Are you looking for a new show to fill that Yellowstone-shaped hole in your streaming schedule? If so, The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys might just be for you.
Now streaming on Peacock (and airing Mondays at 11:00 p.m. ET on USA Network), the new 10-episode reality series explores the high-stakes world of ranching in rural Missouri and what it takes to be a real American cowboy. Per Peacock, the show “follows patriarch Steve McBee, the hard-working founder of the family business, and his four sons: Steven Jr. the business-minded heir apparent, Cole the underdog who works hard in the field, Jesse the quiet cowboy, and Brayden who has the least interest in farming.”
What about our old pal Yellowstone? Glad you asked! Here’s everything we know about the Yellowstone Season 5 return date.
There’s no new episode of Yellowstone tonight. If you find your way to Paramount Network you’ll find a Bar Rescue marathon.
The plan is for the second half of Season 5 to premiere in November 2024 on Paramount Network. Two new spinoffs — currently titled 1944 and 2024 — are also in the works.
No plot details for 1944 or 2024 were announced, but Variety reports that 2024 is expected to begin airing following the conclusion of Yellowstone, with the show featuring “new cast members and locations with some crossover characters as well.” This is the series that could potentially include Matthew McConaughey, who’s been rumored to star in a Yellowstone spinoff since April 2023.
Production on the final episodes of the fifth and final season will reportedly begin in late spring 2024, but Costner’s level of involvement in the remaining installments is still unclear. The actor revealed in a September court trial that he was initially offered $24 million to do Seasons 5, 6, and 7 of Yellowstone but there were “issues with creative.”
Per Deadline, another source of contention centered around the star’s shooting schedule. Costner reportedly wanted more time to spend on his upcoming multi-part Western movie Horizon: An American Saga, a film in which he starred, directed, co-wrote, and produced.
The situation remains in flux — Costner said in September that he’ll “probably go to court” over his Yellowstone exit — so it’s safe to say that he almost certainly won’t be involved in future spinoffs.
Yellowstone isn’t currently streaming on Netflix in the United States, but all five seasons are on Peacock Premium. Individual episodes and complete seasons are also available to purchase on Amazon.
Part 1 is scheduled to hit theaters on June 28, with Part 2 debuting on August 16.
