Where to watch Yellowstone season 5 (and the season premiere for free)

Yellowstone is a hugely popular show that looks at the conflicts between a large cattle ranch, a Native American reservation, and greedy land developers. The show stars Kevin Costner as John Dutton, the gruff but likable patriarch of a cattle dynasty who tries to fend off competitors and rein in his unruly family. Luke Grimes, Kelly Reilly, and Wes Bentley star as Dutton’s children, who have their own set of troubles.

With a fantastic cast and storylines that mix soap opera and red-state social commentary, Yellowstone follows the melodramatics of the Dutton family as well as the conflicts between warring landowners in Big Sky country. The show, created by Taylor Sheridan and John Linson, has streamed four seasons so far and its massive success shows no signs of stopping.

If you crave Dallas-style drama mixed with lots of cattle, guns, and plaid shirts, then Yellowstone is for you. The show is a huge streaming hit, and has already spawned a multiverse of sorts, with 1883 airing a year ago and another prequel, 1923, is now streaming its first episode with Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren in the lead roles.

Don’t take our word for it, though. Yellowstone currently has an 83% on the Tomatometer and a 57 on Metacritic.

What is Paramount Plus? Price, plans, and what you can watch

With the huge range of streaming services now available, it's easy to lose track of which service has the content you want to watch. And that's made more confusing by the habit companies have of renaming and rebranding their services every few years.

Like Paramount Plus, which used to be CBS All Access but then added content from Showtime as well -- which included shows like Dexter, Yellowjackets, and Billions. The service is from the parent company ViacomCBS, and it's no longer a U.S.-only exclusive. Now the service is available internationally, in places like Canada, Australia, Brazil, and Europe as well as the U.S. And while there is plenty of new content coming to Paramount Plus regularly, you could be forgiven for wondering what this streaming service is and whether you need it.
