Okie Sawbones, SASS #77381 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Halfway through Yellowstone season 4, I’d argue the show has badly lost its way, and seems to be aimless and unfocused in regard to both its overall story and the vast majority of its characters. How do you feel? I personally feel they are spending too much time on the Jimmy side story. And the bit with Jamie and his dad was lame. And don't get me started on what they did to Lloyd's character. I hope tonight's show is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anvil Al #59168 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 It's still good. BUT. Do think they are wasting to much time on some things. They need to get it moving. Part of the Jimmy thing might be getting you ready for the new spin off. Which is going to be on the 6666. They might overdo a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irish ike, SASS #43615 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 The gave us a big opening and started with who shot who. Now they're back to building the story lines for future drama or violence. When the Daltons find out who tried to kill them, they will take the guy out. Jamie will be ostracized from the family. Beth is going to destroy the company she just joined. Beth will find a way to stop the development. Jimmie will come back to run the new horse venue. The horse rustlers will be found and dealt with. Teeter will be back. Lloyd will remember why he's there and get his crap back together. The guy he fought??? is going to disappear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody has to go into the prison system to get the guy on the inside who put the hits out for Jamie’s “dad”. I think that is how Walker will earn his “freedom” from the ranch. I have seen on the internet that Walker. Will join Jimmy on the 6666. Yellowstone is a very subtle show and has very intricate plot lines. If you don’t have patience it might not be the show for you.

What if he is being prepared to be the new Jamie and adopted into the duton family? Kacey's wife might not allow the son back to the ranch. Beth is barren. Jamie is reunited with the biological. Jimmy's father released him to John who could adopt him as the new branded son who crosses with the 6666 bloodline to provide John an heir.

Tequila Shooter Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 There’s going to be another assassination attempt on John, but he survives and goes on to become governor. Rip will run the ranch. Jimmy has a relationship with girl at the 6’s, then he’ll run into his old girlfriend when he takes his new girlfriend to a rodeo. Beth will use her new company to work against the company she’s working for to stop the airport. The new hippy chick will work on the environmental front to stop land development. Kaycee will have an affair with the girl that used to work on the ranch, then when he breaks it off with her he’ll move back to the ranch. Etc, Etc.

Blackwater 53393 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 I’m enjoying the show!! If I had to rely on Forbes to choose what I eat or watch, I’d probably starve and go blindfolded!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Pollione Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Too many unresolved issues. Why did Rip murder that man fly fishing with a snake? What about the guy Casey put into the ground and closed a big grate over him? The boy Rip and Beth are abusing mentally and physically. Sleeping in a barn. No clothes to change into. Why is the boy even in this story at all? There is no soft loving side to Beth. Yellowstone started out great. But its starting to slide down hill. Remember, Jamie knows that his biological father is going to keep trying to kill all the members of his family. And he has made no attempt to contact any of them with this information.

There will be plot holes, missing details, incorrect western ranching stuff, and miscast characters, But it’s heads and shoulders above the rest of the pap available these days, and I don’t want to miss one episode.

Go West Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Yellowstone is better than any Western Forbes has made. Jimmy's new gal has fewer curves than his barrel racer squeeze. I think we need to have more train rides, starting with Jamie and his dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
