When it comes to the film industry, there is no shortage of ‘nepo baby,’ short for nepotism kids who have found a place in the industry thanks to their famous parents, relatives, or friends. Over the years, several actors, directors, and more have been labeled as such by fans, having their ‘nepo baby’ tag overshadowing their work and talent.

Even Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone featured one such actress that many do not know is a nepo baby: Jennifer Landon. Portraying the role of Teeter, Landon actually comes from a family who have had deep ties with the world of entertainment.

Though Taylor Sheridan was an unheard-of name back in the day, the writer and director has swiftly made his way into the mainstream with intriguing shows like Yellowstone and Tulsa King. Today, Paramount Studios proudly boasts his work on their platform, even giving him a multi-million dollar deal to churn out similar content in the next few years as well.

However, fans cannot help but feel Sheridan dropped the ball when it came to the later episodes of Yellowstone. As if once the show blew up, the writer-director stopped paying attention to the minute details that helped the show gain a wide fanbase in the first place.

Fans have a bone to pick with Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone

In 2018, the audiences were introduced to the Duttons for the first time in a Western-vibe ranch. The...

When Taylor Sheridan dared to venture off the Dutton ranch with a brand new "Yellowstone" spin-off, he did so by focusing on the first journey it took to get there. "1883" was the limited series that saw where the Dutton family tree took root and it just so happened to come with its own train station. Starring Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and Sam Elliott (who originally trashed "Yellowstone") as its core cast, one of the most important names on the list was Isabel May as Elsa Dutton. A voice that hovers throughout not just "1883" but decades later in "Yellowstone," May's performance runs through the entire Dutton timeline. For Sheridan, she was essential to the gritty and unforgiving spin-off that, according to him, simply wouldn't work without her.

Strangely, the meeting between Sheridan and May began away from Dutton land when she auditioned for a role in "Mayor of Kingstown.

Taylor Sheridan knows a thing or two about power moves, but when it comes to billionaires, he’s not falling for the smoke and mirrors show. While the world treats Elon Musk like the ultimate money-printing machine, Sheridan’s calling Bs on the whole “multi-billionaire” label.

To him, it’s all just numbers on a screen, and if things went south, the empire would crumble faster than a Yellowstone feud.

Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan didn’t hold back on The Joe Rogan Experience, calling out the illusion of billionaire wealth. He argued that Elon Musk and other top-tier billionaires aren’t as liquid-rich as people assume. Sheridan said,

Taylor Sheridan does not lack for chutzpah. The Academy Award-nominated screenwriter of "Hell or High Water" kicked his career into overdrive seven years ago when he launched the new-Western sensation "Yellowstone" on the Paramount Network. Since then, he's been a one-man television hit machine with "Yellowstone" spinoffs "1883" and "1923," as well as "Mayor of Kingstown," "Tulsa King," "Lioness" and "Landman." He is not a man to whom you say "no." I mean, you can say it, but you do so at your peril because the project you just shot down will likely wind up being a smash hit for a competitor.

Sheridan was just a year into building his "Yellowstone" empire when, being one of the busier bees in Hollywood, he hired himself out to rewrite the screenplay for an adaptation of Michael Koryta's thriller novel "Those Who Wish Me Dead." The tale of a reclusive smokejumper who finds herself...

Taylor Sheridan has really managed to endear himself to Hollywood, thanks to how his shows have managed to catch the attention of an audience that Hollywood considered completely lost. However, there is a large section of this fandom that is dealing with some dissonance when it comes to the show.

Given all the hype around Yellowstone, there was a section of the fandom that expected the show to follow in the footsteps of prestige TV classics like The Sopranos, Breaking Bad, and Ozark. However, what the fans ended up getting was a soap opera which is nowhere near as complex or deep as fans expected it to be.

Sometimes, life dishes out the harshest of lessons, and for John Dutton III, the hardest one might just be what he has become. The Yellowstone patriarch, once hailed as a rugged man of the land, now stands as a father figure so distant and disjointed that fans are beginning to doubt if he ever really earned that title. John Dutton’s narrative is an unmistakable paradox, and it’s one Taylor Sheridan weaves carefully, but with a wicked twist in his prequels that puts John under an unflattering light.

