Already he is mixing fact with supposition and it is a sight to see. The cast in the first episode is lead by three actors who have all earned an will likely deliver a career masterpiece. Barry Pepper in particular, he really has had a long and storied career. It’s just excellent casting to put him up against Oyelowo and to put Oyelowo up with Wigham earlier. I imagine the series follows Oyelowo as he tracks Pepper given the circumstances of the opener, but it’s a weekly 8-parter so it has plenty of hours left to go. I’m watching episode 2 tonight, if it isn’t spectacular I will be surprised. Taylor Sheridan is an industry on his own.

Saw the trailer after finishing 1883.

Yellowstone has been a bit of a slog, honestly. We've not even finished the 1st season. It's okay, it just isn't the same. This looks promising, however.
