00:00Yellowstone's future is in danger.

00:02Beth and Rip's spinoff series, which is arguably the most important Yellowstone sequel that

00:07will act as the sixth season of the prematurely cancelled series, is facing the risk of being

00:12revoked completely.

00:13Yes, you heard it right.

00:15First we got the news that the Dutton Ranch title was just a rumor, then Kohlhauser expressed

00:20that the show still has no story whatsoever.

00:23And now, we are struck with the news that the show might be cancelled completely.

00:27I mean, what the hell is happening to the Yellowstone universe, and why do we keep getting negative

00:32updates about one of its most anticipated shows?

00:35Let's talk about it.

00:36You might remember that after Yellowstone ended abruptly in the beginning of the year, Paramount

00:41has made a big announcement.

00:43In this announcement, they revealed that even though the original series has ended, this

00:47is not the end of the franchise.

00:49Instead, they are working on multiple new shows, mostly sequels, that will act as the future

00:55of the Yellowstone storyline.

00:57And the most prominent of the bunch is a spinoff series focusing on Beth and Rip and their

01:02new ranch.

01:03As a highlight on how much of a continuation this show is to the original Yellowstone,

01:07it was also stated that the release date will be November 2025, exactly a year after Yellowstone's

01:13final season premiere.

01:15Honestly, at the time, it felt poetic to hear these words.

01:19After all, we were heartbroken by how things were handled in Yellowstone's finale.

01:23And this new show presented a new hope for the future of the franchise.

01:27Plus, after waiting two years for Yellowstone Season 5 Part 1, and then yet another year

01:32for Part 2, it didn't feel too much to wait a year for a brand new show within the franchise.

01:37Correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I can tell, we were happy, excited, and hopeful

01:41for the future of this beautiful universe that we invested years in.

01:46And then, everything started to collapse once again.

01:48First, it is revealed that the title will be The Dutton Ranch, which sounded great, and

01:53yet Kohlhauser did not lose any time to crash our dreams about the title, as he said these

01:58were baseless rumors and the show will not have such a title.

02:02I don't know if it's just me, but he also sounded a bit bitter about it, as if the suggested

02:06title was an insult to the show or something, which I found odd.

02:10I mean, what is wrong with the Dutton name, am I right?

02:13Our beloved Kohlhauser did not stop there, though.

02:16Soon after this statement, he came out and said in June that the show was yet to have

02:20a clear storyline.

02:22Can you believe it?

02:23Remind you, this show was supposed to out in November, and now, just five months prior,

02:27they revealed that they don't have a scenario at hand.

02:30Which is crazy to me, and honestly, it is also pretty irresponsible.

02:34I mean, I lost the count of how many times Taylor shared and prioritized other shows of

02:39his over Yellowstone projects, but I know that this is one of those cases that we can

02:43absolutely blame his priority issues for.

02:46And now, just a couple of days ago, Paramount revealed that the show's release schedule

02:50has been updated and delayed to 2026.

02:54I mean, is any one of you shocked to hear this?

02:57Because honestly, after these blow after blows, I was already expecting such news.

03:02And guess what I expect to hear next?

03:04Of course, none other than the cancellation news.

03:07Because my friends, I'd like to remind you that we experiences the same exact process

03:10with Yellowstone season 5 part 2, they first postponed it for like a couple of times, and

03:16then BOOM, they revealed that this was actually the last season, and the show was cancelled.

03:21Seriously, like, I can't believe Paramount keeps disrespecting us like this over and over

03:26again, and yet here we are, still desperately hoping that we are wrong and things will turn

03:31out great in the end somehow.

03:33Now, the reason behind the delay seems to be a mix of factors.

03:37If you didn't know, Paramount Network recently merged with Skydance, which has caused some

03:42reshuffling and re-budgeting across several projects, not just the Dutton Ranch.

03:47And yes, despite Cole's dismissiveness of the title, I'll keep referring to the show like

03:51this until something better comes.

03:54Anyway, this merger probably means the studio is making sure the show gets the resources and support

03:59it deserves before filming begins.

04:01I mean, not gonna like.

04:03I kinda get it.

04:04After all, it's a big production with high expectations, and rushing it would be a disservice

04:09to the characters and fans like me who want the best.

04:12Do you see how I'm still holding on to the positive thinking?

04:15That's how much I adore this franchise, but let me know if I'm alone in this.

04:20Another practical reason is timing.

04:22Paramount's fall schedule for 2025 is already packed with Taylor Sheridan's shows, which

04:27I briefly mentioned just a second ago.

04:29Mayor of Kingstown Season 4 is slated for October 2025, and Landman Season 2 is set to

04:35drop in December.

04:37Admittedly, adding the Dutton Ranch to this crowded lineup might have been overwhelming.

04:42And yes, spacing out these shows more strategically will give each one room to breathe and shine.

04:48That being said, personally, I still struggle to understand how Mayor of Kingstown can be

04:53prioritized over the Yellowstone franchise.

04:55But hey, that's just me, I guess.

04:58So what exactly will the Dutton Ranch be about?

05:01As the title suggests, it follows Rip and Beth's journey, continuing the story from where

05:05Yellowstone left off.

05:07We know these two characters have been through so much, both separately and together.

05:12So it wouldn't be so surprising to hear that Rip's toughness and Beth's fierceness are

05:17going to be front and center in this new show, as they navigate what it means to run a ranch

05:22and a family.

05:23The story will explore Rip and Beth's relationship in more detail, including the ways they're

05:27trying to build a new legacy, all while handling the personal and external conflicts that come

05:32with their pasts.

05:33Plus, it's expected to address the possibility of Rip and Beth starting a family, something

05:38that's been hinted at, especially considering Beth's complicated history with infertility.

05:44It's a chance to see these two grow and evolve beyond what we witnessed in Yellowstone, giving

05:48us a new chapter filled with familiar faces and fresh challenges.

05:52As for the cast, right now, we know for sure that if the show actually comes to fruition,

05:58Cole Hauser and Kelly Riley are reprising their roles as Rip Wheeler and Beth Dutton.

06:02It's comforting to know the actors who have brought these characters to life will be

06:06the ones continuing their stories, keeping that authentic connection alive.

06:11Alongside them, Finn Little will return as Carter, Beth, and Rip's young son.

06:16And I'm really excited to see them as a family.

06:19Unfortunately, besides these three, there's been little news about additional cast members,

06:23and filming has yet to officially start.

06:26Finn Little even posted a photo of himself sporting a cowboy hat and a beard, captioning it,

06:30been a big week, ready for the weekend.

06:33This sparked hope among us that the famous cowboy camp, which is a traditional start of

06:38filming gathering for Yellowstone productions, might be on the horizon.

06:42However, there's no official confirmation yet about the filming schedule.

06:46And with the series delay, it's likely production hasn't kicked off, which is a huge bummer.

06:51And I'm crossing my fingers at this point that we wouldn't get that dreadful cancellation

06:55news anytime soon.

06:57But my tongue was burned by Taylor and Paramount before, so I'm proceeding with caution.

07:02Let me know what you think, though.
