Everything you need to know about 'Yellowstone' Season 5 Part 2: How to watch, premiere date and more

Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone finally returns next month after a nearly two-year-long hiatus. On Sunday, Nov. 10 the Dutton family saga continues with the final stretch of episodes for Season 5, which is sadly set to be the series' last. The good news? New episodes will be airing across both Paramount Network and CBS, making it easier for fans without cable to tune in every Sunday. The not-so-good news? While Kevin Costner is shown briefly in the Season 5, Part 2 trailer, it has been confirmed by Costner himself that John Dutton will not be featured in the series' final episodes.

But just because John may be missing from the screen doesn't mean fans can't enjoy the return of Beth and Jamie Dutton, Rip Wheeler and more of The Dutton Ranch's usual suspects. And ahead of the Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2 premiere, you may want a refresher on where we last left the Duttons — almost two years ago. So why not rewatch the hit Paramount series from the start, as in, way back in 1883… here's a refresher on how (and where) to watch Yellowstone in the right order, plus everything you need to know about the second half of Yellowstone Season 5.

When does Yellowstone come back?

Yellowstone timeline explained

While the hit show Yellowstone may have come out first, the Dutton family tree goes back much further than the Paramount show's premiere. The series has two prequel stories out now, 1883 and 1923.

There are also reportedly several more Yellowstone sequels in the works, including The Madison and 6666 (currently on hold). With the original series coming to a close this November, here's a quick refresher on where (and in what order) to watch Yellowstone and its subsequent spinoffs.

1883

Starring Sam Elliott, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, this Yellowstone prequel series follows members of the Dutton family as they travel west across the Great Plains towards Montana. All eight episodes of this limited series are currently streaming on Paramount+.

1923

In 1923, a new generation of Duttons struggled to maintain control of their ranch amidst the early stages of the Great Depression and under the pressure of Prohibition. Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren star in this Yellowstone prequel. Season 1 is now streaming on Paramount+, and the series has already been renewed for Season 2.

Yellowstone

Yellowstone follows the modern-day Dutton family, owners of the largest ranch in Montana, as they deal with family drama, land disputes and tension with the neighboring Indian Reservation. Kevin Costner, Luke Grimes, Wes Bentley and Kelly Reilly star in the western drama. Yellowstone seasons 1–4 are currently available to stream on Peacock.

What other Yellowstone spinoffs are coming out?

On top of 1883 and 1923, there are also modern spinoffs The Madison (formerly titled 2024) 6666 in the works, as well as two more limited series featuring Dutton ancestors from the 1940s and 1960s set to be released in the future.
