That was basically fight club lol
The fight was just so excessive...totally unnecessary. No human can withstand that many blows...and that's not to mention the MAJOR stab wound on the young guy. ... silly.
This show is getting ready to jump the shark...they are running out of storylines if they spend this much time on a simple grudge.
Beths attitude was kind of fun at first, but now its a bit obnoxious.
I'm sorry but all this over a buckle bunny? It feels super absurd to me that Lloyd of all people would be this bent out of shape over a buckle bunny bouncing from him to another guy in the bunk house. He's far too old, mature and level headed to be fighting like a teenager over a woman's affections. What even is this plot point? How does it fit into the Yellowstone style? It feels like something that'd be in a CW show.
The show also needs to learn when to let certain threads go. Monica and Tate are all but complete as characters. She's finally out of the ranch, Tate has been "fixed" by being with his friends and family, the arc is over. You can leave Kayce to be the mainstay character with glancing shots of Monica and Tate to remind us they exist, they don't need prime screen time at this point.
I think it was a terrible decision to get rid of Jimmy and send him to another ranch. He was the one "grounding" character that I was rooting for, and now he's back to square one. We're supposed to be engaged on his comeback but it just rings hollow with him away from everyone else. Why can't he learn these lessons on the Dutton ranch? Rehabilitate while breaking the newly purchased horses back on the Yellowstone? It feels weird for John to send him away, is this something to do with the actors arrangements or something?
I'm rambling, but the show really is losing its spark to me. The main through-line isn't clear and there isn't really anything compelling with how we're constantly treading water as we approach the season finale. Hope the final few episodes prove me wrong.
Nooo, don't fire the girls :(((
This season has gotten worse and worse. What is the main plot exactly? Because it’s episode 6 and it seems like all episodes feel meandering, pointless, and aimless. The writing is disjointed and nothing is really happening.
Episode 6 is comically bad:
No offense meant here, but I don’t watch Yellowstone for a Jimmy spin off. Will he ever become a cowboy? Because the guy has been ranching for 3 seasons now and still looks like the new guy. I get on my phone during his scenes because it’s just scenic background music with Jimmy looking dumb.
Unpopular take: Beth Dutton gets less and less interesting every episode. Basically everything she says and does now is eyeroll inducing and ridiculous. Her ‘badass-ness’ is tiresome and predictable. Just the writers feeling 'what mean girl line can we come up with this time'. It feels redundant. Her lines to Summer Higgins were a new level of cringe-worthy for this series, wishing any type of cancer on anyone is a bridge too far. And I’m really over her and Jaime. Their scenes basically are: Jamie: “You’re going to destroy me” Beth: _“I’m going to destroy you”. This storyline needs to be resolve immediately.
Summer Higgins is the most stereotypical 'annoying animal activist, vegan girl' ever. It’s just lazy writing because this could have been an interesting and nuanced interaction between these characters who are completely different, but instead her character was built upon a foundation of clichés. And I know they were trying to make her requests seem absurd, but all they did was make John Dutton's chef look dumb. Yes, you can be a cowboy’s chef and still know what gluten is. Any cook who uses flour knows what gluten is.
Will ‘Boy’ ever shower, wash his hair? Because every week I'm like ‘he's still in the same clothes?’ And it seems like Beth completely forgot about him.
Every time I think Jamie is going to do something right, he chokes. He is so weak, it's cringe.
Kill off Monica. Let Kayce be a tragic sexy widower. I give Monica two episodes before she hates their new house, too.
Lloyd vs Walker - Had to fast-forward through that fight. I don’t know why they needed to waste so much screen time on it, so unnecessary. Not to mention how it was possible for Walker to fight like he is Mike Tyson after getting stabbed in the left shoulder the previous night.
Lloyd used to be this wise ass old man and now he’s throwing his toys of the pram because a girl 30 years younger than him has gone for someone else. And he’s resorted to STABBING :skull: pathetic
Okay, Monica is absolutely nuts. I wonder when Kayce had time to bang another one when all she does is run around whistling? This jealous bullshit is getting on my nerves. She's been complaining about everything since the first episode and even when everything is finally done to make her happy, there's more bullshit. Tiring. Beth's a stale character who keeps saying the same thing over and over again. Jamie is absolutely useless and a coward. No one cares about Jimmy or his journey to becoming a cowboy. And I'm not even gonna comment on Summer.
The only thing that saved this episode in my eyes was that last line from the kid when John was leaving on the hill. "I want to be like him."
I'm not a cowboy but here are my two cents for that brawl between those two henchmen of Kevin's Costner character, the fight was ridiculous on the other side is Men will be Men.
Just nothing to really interest me this episode. The Jimmy scenes are boring, all Kayce essentially did this episode was get a new house, Beth’s insufferable routine has gotten way too old, I don’t care enough about Beth and Rip’s relationship, Jamie is being dumb, and what they’ve done with Lloyd’s character just doesn’t work.

It’s Beth Dutton’s world. We’re just living in it. :smiling_imp:
