EXCLUSIVE
It doesn’t look like “Yellowstone” will end next week. I’ve confirmed that Season 6 is in negotiations. The show will return.
This was tipped during last night’s episode during the trailer for the finale. The so called final episode is dubbed the “season finale,” not the end of the series.
“Yellowstone” was tipped to end by everyone because the whole Kevin Costner issue. His character, John Dutton, has been killed off after the actor went to war with show creator Taylor Sheridan.
The plot of the last couple of episodes was that the Duttons had to sell their ranch, and they would be moving on.
But at the last minute last night, Kayce figured out how to save the ranch from financial ruin. Life will go on. New characters will come.
In a rather boring episode, Kevin Costner’s John Dutton is kind of swept away. Next week he gets a funeral. And then he will be forgotten. Meantime, fans complained on line during tonight’s show that a good 15 minutes was wasted showcasing Taylor Sheridan, the series creator, as a rodeo guy. It was pointless.
Almost nothing happened in this episode tonight, but the path is clear. 101 Productions and Paramount aren’t going to throw it all away, after all.
Will Matthew McConaughey ride into town? Or someone else? Most of the characters will return although Wes Bentley’s Jamie will probably get the hook.
A big snore but stay tuned…
