☆ ‘Yellowstone,’ TV’s Hit Western, Will End Its Run After This Season
▼ + stars: | 2023-05-05 | by ( Marc Tracy | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

The current season of “Yellowstone,” the Western starring Kevin Costner that became one of the most popular shows on television, will be its last, Paramount announced Friday. The series, which airs on the Paramount Network, will be followed by a new “Yellowstone” sequel — created, like the original, by Taylor Sheridan — that will start in December, Paramount said. The sequel will air on the Paramount Network, a cable channel, and later on the Paramount+ streaming platform. Its Season 4 finale was the most-watched scripted program in 2022, Variety reported, with more than 13 million viewers. And the Season 5 premiere last November exceeded that with more than 17 million viewers, according to Paramount.

CNN —Kevin Costner and his wife of over 18 years Christine Baumgartner have announced they are going their separate ways. The pair initially met on a golf course, and years later reconnected at a restaurant opening. Costner and Baumgartner share three children, and Costner also has four other children from previous relationships, including with his first wife Cindy Silva, to whom he was married from 1978 to 1994. In February, one month after Costner won a Golden Globe for his performance on “Yellowstone,” he made reference to his wife on social media, who helped celebrate his achievement when they were unable to attend the awards event due to flooding near their home. “We watched from home and it wasn’t the same,” Costner said in a video as he recounted what it was like to watch the show remotely.

☆ Actor Tom Sizemore, known for tough-guy roles and scandal, dead at 61
▼ + stars: | 2023-03-04 | by ( Steve Gorman | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +5 min

March 3 (Reuters) - Actor Tom Sizemore, known as much for his struggles with drug addiction and run-ins with the law as for his tough-guy roles in such films as "Saving Private Ryan" and "Black Hawk Down," died on Friday at age 61, said his manager, Charles Lago. Sizemore's first major leading role came in the 1997 horror thriller "The Relic," again playing a police detective. On television, Sizemore won plaudits for his starring role as a police detective in the short-lived CBS television drama "Robbery Homicide Division." He was arrested again on suspicion of domestic abuse in 2016 and the following year pleaded no contest, the legal equivalent of guilty in California, and was sentenced to three year's probation. Sizemore chronicled his turbulent life in the 2013 memoir, "By Some Miracle I Made It Out of There."

You don't have to watch "Yellowstone" to see and enjoy its new prequel "1923." But you do need two streaming services to watch both. "1923" is streaming on Paramount+, while past episodes of "Yellowstone" are on Peacock. The new series, "1923," follows a new generation of Duttons, the ranching family portrayed in Taylor Sheridan's smash hit "Yellowstone." The series was good enough and easy enough to watch without having seen "Yellowstone" that I am now watching "1923."

It’s a grimmer chapter of an ongoing story, and one that is plagued by an inability to articulate why these white men murdering their way across the landscape are heroes worth rooting for. Cultural critics love prestige series. Few celebrated the end of the toxically misogynist “The Big Bang Theory,” or have seemed eager to discuss the resurgence of seemingly endless police procedurals starring white men. But the series has gained viewership year over year, with subsequent spinoffs debuting on new flagship streaming service, Paramount+. Like so many white male grievances, to question the logic is to side with the enemy.

CNN —Fans of the TV blockbuster “Yellowstone” are in for a treat after Paramount + released a preview of the upcoming prequel “1923” – starring Harrison Ford and Oscar-winner Helen Mirren. The much-anticipated “1923” follows on the success of another “Yellowstone” spinoff – “1883” – which stars real-life spouses Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, along with Sam Elliott. It tells the story of how the family came to own Yellowstone ranch. Speaking with an Irish accent, Mirren, 77 – who won an Academy Award in 2006 for her role in “The Queen” – looks set to be a formidable opponent for those trying to take over her family’s land. In one scene in the trailer, she warns: “Men kill quick with a bullet or a noose.

“Yellowstone” was built around the star wattage of Kevin Costner. It’s the character Beth Dutton who lights up the show’s massive fan base the most. Played by Kelly Reilly , Beth is the daughter of Mr. Costner’s powerful Montana rancher John Dutton. She is a human switchblade who favors straight liquor, cigarettes and eviscerating people with the saltiest language on basic cable. In a sometimes violent TV drama full of tough cowboys, the woman who refuses to ride a horse is the fiercest.

CNN —“Yellowstone” is one of those mysteries of the TV business, a series that generates major ratings but like the late comic Rodney Dangerfield, doesn’t always get much respect. Yet the new season of the Paramount Network series nevertheless reaches for what feels like a bit more relevance by making a sharper turn into politics, to go with all of the soapy doings around John Dutton, the character played by Kevin Costner, and his sprawling ranch. Granted, Montana politics has been a part of the series since the beginning. The new season of “Yellowstone” might even get a few more people talking about it. “Yellowstone” premieres its fifth season November 13 at 8 p.m.

"Yellowstone" creator Taylor Sheridan pushed back against the notion it's a right-leaning series. It's not the first time he's contested that "Yellowstone" is a conservative TV show. "They refer to it as 'the conservative show' or 'the Republican show' or 'the red-state Game of Thrones,' " Sheridan said in an Atlantic profile published on Thursday. A New York Times opinion piece in August referred to the show as "a conservative fantasy liberals should watch." "People perceive all my stuff as red state, and it's the most ridiculous thing," he told The New York Times.
