Yellowstone, and its depiction of those who roam Montana's grassy hills and deep valleys, strode back into the nation's TV sets on Sunday, with more than 16 million viewers tuning into the most recent episode. Like a lone cowboy riding his horse into the sunset, the show's co-creator and writer, Taylor Sheridan, seems to be living his dream.
Yellowstone’s huge success has attracted boomer icons—with Sylvester Stallone, Helen Mirren, and Harrison Ford all signing up to work with Sheridan on other shows—and record-breaking viewing figures: The premiere episode of the most recent season garnered 15.9 million viewers.
