I'll finish this season out, but I don't know if I'll continue with any further seasons unless it changes course.
My thoughts too, but I've been saying that since Season 1. It's the opposite of Deadwood, except for the cussing, which is pretty much the same in both. Deadwood was a great show, great story, great characters, but the scenery was a continuous muddy mess. Just the beauty of the scenery in Yellowstone is a big reason why I stay interested. I like the extended rodeo, and cowboy stuff, and they work in emerging musicians too. The story and characters are mostly a train wreck though.

Agree. This season, so far, and last have not been as good. Maybe Sheridan is spread too thin with all his other projects.

Loved Deadwood, but yeah, it's like it was filmed in a giant hog pen.

No, we absolutely don't. I like the show but several angles, including that one, are annoying to me. Vilifying the native americans is another one that bothers me but it's a show so whatever.
Well this is off subject but why does that bother you? Native Americans were murderous rapists just like the people that conquered them. They did the same thing to each other in wars. The Comanche were some of the most savage mfers to ever live. Just please don’t say Indian good, White man bad, that would be super lame and misinformed.

So don’t ask me to stererotype while you stereotype. That‘s about typical these days. I just never like the idea of making them a caricature of themselves.

Everything in entertainment is a caricature for the most part. It's just entertainment, relax, just like this board. And I'm not stereotyping, I'm providing facts. I've read and studied pretty decently about US History and the battles between Indian Tribes amongst themselves and American settlers.

Believe me, I could care less. You stereotype but say don’t stereotype much like the majority of the world right now. Just cause you took history in college and had a history teacher feed you a bunch of **** doesn’t make it accurate. I took Native American history and learned not just facts like they didn’t rape and pillage, but why they didn’t. Their beliefs didn’t allow for rape even in war. So keep telling yourself what you want to believe but it isn’t accurate. Regardless, good show. Fun to watch. Will keep watching it. Done.

Wait so are you telling me those aren't real tears being shed over pollution? I feel so lied to.

Go read empire of the summer moon and tell me they didn’t rape and pillage. Jfc. Christian beliefs don’t allow for it either doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen man.

I’ve read history since I was a kid and subscribed to military history magazine from 13-25. Have a degree, *** laude, in History from UK, thanks though.

I guess you think Indians just walked around with flowers in their hair sharing buffalo hides and smoking peace pipes, wouldn't hurt a fly I bet.

Don’t get me wrong I’d rather live like them than we do now but not really an option anymore.

And glad you “could care less”, hence you do care. Learn words.

As if the annoying Beth and Monica weren't enough, now we get a lot of Summer.
Has any show had more annoying women in it?
Do like Clara though.
Might be my age showing but there is a lot more cussing in it this season- particularly from the women. Maybe for shock value?

I’m not a prude and cuss some but try not to around women and the women in my life don’t.

Could swear I heard Beth use the MF in a casual conversation with her husband. Also all of them cussing with kids(teens) at one dinner table scene kinda got to me.

This season is going down hill fast. Thought for sure we would have a better season this time. If this is what we are watching I'd rather they start it Father's Day weekend like it was so we have something on to get us to football season. The show is good but not much happening.

I tried to say nah these guys are just wanting violence and rodeo stuff it’s still alright. But after last nights episode I was thinking why am I watching my this again? Obligation?

Monica is awful.
The hippy is awful.
Beth is awesome in doses, but they spent ten minutes watching her and rip look at a meadow and say I love you while Beth smoked and drank. There was literally ZERO content in that scene that did anything story-wise.

Hate to tell you but people familiar with one another use MFer in casual conversations now not super rare anymore.

Beth is a scene and show killer. Nothing she does adds value. Show would be much better without her.

Would you not expect cowboys to basically cuss nonstop? I would think that would be assumed. Just like mafiaso in the Sopranos or urban gangsters in The Wire or a bunch of settlers and gold prospectors in Deadwood.

Depends on your age range and where you live. 40-ish and below are sailors around friends. Dated a gal that grew up in private Christian schools down by Clearwater when I lived down there and she said eff more than me.

Girl I’m kind of dating that lives in Chicago now when I’m teasing her or busting her chops will be jokingly like “listen here mfer.” And no I don’t date trash lol it’s just way more common now. If you live in Sadieville yeah you probably don’t hear it that much.

I guess Beth telling Rip she was gonna blow him didn't bother you.
Yes, you are a "prude". You are gonna go to hell for watching this show....😁

I think they are trying to eliminate the "toxic masculinity" of a cowboy show by having all of these strong dominant women. If they take it much further Beth will strap a 12 inch one on and make ole Rip earn his name while calling him a mf'er.
