Desire Is All You Need

Haha everyone is up in arms about this episode and i think its great. This show has been off the rails for a long time and they finally put it in high gear and got it moving.

Some characters are awful to listen to, but now that head hauncho gone the show can finish out strong with lots of revenge and visits to the train station. I have now joined the ranks of every veiwer in the world and want to see beth taking up residency at the train station. Monica is still bottom of the barrel but doesnt deserve a train ticke. Pretty much everyone else (even jamie a little) has done a good job carrying this show through this first episode. Dont listen to the cell phone film critics that like to complain. This was pretty good.

Episode 9 of Yellowstone's fifth season marks a pivotal point in the series, offering viewers a new beginning that seems to have divided opinions. While some fans are quick to criticize, it's important to appreciate the bold narrative choices and stunning cinematography that continue to define the series.

Plot and Characters: The episode brings fresh developments that are both intriguing and vital for the storyline. Characters are evolving, and their arcs reflect realistic growth and new challenges. It's a testament to the show's commitment to character development and storytelling.

Cinematography: The visual appeal remains as striking as ever. The breathtaking landscapes and meticulous scene compositions provide a cinematic experience that few TV shows can rival.

Public Reaction: Unfortunately, some viewers are resistant to change, failing to embrace the new directions. However, this episode stands as a testament to the show's enduring quality and ability to innovate. If you're not willing to give this fresh perspective a chance, perhaps it's time to move on. For those still invested, the beauty and depth of Yellowstone remain.

In conclusion, Episode 9 is a refreshing and beautiful addition to the series. If you don't enjoy the new twists, it's simple: don't watch. For those who appreciate growth and cinematic artistry, this episode delivers in spades. 🌄🎬

...this episode has some serious narrative/editing issues.

For example, it really made me dislike Beth. Kelly is an immensely talented actress, but this episode takes her character over the edge. She was an incredibly strong character from the beginning with some quirks, but this episode just tares her down to a child and I don't understand why they made the decision to edit the episode the way they did to make her seem this way.

The narrative and editing are just clunky. Incoherent at times. Rather than to serve a purpose, it seems mainly there because they couldn't figure a good way to write of Costner's character. Hopefully it just lasts an episode or two.

In this episode of Yellowstone, something just feels... off. The usual intensity and rich, sharp storytelling that Yellowstone fans have come to love seems muted, leaving a sense of disconnection from the gripping narrative we've come to expect. The writing lacks its usual punch, with some dialogues coming across as forced or simply lacking the raw authenticity that's a hallmark of the series. The pacing is also uneven, as scenes seem to either drag or rush by without a sense of purpose.

Even the acting, typically top-notch and powerful, feels a bit stifled. It's as if the actors themselves don't quite connect with the story they're telling, making it hard for the audience to feel invested. This episode, while not necessarily bad, falls short of delivering that signature Yellowstone feeling-where every line, every stare, and every moment is charged with underlying tension and purpose. For long-time fans, it's a noticeable drop in the standard, and it leaves one wondering if the show is struggling to recapture its original magic.

I have been a fan of the show, this ending is not my favourite though. While they put RIP in texas when he should be where the drama is, there is some truth on conversations had. Not only when RIP talks to Dustin but also to the cowboys. It makes you really think about what society has done and will continue doing to the environment! While shows normally don't have that much meaning, this one is true on why people should support locals and take care of the environment. Making me happy to watch this episode and enjoy it. Not saying that should matter but it does help spread the word to wake people up.
