‘Yellowstone’ Fans Need To Watch This Beloved Award-Winning Western Franchise
Considered by many to be the greatest Western ever, ‘Lonesome Dove’ spawned many series, and it’s perfect for ‘Yellowstone’ fans.

Discussing the development of Y: Marshals, Grimes revealed that the follow-up will open up the world far more than Yellowstone ever did, while giving Kayce the chance to carve his own path and find his place within that world.

“I can’t say it too much about it (Y: Marshals), but, you know, I will say that the story that we’ve started to figure out for him really opens up the world for him in a way that Yellowstone sort of couldn’t. You know, he was always sort of stuck in between this rock and hard place. And it was…it was a character that just, you know, he kept saying, “I don’t know what to do with my life. I don’t know where to fit in.” Oh my God, I’m so sick of saying that. So I think finally he has somewhere to go and something to do. And it’s, it’ll be very exciting.”

“With the Yellowstone Ranch behind him, Dutton joins an elite unit of U.S. Marshals, combining his skills as a cowboy and Navy SEAL to bring range justice to Montana, where he and his teammates must balance family, duty and the high psychological cost that comes with serving as the last line of defense in the region’s war on violence.”

Since coming to a divisive conclusion with the end of its fifth season, Yellowstone has launched all manner of spin-offs, including the prequel shows 1883 and 1923, with the likes of an untitled Beth Dutton and Rip Wheeler-centered series in the works alongside The Madison, which will star Michelle Pfeiffer as the matriarch of the McIntosh family. Originally from New York City, they have left the big city behind to live in the Madison River valley of central Montana.
