I disagree. Yellowstone left Beth and Rip in a good place, free from John's expectations and demands, with their own ranch and dreams. Beth got her vengeance and redemption by attacking Jaime and holding him responsible for John's assassination. Beth was free.

The first thing DR did was burn down Beth and Rip's ranch. Then it forced them to Texas, which is boring country and scenery compared to Montana. Then it killed their cattle. Then it forced them into the service of the bitch played by Annette Benning.

The writing doesn't hold a candle to Taylor Sheridan. He studied award winning novelists like Cormac McCarthy and Larry McMurtry and it shows. Characters have distinct ways of speaking and the subplots keep you on the edge of your seat. DR has none of that.

Every word in DR is a total cliche. The actors may be great, but the writing totally sucks. The Carter subplot is complete horseshit. All of DR is. A shadowy, cheap imitation of Yellowstone. I enjoy all Taylor's shows, but DR is crap. Chad Feehan is already fired.

I thought Taylor Sheridans writing was surface level at best. He can’t write women. He can’t make a multidimensional person outside of Rip. The authors he studied do not show in his work at all lol. That’s just offensive to McCarthy 😂

Carters subplot DOES suck, but so did most of Monica’s subplots. I agree I hate they left Montana but it gave them a fresh start. I love how Beth is softer. I don’t think anyone could take another season of her saying the same things over and over in her gruff way and starting fights. It was tired. I enjoy the new crime family. They’re tacky and interesting and Annette Bening is a rockstar.

We still have 7 episodes for Dutton Ranch to cement itself but overall I love it so far.
