Is “Yellowstone” on Paramount Plus?

“Yellowstone” airs on the Paramount Network. This might lead you to believe that it is available to stream on Paramount Plus, but that is not the case.

Due to a complicated streaming arrangement (which Paramount likely regrets in light of the show’s unexpected popularity), “Yellowstone” will not be available on Paramount Plus at any time in the near future.

Instead, exclusive streaming rights to the series belong to Peacock.

The streaming service is offering the first five seasons of the show on-demand, with the second half of season 5 releasing some time after the show airs.

When comes “Yellowstone‘ season 5 return?

“Yellowstone” returns Sunday to conclude its fifth and final season, November 10, 2024. These will be the last six episodes of the series, meaning there will be no season 6 of “Yellowstone.”

Who is in “Yellowstone” season 5 part 2?

“Yellowstone” has a significant roster of recognizable stars, including:

• Kevin Costner as John Dutton
• Wes Bentley as Jamie Dutton
• Kelly Reilly as Beth Dutton
• Luke Grimes as Kayce Dutton
• Cole Hauser as Rip Wheeler
• Gil Birmingham as Thomas Rainwater

“Yellowstone” has two spin-off series. This is where Paramount Plus comes into the picture.

The first of these, ‘1883’, stars Sam Elliott, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, and consists of one season of ten episodes. It is only available on Paramount Plus.

1923 stars Helen Mirren, Harrison Ford and Brandon Sklenar. It has aired one season so far, which is only available on Paramount Plus. A second (and final) season will air sometime after “Yellowstone” ends.

You can sign up for Paramount Plus on the streaming service’s website.

Currently, Paramount Plus offers two plans: a “limited commercial” option for $6 per month ($60 per month), and a premium “no commercial” option for $12 per month ($120 per year). You can try both levels with a full 7-day free trial.

Paramount Plus will also be home to upcoming “Yellowstone” spinoffs such as “1944,” the sequel to “1923” and the current spinoff “6666.”
