever; Season 4 apparently averaged 10.4 million total viewers on the Paramount Network, and more spinoffs are in the works, including next month’s prequel '1923' (itself a sequel to '1883') and eventually '6666,' that Jimmy’s departure last year spent so much time setting up.

It is not every day you will see such a shocking opening of a booming series. The Paramount Network series stars Kevin Costner, Luke Grimes, Wes Bentley, Kelly Reilly, Cole Hauser, and Gil Birmingham. The series episode follows the conflicts along the shared borders of a large cattle ranch, an Indian reservation, and land developers. However, this time the conflicts concluded in a proverbial vengeance. The back-to-back episodes also broke another record as the Season 5 premiere broke the rating record with 12.1 million viewers.