With stars like Kevin Costner, Yellowstone became one of the most talked-about series in recent memory. But, perhaps surprisingly, the real magic wasn’t in the acclaim or the cattle baron’s power plays. The twist comes with the unveiling of the Dutton legacy, which, when cast against the actions of previous patriarchs, raises a burning question: Did...

Mayor of Kingstown is coming back for Season 4, star and executive producer Jeremy Renner has announced, and it’s already in production, too. The drama, which is part of the Taylor Sheridan universe on Paramount+, is currently shooting on location in Canada, and details about what’s ahead for the gritty crime series are starting to come to light. Here’s a look at everything we know about Mayor of Kingstown Season 4 so far. When will Mayor of Kingstown Season 4 premiere?

Now that Quentin Tarantino is no longer making "The Movie Critic," plans for his final movie are up in there. The "Pulp Fiction" and "Once Upon a Time In Hollywood" director has vowed to retire from filmmaking after helming 10 features, and it seems that he's in a funk because he wants his farewell flick to be perfect. What's more, he's even pondered bowing out with his current oeuvre, believing that "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" is a worthy swansong, especially in the current climate.

During an appearance at the Sundance Film Festival's "Elvis Mitchell Suite" (via Entertainment Weekly), Tarantino clamped down on his reluctance to rush into his final film. He revealed that he's working on a play and feeling disillusioned with the cinematic landscape, which is why filmmaking isn't at the top of his to-do list. In his own words:

Kelsey Asbille essayed the role of a character of Native American descent on Wind River (2017). The actress is said to be of British, Eastern Band Cherokee, and Taiwanese descent. Taylor Sheridan, who was the creator behind Wind River, and also Yellowstone, was committed to casting Native American actors in Native American roles.

However, Sonny Skyhawk, a Native American actor-producer, enquired with the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians tribal nation, only to come up with absolutely no record of Kelsey Asbille as a member of the tribe, even being descended from someone in said, tribe.

It’s been quite a long time since any streaming titles popped the way that Squid Game did with the debut of Season 2.

Nielsen says that the Netflix series racked up more than 4B (4.6B to be exact) viewing minutes for the second consecutive week from December 30 to January 5, which is a feat not accomplished since Wednesday did so in November 2022. While Nielsen doesn’t separate viewing by season, the company did say that 80% of the watch time during this interval went to Season 2.

It’s likely that Squid Game will continue to put up impressive numbers, since according to Netflix the second season was seeing record viewership into January.

Six other titles scored over 1B viewing minutes, including Virgin River with 1.39B, marking its third week in second place since Season 6 premiered on December 19.

Paramount+ seems to have a hit on its hands with Landman, which generated 1.3B minutes viewed during this week,...

Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx’s spy thriller “Back in Action” continues its dominance of the streaming landscape, maintaining its top position for a second consecutive week. After capturing 3.2 million U.S. households during its first weekend streaming, the action-packed film has shown remarkable staying power, demonstrating that audiences aren’t ready to let go of this high-stakes adventure.

Netflix showed its streaming supremacy with an impressive triple threat at the top of the charts, as “The Night Agent” Season 2 and “American Primeval” secured the No. 2 and No. 3 positions respectively.

The Paramount+ release of “Gladiator II” proved its box office success wasn’t a fluke, charging into No. 4, while Taylor Sheridan’s “Landman” was finally unseated from its lock on the top two slots over the last seven weeks to fall into No. 5. The success of “The Night Agent” Season 2 sparked renewed interest in its predecessor, with Season 1 claiming the No.

Exclusive: Clayton Cardenas has joined the cast of Taylor Sheridan’s Mayor of Kingstown in a recurring role for Season 4 from Paramount+.

He will portray ‘Deputy Warden Torres’, the right-hand man to the prison’s new Warden at Anchor Bay Prison.

Mayor of Kingstown follows the McLusky family, power brokers in Kingstown, Michigan, where the business of incarceration is the only thriving industry. Tackling themes of systemic racism, corruption and inequality, the series provides a stark look at their attempt to bring order and justice to a town that has neither.

