Paramount Network brought it’s hit Yellowstone series to a close on Sunday, which left its legions of fans
largely divided.
Last week’s episode ended with Kayce Dutton (Luke Grimes) teasing that he was going to save the ranch
by giving it away.
As expected, he basically gave the ranch away to it’s rightful owners – the Broken Rock Indians, selling it for the price of land back in 1883 when John Dutton’s ancestors first took the land – $1.25 an acre, just $1.1 million for the largest ranch in Montana.
Beth (Kelly Reilly) also kept her promise and killed her brother Jamie Dutton (Wes Bentley), seemingly the last person to be dropped off at the show’s proverbial ‘train station.’
Beth and Rip (Cole Hauser) also bought a brand new ranch, while Kayce, Monica (Kelsey Asbille) and Tate (Brecken Merrill) kept the East Camp part of the sprawling ranch, with the rest going back to the reservation.
While all of the main story lines were wrapped up, many showed love to the finale on social media while others bashed it, some even claiming it to be worse than Game of Thrones’ final season.
@JustinRaley_15 said, ‘It is official. Game of Thrones is no longer the worst final season of any tv show ever. Yellowstone has taken that award. What a disaster of a final season. #Yellowstone #YellowstoneTV.’
Michael Vitale (@RealVampireMike) simply said on Twitter, ‘Dumb ending #yellowstone #yellowstonetv.
@njramen wondered, ‘? hm, after that finale, i wonder what the premise of the next season/beth and rip’s spinoff will be. i guess we’ll see.’
Last week, Paramount gave the green light for a new spin-off featuring Rip and Beth,’ which will seemingly follow their life on this new ranch they bought.
