Fortunately for Taylor Sheridan, “Yellowstone” has since gone on to receive much better reviews. While the critical consensus on Rotten Tomatoes for Season 1 was a meager 57%, it has achieved 84% or better with each subsequent season and even scored itself a perfect 100% for its third season.
Still, Sheridan had more to say about the way critics responded to his megahit neo-western and its polarizing first season. “It’s not surprising that critics hate it because it’s designed for them to hate,” he explained. “[Critics were] confounded by its success. The New York Times have done multiple, multiple articles where they’re doing this essay on ‘Why is this sh** so popular?'” he recalled.
Now, as “Yellowstone” enters the twilight era of its run, with the show expected to conclude with Season 5, Part 2, it has never been bigger. Despite the challenges that the Paramount Network series has had to face over the last year, most notably with its star, Kevin Costner, fans can likely expect to see the show return by the end of 2024. Meanwhile, for those viewers who are craving more, there are at least two further spin-offs currently in development in addition to a planned second season for “1923”.
