Taylor Sheridan, the creator of Yellowstone, the showrunner, and a deity to the cowboy-at-heart, is frequently acclaimed for his gripping, gritty, and frequently crime-driven dramas, but the prolific author isn't given enough credit for his sense of balance.

Its one of the main reasons Yellowstones fan base keeps expanding, even as the programme enters its fifth and presumed penultimate season.Its also the reason why fans have remained enthralled throughout the whole run of the programme.

The best way to describe the first two episodes is as a compilation of fantastic moments. At the governors banquet, Ryan (Ian Bohen) met a potential love interest. Introducing Clara, John's aide, who appears to be a new ally (Lilli Kay).

The major problem is that there is a lot going on in the first two episodes but nothing is really progressing. The viewers had to have known John would win the election even before the season 5 trailer was released, but that doesn't change the fact that the Duttons are at war with Market Equities.

The main issue is that although there is a lot happening in the first two episodes, nothing really advances. The fact that the Duttons are at war with Market Equities doesn't change the reality that fans had to know John would win the election even before the season 5 trailer was posted.
