Yellowstone Recap: Cattle Country


With the timeline jumping around for no apparent reason, it feels like Taylor Sheridan is struggling to fill space.

When the episode abruptly jumps to the present, Rip is back at the ranch in Montana, chatting with Lloyd about their hopes to carefully hunt down and punish John’s murderers. We’re supposed to be moved in this moment, because we can see how much this Portland-brained, liberal vegan, radical feminist activist has come to shift her way of thinking as a result of the heroic main character. In my ideal version of this story, Beth would get some comeuppance for the evil she’s done, too — as much as Jamie sucks, generally speaking, his constant meekness makes you want him to fight back, and I’d like to see him become more active in this battle instead of just doing whatever Sarah says while whimpering around his office.