Jeremy Renner leads the cast in the role of ‘Mike McLusky,’ the titular leader of Kingstown, Michigan. Hugh Dillon, Tobi Bamtefa, Nishi Munshi, Michael Beach, Taylor Handley and Derek Webster also star.

The series is co-created by Oscar nominee Taylor Sheridan and Hugh Dillon and produced by MTV Entertainment Studios, 101 Studios and Bosque Ranch Productions exclusively for Paramount+.

Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone universe has been going strong for the better part of the last decade. However, it isn’t until the prequel saga of the Duttons that the story picks up pace and moves a generation of viewers and critics alike into investing in the heartbreak and tragedy that follows this particular family of ranchers and cowboys.

1923 brings a sense of foreboding and solitary trauma to the story of the Duttons that was seemingly lost in the Machiavellian politics, violence, and rivalry of Yellowstone. In the unadulterated climate of the era it depicts, Sheridan’s 1923 unapologetically displays tragedy and trauma against the stylish backdrop of Montana.

However, amid the blossoming romances and troubles plaguing the Yellowstone Dutton ranch, one dangerous question takes root in the show’s Season 2 storyline.

Yellowstone has always been a show that masterfully blends raw emotion with the complexities of family, heritage, and survival. In the final episodes of Season 5, Taylor Sheridan proves why he is one of the greatest storytellers. Using his abilities, he leaves viewers deeply moved by the stories on-screen.

One particular scene captures the weight of respect and loyalty not only honors the Dutton legacy but also provides a reflection on the relationship between the ranch and its historical stewards. This scene, subtly woven into the intricate narrative, reminds us why Yellowstone continues to captivate its audience despite off-screen challenges.

Movies like Valiant One, a new “American” action thriller from Steve Barnett, who co-wrote the dud with Eric Tipton, can go well beyond frustrating. Sure, the film has good intentions, trying to portray servicemen and women in a positive, albeit grueling, light. Does that mean we must treat the subject matter with such a contrived story?

Yet, even with the action film’s limited budget, time and care for the plot are jettisoned in favor of a political slant we have seen thousands of times before. However, none of that can cover the lousy acting, gaping plot holes, and puzzling character decisions that make you want to pull your hair out. Yet, Hollywood keeps recycling these movies, and we keep gobbling them up.

The show Yellowstone might have ended last year but the conversation surrounding the show has only gotten louder. Fans are spotting errors and interesting tidbits on their rewatch that they missed the first time around. Not only did Yellowstone establish Taylor Sheridan as a household name, but also showed the world what the writer-director is capable of.

Sheridan has crafted a world so unique that it spawned connected universes and a spinoff with many people thinking there’s a thin thread connecting every world in Sheridan’s filmography. On the other hand, there’s something else Sheridan has become quite famous for – using the same actors for various roles.

Texas-born actors Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson reprised their True Detective roles in a video today as they urged the state Legislature to bring more Hollywood productions to the Lone Star State.

The four-minute clip, “True to Texas,” follows McConaughey and Harrelson down a desolate two-way road, and it feels reminiscent of their True Detective personas, Detectives Rust Cohle and Marty Hart, from the franchise’s first season. With Dennis Quaid handcuffed in the back seat, the trio make proposals to create Hollywood films, TV shows, music videos, and commercials on Texas soil.

Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson reunited for a “True Detective”-themed ad written and directed by the show’s creator Nic Pizzolatto. True To Texas encourages the Texan legislature to increase film and TV production in the state through new incentives.

“You ever wonder if this industry of ours is just chasing its own tail?” Harrelson asks at the beginning of the clip. McConaughey then responds with a direct callback to his “True Detective” character Rust Cohle from the first season of the HBO series.

“Hollywood is a flat circle Woody. Round and round like a record with the sound off,” the actor says. “This industry is like somebody’s memory of an industry. The memory is fading. I am talking about a whole new hub for film and television. A renaissance. A rebirth.”

Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson have reunited for a “True Detective” moment in a new ad directed by series creator Nic Pizzolato.

In the video for True to Texas, McConaughey and Harrelson — who embody their “True Detective” characters Detectives Rust Cohle and Marty Hart, respectively — call for the Texas legislature to create new incentives for film and TV productions in the state. The ad also includes appearances by Dennis Quaid, Billy Bob Thornton and Renee Zellweger.

