“Yellowstone,” which airs the fifth episode of its fourth season on Sunday, Nov. 28, has become a colossal hit for Paramount Network.
Since last year, it has gone from a moderate hit to the most-watched cable drama in a long time. The Season 4 premiere attracted over 10 million viewers, more than doubling its viewership since last year. Not since “The Walking Dead” or “Game of Thrones” has there been a drama with this much runaway success.
“Yellowstone” has a sizable lineup of stars, including Kevin Costner, Wes Bentley, Kelly Reilly, Luke Grimes, Cole Hauser and Gil Birmingham. Jacki Weaver, who also appears in the new season of the series, caused a stir earlier in the season after being widely mistaken for Sally Struthers.
The series follows the Dutton family as they face off against different factions encroaching on their land.
Paramount Network, though, is not a widely known TV network and not everyone has it as part of a cable package, leaving some fans confused about how to watch Season 4. Plus, as more people switch to cord-cutting and streaming services, it can be difficult to find online. (It’s actually not on Paramount Plus, despite the name.)
