Except for the way overdone "your mom" jokes
Yeah, I love Beth and even I thought her talk with the kid was overly harsh. She just tries too hard to be the bad *****.
Her getting fired and taking a shot at the assistant guy on the way out was another example.
And that "cliffhanger" was lame as well. She gets fired and threatened by the weird lady and then nothing seems to come from it. I guess that's what next season will be about, but it was lame and minor compared to last seasons attacks. We were looking all offseason to who would survive, etc. and this time we're looking forward to.....?

This. Did the "Longmire" writers take over at some point this season?JCA1 said:
I have no idea what that vision quest thing was.
Yea the goodbye was just cringy. Would have played off so much better had Jimmy and Colby just hugged it out, then Jimmy gets in the truck, rolls down the window and tells Colby he will see he and his mom at Thanksgiving.Jimmy McNulty said:One Louder said:Pahdz said:

The writers wrote it like a your mom joke had never been done before so it's ok if we spent 50 lines of dialog on it because everyone will LOL.
The key to the jimmy storyline is that it's ideal for a young cowboy to win a rodeo belt and then plow through your pick of buckle bunnies and it won't matter how much of a doofus you were.
Did Casey tell Monica he saw the end of them? I thought that was what I heard.

Yeah
Im looking for Ray Finkle.... and a clean pair of shorts. Im just a very big Finkle fan. This is my Graceland, sir.
He said the "end of us". Could mean the Dutton family

Yeah
It was mentioned a few posts up but that's one way of interpreting it. Could just as easily mean the end of the Yellowstone/Duttons.
He was shown 2 paths and he didn't look like either one was good. "The end of us" could mean a bunch of different things. End of the Dutton ranch, end of him being with Monica/her family, everyone dying or some other tragedy.
Writers "hey - lets make it so the audience knows something bad happens, but doesn't know what, just like we don't, but then when it happens, we can reference it back to that worthless season with the wolf and the paths"TXAG 05 said:

Exactly.
The writers have no idea what "the end of us" refers to either.

I think most of us will agree, that we hope that it means the end of Monica. That is one character we can do without.TXAG 05 said:

It actually didn't start this summer because TS wanted The Last Cowboy to go on during the Yellowstone season. Due to reining schedule, it had to push everything back.
How about him calling Beth "Mama!"

What's in the hatch?!
To think Jamie wasn't smart enough to see Beth was setting him up for blackmail when he took the body to the train station…
But, assuming he used the gun Beth had in his office. He could easily just frame her back that it was her gun, and she had motive…plant the gun in her car and have the new sheriff find it.
The storylines in this show are just all around garbage.

Different gun.
Jamie took the coward's way out. He couldn't live putting his dad back in jail. He's also scared of Rip and what would happen if Beth told Rip that he did.
Crazy to say shooting your birth father is the coward's way out but in this situation it was.

I skipped the whole Kayce vision stuff.
Beth is a disaster of a character.
Pro Tip: 1883 is on a whole other level.

Just not enough time for it to be ruined yet. Let's revisit this on Season 4.
Some random thoughts:
It was nice to see that Jimmy got promoted to "Jim" as a sign of respect from John Dutton in their conversation. And, evidently, one can leave with John's permission even carrying the brand. But leave without it, and it will not end well for you.
Beth now "owning" Jamie will surely have some interesting twists in next season. Will he be forced to give up the one thing he values (the AG job) or be left in place to do the Duttons' bidding as battles for Yellowstone pick up?
This season marked a definite "softening" of John's character:
His empathy for the protester;
His connection with "boy"
His willingness to allow Jim (formerly Jimmy) to leave the ranch with his blessing
His willingness to not draw the battle lines, allowing Kaycee to take his wife and son off Yellowstone to their own place
It seems like he's starting to recognize that he won't have the energy, resources and resolve to fight the big battle (for Yellowstone itself) if he expends the same level of time, resources and efforts to the multiple fronts he formerly fought.

I think Sheridan is setting up for Kasey to take the Native American side in a showdown over the Yellowstone....what happened to the Native Americans wanting their ancestral homeland back anyway? I mean, the Native Lawyer girl hinted strong at it in the finale of Season 3 and then we never saw her again in season 4 was kind of strange....but I guess TS couldn't fit her in over his cutting horses!
In my experience, there's no such thing as luck.

Not only that, didn't this season start with a flashback to Indians wanting to bury their elder on the Yellowstone? And then it was strongly implied those bones were unearthed during construction of the airport. Literally the opening scene and the jumping off point to start the season only to never be mentioned again. Just bizarre.

I think John will drop out of the governor's race and Jamie will run unopposed. After all, why does John need to be governor if he has Jamie in his back pocket. He didn't want to be governor in the first place, there was just no other option
Agree. Jamie is now the puppet governor.
Ah, the "Reverse Westworld".

How long do you want to ignore this user?

What about killing Sawyer with a rattlesnake? There has been no follow up or repercussions for that action. Dude was working for the company they are battling with currently, just water under the bridge?
Dude I've got 6 acres in Bell county I don't "walk around ". Daughter saw a rattlesnake 13 years ago. I'm good. His death was a believable accident, kinda. If she had never passed by that rattler, I'd have happily walked all around. But I'm good. Gotta a golf cart.
Yeah I figure that's WHY he used a rattlesnake. Perfectly normal/natural to be bitten by a snake and die. No tie-in to Rip, no evidence, etc.
