Dallas
Watch it on: IMDb TV
Larry Hagman, Dallas
If you wish to watch the proto-Yellowstone, Dallas is your greatest wager. Yellowstone is not delicate about being Dallas for the 21st Century, with oil swapped for cattle. They’re each cowboy-hatted soaps a couple of wealthy, preventing household, with equally heightened melodramatic tones. The distinction is that Yellowstone is made to additionally really feel like a premium cable present with bloody violence, swearing, and nudity that they could not get away with on ’80s broadcast TV. It is the Dallas Dallas could not be.
68 Whiskey
Watch it on: CBS All Access
Sam Keeley and Cristina Rodlo, 68 Whiskey
The identical approach that Yellowstone is modern Dallas, 68 Whiskey is modern M*A*S*H. Yellowstone‘s Paramount Community sibling is a dramedy about Military medics in Afghanistan who at all times attempt to do the suitable factor, however normally go about it the flawed approach. It has a charismatic ensemble solid led by rising stars Sam Keeley, Gage Golightly, Cristina Rodlo, and Jeremy Tardy, and updates the M*A*S*H method with premium cable-style violence, profanity, and ethical ambiguity.
Succession
Watch it on: HBO
Brian Cox, Succession
Yellowstone is in regards to the Mountain West elite, and Succession is its East Coast counterpart. The reveals have just about the identical premise: An terrible father and his ruined grownup kids fend off assaults on their empire from all sides, whereas preventing amongst themselves over who will get to be daddy’s favourite (or no less than his least-disliked). The trimmings of wealth manifest a bit bit in a different way — Yellowstone has a fleet of fancy pick-up vehicles, whereas Succession has a mega-yacht — however they’re each in regards to the corrosive results of that wealth on the soul.
Longmire
Watch it on: Netflix
Robert Taylor and Lou Diamond Phillips, Longmire
In case your favourite a part of Yellowstone is its Western setting, this crime drama will probably be a satisfying subsequent step. Robert Taylor stars as Walt Longmire, the sheriff of Absaroka County, Wyoming, who investigates Western-tinged crimes whereas battling his private demons. Like on Yellowstone, battle and negotiation between the area’s white and Native American residents is a serious theme, with a selected give attention to Longmire’s relationship with the Cheyenne reservation’s tribal police power, led by Chief Mathias (Zahn McClarnon), which has its personal authority and generally works with him and generally does not.
Sons of Anarchy
Watch it on: Hulu
Charlie Hunnam, Sons of Anarchy
The similarities between Yellowstone and Sons of Anarchy are quite a few: SAMCRO and the Yellowstone ranch arms are each gangs/households which can be exhausting to hitch and more durable to depart; an obsession with codes of masculinity, poisonous and in any other case; an outlaw spirit of us-against-the-world ruggedness; girls within the household which can be more durable than any of the lads (Katey Sagal‘s Gemma on Sons and Kelly Reilly‘s Beth on Yellowstone); Charlie Hunnam and Luke Grimes‘ entire vibe. There’s even some important personnel overlap: Yellowstone‘s co-creator, author, govt producer, and director Taylor Sheridan acted on Sons of Anarchy as Deputy Police Chief David Hale, and his co-creator John Linson additionally executive-produced Sons of Anarchy. In a really possible way, Yellowstone wouldn’t exist with out Sons of Anarchy. SoA spin-off Mayans M.C. is one other macho soap in the same vein to those different reveals.
Ozark
Watch it on: Netflix
Laura Linney and Jason Bateman, Ozark
In case you love the crime household a part of Yellowstone, Ozark will hit the identical candy spot.

Like Yellowstone, it is trashy in a great way and elevated by the performances and path.
Breaking Bad
Watch it on: Netflix
Bryan Cranston, Breaking Unhealthy
Hear me out: Up to date Western setting, household drama revolving round a troublesome and demanding father determine and his conflicted son (Luke Grimes’ Kayce has some very Pinkmanian qualities), occasional forays into hair-raising brutality, neo-Nazis, Jeremiah Bitsui, a relentless feeling of “that is all going to prove very badly,” a star who talks in a really growly voice. Yellowstone lacks Breaking Unhealthy‘s relentlessness, however it has loads of different issues in widespread.
