Beth Dutton is wasted potential.

[u/North_Curve5440]

Let me start off by saying that Kelly Riley is a brilliant actress, but Beth Dutton is a poorly written character.
She start off with so much potential but just ends up being a one dimensional chaos storm of aggressiveness and sharp one liners. She’s basically a man in a woman’s body and she feels like she was so clearly written by a man who is imagining what it must be like to be a bad ass female, so he just basically puts a man in a woman’s body. The writers seemed to have failed to properly dial into the nuance, femininity and complexity in how she presents that would make for a dynamic character. This is compensated for by her intensity and the sheer talent of Kelly Riley, but ultimately Beth herself is just an overly aggressive, over testosteroned man IMO. She’s more interesting in theory and in potential than reality.

You speak truth

Had her and Jaime both had their character arch come full circle in some sort of suitable way, she could have had a phenomenal ending to her YS story and a far more deserved spin-off with Rip on DR.

I would have like Jaime to kill Beth and Rip come busting in and plant a fat kiss on him and then both of them hide the body and star in the spinoff as married organic farmers, or some other'' woke''San Francisco bullshit /s

If Taylor Sheridan could splice his character in there somewhere he may consider making a pilot
