If you could pick one character to have written off the show (and it can NOT be Wokeahontas or Tate because that’s too easy) who would it be?

If I had to pick one I'd say Travis (Taylor Sheridan).  I get that Jimmy is a screw up, but Travis verbally abusing him just got plain dumb quickly and wasted screen time.  His character is an arrogant asshole and they had already exceeded the quota for those for one series

Taylor Sheridan can be a great writer when a project has his undivided attention.

S4 of Yellowstone is what you get when he's dividing himself across half a dozen different projects.

Hit the nail on the head, his career has blown up big time in the last couple years.  Didn't know he bought the 6666 ranch in Texas. I'm sure he can afford it.

I grew up ranching like him.  The first thing I would do if I made it rich would be to buy a ranch.

I think S4 is decent so far.  The new spinoff with woke Tim McGraw and his wife looks good.  

I can't, however, get into Mayor of Kingstown.  Sheridan stepped out of his niche and, frankly, it's pretty mediocre.

Doubt he owns 10% of it.  He's the face of the investor group that bought it, but it was over $300 million.  That's more Cameron or Spielberg money than Sheridan.

The best indicator for how good a show is would be judging how often you fast forward or are tempted to fast forward a scene.

In S1 it was pretty much 0% for me.

For this most recent episode it was over half of it.

Dutton is a big fish in a little pond.  He is most certainly not “one of the most powerful men in the West.”

Also in terms of power, wealth, and fame Dutton is about as much like Trump as the starting QB of a big name Texas high school is like Tom Brady.

If he owns 750K acres in the West, I'd suggest he is a big fish in most any pond.  

Big as "Rhode Island" was the original reference to the King Ranch.   But, they copied it for this show.  RI is roughly 775K acres.  

At 2k an acre, thats 1.5 billion.  At 5k an acre, thats 3.75 billion.  Plus improvements.   20K cattle at a $1,000 a head would be a quick 20 million, and they would have another 500 horses or so.  Real quick, you are talking some sizable wealth.  

About $5.5 billion puts you into the top 200 in this nation.   Give or take.

Beth has turned into a caricature of what Beth was earlier in the series.

Come to think of it, many of the characters have done the same.

The term we were looking for is Flanderization.

The act of taking a single (often minor) action or trait of a character within a work and exaggerating it more and more over time until it completely consumes the character. Most always, the trait/action becomes completely outlandish and it becomes their defining characteristic. Sitcoms and sitcom characters are particularly susceptible to this, as are peripheral characters in shows with long runs.

Is the show about a huge ranch or is it about rodeoing?  Because if I only watched this season, I'd think it was about rodeo stuff.  They have resorted to using that stuff to help fill an hour time slot when they don't have enough script written.   They hit their peak and are either struggling or are too distracted with all the spin offs.

No.  Jaime claimed to have added 200K acres during his "running" of the ranch.  Claimed he added that to their prior holdings.   And, they also have a land trust - majority ownership, minority interest held by Beth's old/now new employer - to even more land that Beth set up.

The 10K acre deal (I thought it was more) was for the sale of part of the ranch for development.  Not the whole ranch.  And, that offer was for $500 million, as I recall, for just that piece.   If it was $500 million for only 10k acres, thats $50K an acre.

It was either $10k for an acre for 50k acres or $50k an acre for 10k acres (probably the former).  Either way, it wasn't even in the ballpark of 750k acres.

I watched S3 last week and I'm pretty sure the deal was for the whole ranch.  That's the way everyone presented it as including the way Beth presented the deal to John.  If it was only for part of the ranch I'm sure she would have mentioned that to John instead of "selling THE ranch."

Beth told John that they'd take that part of the ranch with eminent domain (and Jamie couldn't protect them), then with property values going up in the coming years he'd have to sell off more of the ranch in smaller parcels until all he had left was the lodge. The original deal was just for the airport area, as shown in the pic a couple replies up.

That's why John is getting into the horses, because he needs a new income stream.

The offer last season was $500 million for 50,000 acres, and it was only a fraction of the land.

They have a personal helicopter and a private chef.  He's a multibillionaire, but not very liquid.

Most Ranchers are land rich, money poor.  The one thing that has helped change that is oil and other energy leases on land with mineral rights.  Water rights are becoming very valuable also.

Season 4 is ruining the show. Nothing of consequence has happened in the past 3 episodes.

Instead of fighting enemies and developers they decide to invest millions in horse spinning?

6 different plot lines that rotate every 3 minutes.

No more boobs? I want a refund.

IF he did, sure.

But he doesn’t.  The offer last season had it at 10k acres.

That was one pasture for the airport.

There's highlighting, then there's too much. Showing how studly the cowboys are while skidding their horses to a stop over and over is too much and seems to be nothing but filler.

Agreed. Too much time spent showing horses skid to a stop.

Because we shouldn't highlight people in a sport relevant to the show we're making...

Reiners are not seen as “studly” in the cowboy world. It appeals to the horse chick demo.

Beth told John that they'd take that part of the ranch with eminent domain (and Jamie couldn't protect them), then with property values going up in the coming years he'd have to sell off more of the ranch in smaller parcels until all he had left was the lodge. The original deal was just for the airport area, as shown in the pic a couple replies up.

That's why John is getting into the horses, because he needs a new income stream.

I watched S3 last week and I'm pretty sure the deal was for the whole ranch.  That's the way everyone presented it as including the way Beth presented the deal to John.  If it was only for part of the ranch I'm sure she would have mentioned that to John instead of "selling THE ranch."

I’m not judging the show, but that’s not how ag zoning works. I own commercial property and ag property. Ag always gets an exemption.

Nailed it. And I promise, there isn't one locally grown rancher in the West that is going to bail a lefty out to compromise with her or bang her.
Dumb.

Yellowstone use to be a very good drama.

Now it’s pretty much a “turn off the your brain and binge watch it so you don’t have time to think about how little sense it makes” type of show.

I dunno.  I’m sure there’s at least one or two that have a “hate fuck a hot libtard” fantasy.

Go ahead and turn it off.

There are too many more plots and storylines to come for the show to last at least 10 years or more.

S4 E5 was a sleeper, yawn.

I expect more action soon, which is what I like about this show.