“Hollywood is a flat circle, Wood,” McConaughey says in the video. He later adds, “This industry is like somebody’s memory of an industry, and the memory’s fading. I’m talking about a whole new hub for film and television. A renaissance. A rebirth.”

“A small fraction of Texas budget surplus to turn this state into the new Hollywood,” Harrelson says.

Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson have staged a True Detective reunion in a new ad written and directed by series creator Nic Pizzolatto.

The video (below) for True to Texas urges the Texas legislature to create new incentives for film and TV productions to shoot in the Lone Star State.

Tom Selleck is celebrating a milestone. The Blue Bloods star turns 80 on Jan. 29. But he’s not planning a big bash to mark the occasion. The Emmy-winnning actor recently opened up about his low-key plans for his 80th birthday.

Selleck likes to keep things simple and no-fuss when it comes to birthdays, he said in a recent interview with Parade ahead of the Blue Bloods series finale in December 2024. In fact, he doesn’t really like to celebrate at all.

“I’m trying not to count,” he said. “I stopped celebrating birthdays a while back. I intend to keep working.”

At its core, Dog Man is a warm and funny animated film about fathers and sons. However, the mix of simplistic animation and big gobs of absurdity makes book series so popular. The almost refreshing humor is the way it is tailored to a younger audience, who should be its demographic.

However, while not close to being perfect, Peter Hastings’s Dog Man adaptation of the uber-popular children’s graphic novel series has a lovely third act that hits home, bringing the story—and undoubtedly adults and their children—together.

The silliness and playfulness ring true, enhanced by the strong family messaging.

Sometimes in life, the road we think we’re destined for isn’t always the one that takes us to where we need to be. We all want to be the hero in our own stories, but more often than not, the best chapters come from unexpected detours. Ian Bohen, who’s made a name for himself as the lovable yet gritty cowboy Ryan in Yellowstone knows this firsthand.

If you ask him about the rocky path to the role that solidified his place in Taylor Sheridan’s universe, you’ll hear a story filled with both triumph and the humbling sting of “almost”.

But let’s not sugarcoat it: This isn’t just a story about an actor missing out on a role. No, this is about a passionate journey, a lesson in trusting your instincts, and a good ol’ fashioned reminder that timing is everything.

There’s a saying that goes, “You can’t judge a book by its cover.” Yet, far too often, people look at the outward signs of a person’s beliefs, and, with one quick brushstroke, label an entire group of individuals. But what happens when someone dares to peel back the layers and show the gritty truth beneath?

Taylor Sheridan, the unapologetic Oscar-nominated screenwriter behind Hell or High Water, has boldly taken on this very challenge, all while exposing a silent undercurrent of rural America that often goes unnoticed—or worse, misjudged.

Through his film, Sheridan highlights the real struggles of people in small towns, who face economic hardship and neglect, and who feel their voices are ignored by mainstream elites. He criticizes how pundits like Bill Maher lump entire regions together, assigning political beliefs to people based on assumptions.

I’m unsure what to make of Prime Video’s You’re Cordially Invited. This film has a fantastic pedigree behind it. First, Will Ferrell and Reese Witherspoon are two reliable comedy stars; this is the first film they have starred in together. They share excellent antagonistic chemistry.

Another factor is You’re Cordially Invited’s director, Nicholas Stoller, who has made some of the best comedy movies of this century, including Forgetting Sarah Marshall, the Neighbors franchise of films, and the unfairly underseen (and box office failure) Bros.

However, you have a likable comedy that is too recycled and plays it too safe for its good, never living up to its War of the Roses premise. Albeit, a Saturday Night Live-esque version of such.

This post contains spoilers for "Yellowstone," including season 5.

"Yellowstone" is full of real gut-punch moments. The series kicked off with a shocking death when Lee Dutton met his fate in the premiere episode. That very much set the tone for the show moving forward, which at times felt like a really well-shot soap opera and less like a premium drama. That isn't to knock Taylor Sheridan's hugely-popular neo-Western; "Yellowstone" has managed to maintain its appeal in part due to such shocking developments making the series unmissable — at least for dads. Sam Elliot might have trashed "Yellowstone" as a result of its soapy tendencies, but he also starred in one of its spin-offs, so he can't hate it that much.

