“Yellowstone,” a popular TV show, has captivated the hearts of many viewers worldwide since its inception in 2018. Known for its riveting drama, picturesque views of Montana, and a captivating storyline, it has continued to evolve over the years. The show initially starred Kevin Costner, but now boasts a stellar cast of celebrities such as Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer, who have joined the “Yellowstone” universe. With each new spin-off, including the recently announced “The Madison,” the franchise becomes more intriguing.
As we anticipate the final episodes of the main show, let’s take a moment to reflect on the franchise. If you’re considering rewatching the series before the final season or you’re curious about what makes it so popular, here’s the ultimate guide to immersing yourself in the drama and excitement of “Yellowstone.”
Watching the Yellowstone series in release order

One straightforward way to enjoy Taylor Sheridan’s “Yellowstone” is by watching it in the order it was released:
- Yellowstone (2018)
- 1883 (2021)
- 1923 (2022)
Following this, you would watch the announced spin-offs “1944,” “The Madison,” and “6666” as they are released. “The Madison” is a sequel series to “Yellowstone” and is expected to feature at least one returning character. Although each series is independent, there’s a web of connections that make the viewing experience more interesting. Watching them in the order of release allows you to explore the expansive world of the Yellowstone Ranch and the dramatic history of the Dutton family as it was conceived. You’ll be able to trace the storyline’s evolution in real time.
It’s worth noting that the spin-offs are not to be missed. For instance, “1883” is considered one of the three best seasons in the entire “Yellowstone” franchise.
Chronological order: The ideal way to watch Yellowstone

Another effective approach to experiencing “Yellowstone” is by watching it in the chronological order of the shows’ settings:
- “1883” (2021)
- “1923” (2022)
- “1944” (once it’s released)
- “Yellowstone” (2018)
- “The Madison” (after the end of “Yellowstone”)
- “6666” (once it’s released)
Starting with “1883” gives you a deeper understanding of the West’s history and the conflicts that shaped the Dutton family’s present. Despite some inconsistencies due to the prequels being produced after the first few “Yellowstone” seasons, you’ll gain insights into the family’s long history. By the time you get to “Yellowstone,” each action carries the weight of over a century’s worth of history.
Moreover, as “Yellowstone” is still airing, why rush to start now and extend your waiting period? You can begin with the prequels and gradually move to the flagship show. By the time you’re up-to-date, the wait for part 2 will be significantly shorter. The second half of the final season of “Yellowstone” is set to premiere on November 10, 2024.
