Life Is a Promise (2024)

Review by cybersavior-03811

Life Is a Promise

Yellowstone

5/10

A great show, prior to this season...finale was on par with that.

Yellowstone was well written stories, great acting, and strong characters and solid development throughout the series. This one kicked off all of the other spin-offs (which have all been excellent), and was a really, really good show. That said, I think this series just ran far too long, and its stories were already told.

Season 4 was enjoyable, but not quite as strong as previous ones. Even ending there, would have been good, even if they never did a specific finale episode.

Season 5, with Kevin Costner leaving, should not have been made. Or at least not made without a great story, to do the series the justice it deserved. Instead they just kill him off, start a detective story, and try to wrap it up with the introduction of nefarious characters.

Unfortunately the detective story was rather straightforward, and just stretched out over the season. There could have been so much drama and excitement with it, but there wasn't. It was slow and drawn out.

The entire season felt like it was a 90 minute story, that was stretched out to fill about 15 to 20 hours of television. The finale was the epitome of that. It was so freaking slow, and drawn out, I became bored of watching at the end. I think there was about 25 minutes of a great story, that went on, and on, and on, and...zzz.

The finale was one of the most forgettable pieces of television I've ever watched. It was so slow, predictable and boring. It seemed like a few scenes that were meant to be an homage to MASH, in their finale, but SO paled in comparison.

At any rate, I enjoyed the series, except this final one. I didn't hate it, it was just boring.
