Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone franchise has expanded into spin-off shows, with more soon to follow. Here's how they compare to each other.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Yellowstone has been a massive success as a modern Western television series, spawning spin-off shows that range in quality. After the tremendous success of the first Yellowstone series, the franchise has expanded into two prequels. The world of Yellowstone was created by Taylor Sheridan, a writer and producer who's been churning out shows for Paramount+, including even more planned spin-offs for his Western universe.
In one season, 1923 fails to capture the lightning-in-a-bottle entertainment of 1883's lone season or the wider intrigue of Yellowstone. 1923 resides somewhere between the two, with the possibility of telling an extensive story that remains more consistent than Yellowstone, as it did have a more effective first installment than the original series. However, after only one season, 1923 is the weakest Yellowstone show.
Elsa is a particular standout, offering the series a fresh perspective. Instead of Yellowstone's conflict of power and political intrigue, Elsa offers a unique scope on the Western genre from the viewpoint of a teenage girl. Her spirited and adventurous nature forges a perfect contrast to the horror of frontier America, an idea neatly tied together by Elsa's tragic demise in the 1883 finale.
Yellowstone season 1 isn't the smoothest start to the series, with a slow-paced zigzagging narrative that often felt over the top. However, the prestige performances and vast beauty of the Montana landscape are enough to carry the show to its second season, where it begins to hit its stride. Yellowstone seasons 2 and 3 see the Dutton family and ranch face off against a series of threats to their control, from the violent and vicious Beck Brothers to the behemoth Market Equities corporation.