This continued right up until the show's fifth season, with season 5 part B opening with the controversial death of Dutton family patriarch John Dutton (Kevin Costner). Perhaps the most contentious...

Taylor Sheridan is the kind of filmmaker who can turn even the simplest scene into a literal masterpiece. One of his best movies is packed with moments so intense they could give a horror flick a run for its money. The attention to detail, folks, is next-level.

But while his big-screen work stole the limelight (and for reasons grand enough), it made us Yellowstone fans wonder if he really stopped caring about the Dutton drama.

As last year wound down, the Disney TV empire — counting broadcasters like ABC, streaming platforms Disney+ and Hulu along with cable channels like FX — managed to stave off YouTube in the race for viewing marketshare in the attention economy.

Disney’s brands saw about 11.2 percent of overall TV viewing in the United States, just ahead of YouTube’s 11.1 percent share, per Nielsen’s Media Distributor Gauge for December. Having the most-viewed TV series of 2024, Bluey, which tallied 55.62 billion minutes watched last year, certainly helped. And, in fact, all five of the top five most-viewed series of 2024 — Grey’s Anatomy, Family Guy, Bob’s Burgers and NCIS among them — were all available to watch on a Disney platform.

YouTube, meanwhile, appears to be reaping the benefits by orienting its app as a viewing destination on TV sets instead of just as a second screen for videos. The Google-owned platform claimed...

The neo-western drama genre saw a considerable boost, all thanks to the massive success of Yellowstone. The series wrapped up after five long series last year, but the show’s universe is still alive and thriving with multiple prequels and spinoffs. 1923, a show’s prequel, has also become a fan favorite.

Though the first season of 1923 came out in 2022, the audience has been patiently waiting to see the Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford starrer’s next season. Now that the second season is slated for release, the cast has teased the upcoming edition and what to expect.

“You don’t know what you’re made of until you have to fight for it.” A sentiment that seems to echo louder with each passing season of Yellowstone. The gripping saga of the Duttons is far from your standard family drama. Instead, it’s a brutal, no-holds-barred clash of bloodlines, legacy, and fate. But what if the story didn’t end with the final sunsets over the ranch? What if the future of the Dutton empire—its very survival—hinged on the unlikeliest of warriors?

Picture this: a fresh generation, born from the ashes of betrayal and unfinished business, rises up to stake their claim. James Jr., the son of Jamie Dutton and Cristina, carries a legacy far weightier than many realize. This is the sequel idea that Taylor Sheridan needs to seriously consider—because the saga of Yellowstone isn’t done just yet.

Taylor Sheridan is one of the most prolific writers working in film and television today, with shows such as "Tulsa King," "Landman," "Lioness," and "Mayor of Kingstown" becoming hits on the small screen. His projects tend to be action-packed and full of drama, and they attract A-list names like Kevin Costner, Billy Bob Thornton, and Zoe Saldana. However, "Yellowstone" is his prize horse, and it's spawned a successful franchise that includes spin-offs like "1883" and "1923," with more on the way.

Sheridan deserves plenty of credit for his success, and the fact he's such a highly sought-after writer proves that he has talent. That said, there are lines of dialogue on "Yellowstone" that are straight-up cringe-inducing, albeit in a way that's quite entertaining and adds to the series' trashy, soap opera-esque qualities. Keeping that in mind, let's reminisce about some of the worst lines to make it from the script...

Hallmark has released the Wcth Season 12, Episode 5 “Mom’s The Word” Sneak Peek Video. Right away, Kayla Wallace is there as the inspiring Fiona Miller. Erin Krakow’s Elizabeth is happy to give her a big hug and welcome her back. Also, Little Jack (Hyland Goodrich) gives “Miss Miller” an adorable welcome.

However, Fiona did not return on her own. She found a young heiress, Ava (Tiera Skovbye), who was walking from the station. Worse yet, someone stole “all her things.” Elizabeth is shocked and turns to talk to Ava.

