Paramount Network Announces Yellowstone Marathon: A Perfect Fill for Your Ranch-Sized Void
“Yellowstone” fans, get ready for a weekend of binge-watching bliss. With the series’ fifth season currently on a mid-season break and the future of the show in flux, Paramount Network is stepping in to offer some much-needed comfort. As the show’s saga continues to unravel, especially with the intense conflict between Beth (Kelly Reilly) and Jamie (Wes Bentley), viewers are left hanging. Adding to the suspense, recent reports reveal that Kevin Costner, who stars as family patriarch John Dutton, plans to cut back on his filming time. This has led to speculation about the show’s future, with Season 5 set to conclude the series later this year, and a new sequel series is already in the works.
To bridge the gap until the show’s return, Paramount Network is treating fans to a comprehensive “Yellowstone” marathon. Starting on Friday, July 4th at 8 p.m. ET/PT, the network will air all five seasons of the hit drama. The marathon will showcase the tumultuous lives of the Dutton family and their Yellowstone Ranch staff, where intrigue, power struggles, and dramatic twists are a constant.
The marathon will continue throughout the weekend, beginning again at 11 a.m. ET/PT on Saturday and Sunday, and wrapping up at 12 p.m. ET/PT on Monday and Tuesday. This extended viewing event is designed to satiate fans’ cravings for drama and remind them why “Yellowstone” has captured hearts worldwide.
Paramount Network President Chris McCarthy expressed excitement about the marathon, noting, “‘Yellowstone’ was the foundation on which we created a series of global hits, from ‘1883’ to ‘Tulsa King.’ I believe the ‘Yellowstone’ sequel will be another huge success, thanks to the brilliant creative mind of Taylor Sheridan and our incredible cast who brought these shows to life.”
The end of “Yellowstone,” as we know it, will come with the second half of Season 5, scheduled to return in November. Following the conclusion, a new series set in the “Yellowstone” universe will premiere, continuing the legacy of Taylor Sheridan’s expansive storytelling, albeit without Costner’s involvement.
While the transition might be bittersweet for fans, this marathon offers a chance to revisit the dramatic highs and lows of the Dutton family’s journey. So, gather your friends, stock up on snacks, and settle in for a weekend full of ranch drama, as Paramount Network brings the world of “Yellowstone” right into your living room.
In the meantime, keep an eye out for more updates on the future of the series and the new sequel. For now, enjoy the epic ride of all five seasons and prepare for the thrilling conclusion to the Dutton family saga.
