Just finished binge watching Yellowstone. DAMN. *Potential spoilers*

It’s as horrifyingly compelling as any character drama I e ever seen. One word…Beth. 😳

And Jamie. 😬

And Jimmy. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

And Rip. 😍

Seriously, anyone else as delighted and utterly horrified as I am? Anyone else got an unreasonable fear of Welcome to Wyoming signs?

You have to have a tolerance for sex and violence because there’s plenty, but it’s in the service of quite a complicated story line. Cowboys and Indians meets Shakespearean royalty drama.

And gorgeous countryside.

The first 3 seasons were excellent.

Season 4 had a lot of lazy writing and ridiculous storylines. As for Beth, she not only turned into a full blown psychopath, she turned into a campy caricature.

Season 4 was such a turn off. I doubt I’ll have any interest in season 5.

Yeah, Beth’s a therapist’s nightmare. But Jimmys development made me cheer, and I like the women being in the power dynamic. You have to suspend some disbelief but I’ll give them that.

I kept wondering what’s going to happen with the two adolescent boys who somehow have never met.

The kid brought in from a tragic loss of parents vs the heir.

This whole show is about fathers and sons though. Even Beth.
