Though there is no such thing as a means of denying the recognition of the showrunner – whose reveals presently maintain the highest three positions on Paramount+’s US TV chart – it appears that evidently for a lot of, his “self-indulgence” is sporting skinny after he reappeared in Season 5’s penultimate episode as Travis Wheatley, and introduced with him a real-life supermodel as his onscreen girlfriend.
There’s something to be stated for anybody with the ability to produce hit after hit, and Sheridan has touched a wealthy vein with reveals like Yellowstone (and its many spinoffs and prequels), Tulsa King, and Lioness. Nonetheless, the controversy that has surrounded Yellowstone Season 5B has taken a toll on Sheridan’s golden contact. From Kevin Costner’s extremely publicized departure from the present, to a number of character deaths that haven’t gone down properly with audiences, and a plummeting Popcornmeter rating on Rotten Tomatoes, the present run of episodes seems to be digging itself a grave because it heads into its ultimate episode.
The newest episode, which aired on Sunday night time, was slammed by some followers for abandoning any sort of plot development in favor of giving Sheridan’s character loads of screentime in his personal present. Labeled as “self-indulgent”, Sheridan’s return because the smug Travis Wheatley (learn into that what you’ll) was a set of moments of posing and horse driving, in addition to introducing supermodel Bella Hadid as his girlfriend to the disbelief of many. As one X/Twitter consumer put it:
“Why the f*ck is Bella Hadid in Yellowstone?”
Taylor Sheridan Slammed by ‘Yellowstone’ Followers
Yellowstone was setting itself as much as be the proper collection only a yr in the past.

Nonetheless, issues modified shortly with the lack of Costner, and the writing was on the wall for a tumultuous finish to the collection.
Nonetheless, after one other main character dying, and loads of screentime for Sherdian’s personal face, it appears that evidently the dusty bandwagon has misplaced a wheel and is now hurtling in the direction of an ending that many simply don’t appear to care about anymore. As @gabspeaking put it of their X/Twitter feedback:
“Possibly if Taylor Sheridan spent extra time learning writing than driving #yellowstone would not have became a cringeworthy midlife disaster shitshow.”
They usually weren’t alone. @Hesadawg shared their views, saying , “As somebody who’s by no means had a foul phrase to say about [Yellowstone], that was the worst episode I’ve ever seen.

It was higher when he didn’t have very many traces. Don’t like this episode in any respect. This present wasn’t sleepy till now. Loser!”
Whereas there is no such thing as a doubt that many will nonetheless tune in to see how Yellowstone ends, it’s clear that, as may be seen within the submit beneath, there was actually just one purpose why many tuned in to the collection every week, and that purpose was to not see Sheridan flashing his muscle groups.
