A Knife and No Coin

Enough already with the stupid cowboy roping shows and country music cameos. The show is so boring I can't watch it anymore. I used to like this show, but now it seems so two-dimensional and uninteresting. The storylines are predictable, the dialogue too slow, and the characters lack any real depth or emotion. The performances are wooden and the plot moves along at a snail's pace. I'm just not interested in this show anymore. And the stupid crackhead guy married a hot veterenarian? In what world? I like the natural scenery of Montana as much as the next guy, but the show could use some more excitement and freshness. There's just no real suspense and the drama is too melodramatic. The writing is stale and uninspiring, and the dialogue often feels forced. And the crying needs to stop for pete's sake. The writing needs to be more dynamic and the characters need to be more believable. The show needs to be more engaging and more unpredictable. It's just not cutting it anymore. The show needs to be re-envisioned in order to remain interesting and captivating.

Greetings from Lithuania.

8th episode of "Yellowstone" season 5 was a pretty solid episode. But if you consider it as a mid season episode, it pretty much in term of all previous episodes in season 5 - its a soup opera and melodrama set in west.

On the good side of this season so far was acting - its great. Locations are amazing but how long can it last? Writing is descent enough to keep me interested while watching an episode, but its a highly forgetable one - as soon as episode ends i'm forgeting what i saw in Yellowstone - and i have pretty good memory.

Overall, while being not bad melodrama on its own, i really hope they will turn the heat on in a second half of the season.

This episode, as the most of this season, continues on the same direction which is there is no direction. Seems that the runners of the show believes that we like so much the characters that they don't have to involve them to any story, it is enough to watch them, run with horses, eat breakfast, listen music, eat lunch, (some plans from drone here and there), play cards, drink beers eat dinner and go to sleep.

Is it a documentary for cowboys lifestyle?

Ironically, this season which contains almost zero main plot and less than zero side plots has more episodes than previous ones.

This show, unfortunately, became so boring.

Right So this season has been split into 2 parts so for the mid season finale or like Breaking bad season 5 A I will review ep 1- 9

This season has definitely been the weakest so far, call it a season break or a separate season whatever, it has been poor for the standards that the show has set.

Beth is becoming quite annoying, angry speech's and aggressive attacks at Jamie can only last for so long before it feels repetitive, and now for me it's repetitive.

The story of the season so far is all about protecting the ranch and John is governor, Jamie is seduced by an opposing faction and she has him fooled, Beth tries convincing John they need to move to a better business model and Kasey and his family are met with a big event.

Not much stands out, I do think we have good moments and maybe 2 solid episodes or there than that I'm a bit disappointed.

Rip and Kasey are the only ones I have an interest in, they are pulling the show at the moment, it's like we are used to episodes that are packed and full start to end but this season they are deflated, maybe one or two things happen and the rest is all filler.

Overall a fine first half/ Season A, 7/10.

And now, the time has come. With this episode, I have now finally completed the entire run of a show that I was forced into watching by virtually everybody in my family. And it has been a strange run for me, as I've not really been that into the show, and have had to disappoint everybody who has loved it. And that's a shame, but it may also just be a question of taste, because this show was never anything that really fit my taste. However, this midseason finale actually gave me some genuinely emotional moments that really made the episode an overall successful episode.

This episode does work as the culmination of a lot of different season-long arcs that have reached a big crescendo, especially in terms of John's storyline. He has gotten away with things as governor for a long time, but after the things that were set up in the last episode were put in motion, that may have reached its end (and not just because Kevin Costner is no longer involved with the show going forward). The first half of the episode was very much dedicated to some very emotional moments between characters, and does signal a real investment from my side because of how nice I found these moments. The small character interactions have always been the heart of this show, and that's what really gives it heart and makes it something that people will want to continue watching. However, there are still the troubles of making everything fit and give it all the ending that it needs, while still furthering the story along and giving the audiences something to look forward to. And while this episode certainly set up a lot for the last half of the season, it also didn't feel like a definitive answer to a lot of our questions, and the long gap between seasons hasn't really done anything good for the show's flow. The conflict between Beth and Jamie has gotten to the point now where it doesn't even feel real anymore and the writers seem to be milking it for some kind of big show this coming season that also just feels weak.

"A Knife and a Coin" is a surprisingly emotional episode and a lot of character interactions gave the show a heart that it needed. But while this is one of the more interesting episodes of the season, it also left it all off with a weird taste in our mouths and it's impossible to garner a lot of excitement for what is to come.