The world of entertainment is closely intertwined with the world of politics. Especially in the realm of Hollywood where political commentary is a commonly found element, polarizing figures end up connecting, forging unlikely connections. This couldn’t be more true when the recent Presidential elections happened in the United States. In a ‘war’ between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, Republicans and Democrats, even the film industry had its stars divided, supporting one camp over the other.

While actors like Robert Downey Jr. and singers like Taylor Swift voiced their support for Harris, Hollywood legend Mel Gibson supported Trump. Known for his unfiltered opinions and often audacious statements, Gibson was all for Trump and his ‘relationship’ with the now 47th President of the United States has only grown, leading him to be announced as ‘Special Ambassadors’ to Hollywood.

Ever since this revelation,...

Netflix offers another true crime series where the filmmakers put the media on trial. The most current example is American Manhunt: O.J. Simpson, a series that, by the third episode, points fingers at the salacious nature of the case, which was perfect for the dawn of putting a trial on television.

However, the series offers eye-opening, fair treatment from both sides of the aisle. It correctly shows that putting the trial on television affected both sides. From the prosecutors to the defense attorneys, from the judge to the jury, everyone thought and acted differently because of it.

That makes American Manhunt: O.J. Simpson so compelling, gripping, and, at times, jaw-dropping. This behind-the-scenes true crime docuseries, the first original from Netflix on the case, pulls back the curtain on the maneuvering and explains why the infamous Hall of Fame football player was charged but never convicted.

Taylor Sheridan has done Hollywood a huge favor by bringing his talents to the industry. The actor/writer has managed to corner a market that the execs of Tinsel Town considered entirely lost, especially given that content that came out of the industry didn’t necessarily skewer toward the mid-western audience.

However, the writer’s biggest threat in the industry seems to be himself, given how there has been an overwhelmingly positive response to his prequels to Yellowstone, so much so that fans are of the opinion that while the show has immense merit on its own, it fails to stand up to the prequels that Sheridan has penned.

Spoiler Alert !!!Spoilers ahead for Yellowstone

Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone finally ended last year with its fifth season. Despite feuding with lead star Kevin Costner, the show returned without him and gave not necessarily a satisfying, but poetic ending with its finale. While the series has ended, there are still prequels and spinoffs in various stages of development.

The reception for Yellowstone’s final season was polarizing. Many fans accused Sheridan of playing it safe and not staying true to its core themes of moral ambiguity. The biggest examples of this were the heel turn and eventual death of Jamie Dutton, played by Wes Bentley. His death did not seem like a natural end for the character but was a statement.

Kevin Costner is an icon of the Western genre having established himself as a leading man appearing in several movies in the genre during the 1980s. Costner saw a career resurgence with his performance as John Dutton in the neo-Western drama series Yellowstone. However, Costner eventually exited the series and pursued his dream project the Western epic Horizon.

Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 1 premiered in June 2024, with Costner having already mapped out an entire franchise. However, the first installment received lukewarm reviews and underperformed at the box office. As a result, reports suggest that Costner is in deep financial trouble and hopes that one company will help him recover from it. Here are all the latest updates about the future of Kevin Costner’s Horizon franchise.

Yellowstone has made Kelly Reilly a household name. Her character Beth Dutton’s courage and confidence shine through her performance, but her one quirk left the actress feeling uncomfortable throughout the show’s five seasons.

Following Yellowstone Season 5 Part B’s divisive ending, both fans and cast members have been reminiscing about its best moments. The episodes released on the heels of the show’s lead actor Kevin Costner and creator Taylor Sheridan’s feud weren’t the easiest to digest. Fans hated Dutton family patriarch John Dutton and his adopted son Jamie Dutton’s (Wes Bentley) fate a sentiment echoed amongst the critics as well. However, most fans will unanimously agree with Reilly’s candid confession about her character.

Kelly Reilly despised 1 thing about Beth Dutton

Beth Dutton isn’t someone you’d look up to for leading a disciplined life.

He's one of the most successful authors in history, but Stephen King is still a human being with regrets. Granted, the regrets he's most vocal about typically relate to his own career choices, but according to a recent social media post, he's also upset at the fact he likes Taylor Sheridan's "Landman" series on Paramount+.

