The Dutton family drama is back in full swing, even as the absence of John Dutton (Kevin Costner) looms large over the narrative. Fans of Yellowstone are tuning in weekly to watch the intense, action-packed episodes unfold in the second half of Season 5, which airs Sundays at 8 p.m. EST/PST on Paramount Network. But how can you watch it live, stream it on demand, or satisfy your cravings between episodes? Here’s everything you need to know.
When and Where to Watch New Episodes of Yellowstone Season 5
The latest episodes of Yellowstone Season 5 air on the Paramount Network every Sunday at 8 p.m. EST/PST. However, if you miss the live broadcast or want to watch it later, you’ll need a cable login to stream the episodes on the Paramount Network’s website or app.
Unfortunately, the series is not available on Paramount+, which is often a source of confusion for fans. Previous seasons are available on Peacock, but new episodes from Season 5 are exclusive to the Paramount Network for now.
If you don’t have cable, you can still watch Yellowstone using live TV streaming services like:
- Philo: Offers a free trial and includes the Paramount Network.
- Sling TV: Paramount Network is part of the “Comedy Extra” package.
- FuboTV: Includes the Paramount Network in its lineup.
- Hulu + Live TV: Another option with Paramount Network access.
How to Stream Episodes for Free
For fans looking to stream the latest episodes without a subscription, there are limited free options. Some platforms, such as Philo and FuboTV, offer free trials that you can use to watch Yellowstone live or on-demand during the trial period. Keep in mind that you’ll need to cancel the trial before it ends to avoid charges.
More Shows to Watch While You Wait for New Episodes
If the weekly wait for new Yellowstone episodes leaves you wanting more drama, family feuds, and stunning landscapes, consider these alternatives:
1. Territory (Netflix)
Dubbed the “Australian version of Yellowstone,” this series takes the drama of a family-owned ranch and sets it against the rugged beauty of the Australian Outback. Starring Anna Torv (Mindhunter, Fringe), Territory offers a fresh take on themes of power, land ownership, and familial strife.
2. Taylor Sheridan’s Expanding Universe (Paramount+)
