The TVI Take
The first season of Yellowstone — the Dutton family's ranch conflict with developers and the Broken Rock Reservation. Well-crafted neo-Western that establishes the characters and conflicts effectively.
Kevin Costner's performance anchors the season. Educational about land rights and Native American treaty law in a simplified form.