"Landman" takes place in the realm of the Texas oil industry and sees Billy Bob Thornton play a fixer for a giant tycoon. This puts him into contact with everyone from the cartel to politicians, while simultaneously dealing with his seductive ex-wife, feisty teenage daughter, and a son who witnesses a traumatic on-site accident. While there isn't any ranching involved, "Landman" is another Sheridan Western that will appeal to fans of "Yellowstone" due to its masculine bravado, which is why King hates himself for liking it.

"Landman: I sorta hate myself for liking this,...

In the pantheon of Taylor Sheridan TV shows, Landman might be the most divisive. Those who love the Texas-set drama really love it, while others just can’t get on board with the story of a fire-breathing oil company henchman trying to navigate his own turbulent romance, the threat of harm against his men by both faulty equipment and the neighboring cartel, and, well, the fact that not everyone’s happy about his line of work causing irreparable damage to the planet. Even those in the category of adoring this new addition can admit, however, that there are some striking similarities between this and other parts of the creator’s catalogue — particularly with Yellowstone — and it goes well beyond the fact that both leads wear cowboy hats and drive trucks. In one case, there’s even a bit of shared scripting between the two shows. Here’s a look at...

With shows like Tulsa King and Yellowstone, Taylor Sheridan has become a household name. His writing skills and directorial prowess are worthy of appreciation as his work keeps the masses coming back week after week for another dose of that ranch lifestyle and mob boss feels.

Before these iconic television shows, Sheridan used to write for movies and even tried making his career as an actor. Though he continues to make a cameo or even specifically write a part to portray in the shows, the storyteller has yet to repeat his greatest feat in the movie business.

TV production stayed down last year, though the decline was slower than the year before, dropping 7% from 2023, according to a Luminate report. The entertainment industry is still recovering from the impact of the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, which affected nearly every corner of film and TV.

Broadcast TV bounced back faster than other formats. Networks worked hard to get shows back on the air early in the year, resulting in a surprising 25% rise in production. Cable, however, struggled the most, with the original series hitting new lows, down 15% compared to 2023.

Streaming hasn’t fully recovered either. Netflix, though still leading in the U.S., produced 22% fewer series last year. Only Prime Video avoided cuts in U.S.-based content over the last two years.

Disney+ had a mix of results in 2024. While big franchises like Marvel and Star Wars underperformed, The Acolyte emerged as a standout, pulling in 2.7 billion minutes watched,...

A lot of Taylor Sheridan’s work seems to be focused on making great character pieces, whether it services the plot or not. Sheridan revealed in a roundtable with The Hollywood Reporter that his process for churning out these amazing stories rests on one possible problem that he includes in his writing.

More often than not, the writer revealed, that when it comes to writing characters, Sheridan would imagine a particular actor in the role that he is writing. This is usually considered to be a double-edged sword, given that the availability of an actor is subject to a lot of variables, and it is completely possible that the actor that the part is written for could decide not to do the show at all.

Back in 2016, when David Mackenzie’s Hell or High Water debuted at Cannes and later graced the theaters with positive reviews, it was actually the Texas-born actor Taylor Sheridan’s brainchild that later earned an Oscar nomination for original screenplay. And that’s what marked a new era for Sheridan as a writer.

Now, Taylor Sheridan has a number of projects associated with his name—be it for acting, directing, or writing. However, fans have always been intrigued by his 2016 screenplay which left people in awe. So to address the inspiration behind his idea, Sheridan opened up about a particularly gut-wrenching real-life situation.

Monica Dutton did not always have the spotlight in Yellowstone to the same degree as other major characters. She was often overlooked and consequently suffered from her poorly written arc. After getting tossed into the world of the Duttons following her marriage with Kayce, the heir to the Yellowstone ranch, Monica has had a very confusing journey.

Her presence in the show proved to be promising as her relationship with Kayce created tension between him and his father, John. The patriarch once expressed dislike for their child and even suggested abortion, but this took a complete 180-degree turn when John eventually wanted to build a relationship with his grandson. Now, Monica had to live with all the drama of the Duttons.
