1883

If you loved YELLOWSTONE this is the prequel for you. 1883, a Yellowstone origin story, follows the Dutton family as they embark on a journey west through the Great Plains toward the last bastion of untamed America.

I am an avid Taylor Sheridan fan and this has to be one of his most powerfully stories. His depiction of immigrants desiring to come to this country, sign onto a wagon train traveling west to stake out a plot of land and start a new life is truly amazing.

His approach to this is very unique with a keen eye of the trials and tribulations these people encounter throughout their quest as only Taylor Sheridan can do.

For me this is one of the best western made for TV. The cinematography, locations and the actors made this an absolute watch. Sam Elliot is amazing and even the country singers played great roles.

It’s a timeless tale of the human experience and definitely one to watch!

“On February 15, 2022, Paramount+ announced that it had ordered more episodes of 1883. Exactly when those episodes are expected to go into production or when they could hit the streaming service was not announced.”
