Yellowstone in release order
Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone is the clearest case on this site for why time of day matters. Six dates on this page carry both a Yellowstone episode and a prequel one, and the prequel comes first every time - because Paramount+ dropped it in the small hours while Yellowstone went out at eight in the evening.
In release order, Yellowstone starts in June 2018, and 1883 (2021-22), 1923 (from 2022) and Lawmen: Bass Reeves (2023) arrive during its run. Yellowstone ends in December 2024, and Marshals, The Madison and Dutton Ranch follow in 2026, with each streaming premiere ahead of that night's broadcast.
How to read this table
Everything is in the order it came out, oldest first. The columns:
- Air date — when the entry was first released. Where a page carries something first seen outside the United States, that is the date used, and the notes under the table say so.
- Sch — schedule order, which breaks a tie within a single day. On a night two of these went out, the earlier slot comes first - and a streaming episode that dropped after midnight comes before a programme broadcast that evening.
- Notes — click Notes ... on any row for the episode's links and, where there is one, an explanation of the cross-over.
- Watch — where you can watch that entry, in your own country. The badges link to the episode itself rather than to the service's front page. On a narrow screen this column is hidden - tap Notes ... on a row to see the same thing.
- Watched — tick a box and it is remembered in this browser. Turn syncing on in Preferences and it follows you between devices, with no account and no email address. An episode listed on more than one franchise is ticked on all of them at once.
Three icons can appear in the Notes cell, and they are the reason this site bothers with release order at all:
Story impact — this episode references another series in the franchise.
Story arc — it is part of a story running across several series.
Guest star — a character from another series appears in it.
In the Watch column, the shape of a badge is the difference between watching something now and paying for it again:
- P+ Solid — included with a subscription to that service.
- P+ Outlined — there to rent or buy.
Your country is worked out from your connection and can be changed in Preferences. It is a snapshot rather than a live check, so treat it as a strong hint rather than a promise — services add and drop things constantly.

About this order
What's on this list
114 entries from June 2018 to 2026: all 53 episodes of Yellowstone, 1883, both seasons of 1923, Lawmen: Bass Reeves, Marshals, Dutton Ranch and The Madison.
Two of these are on the page by decision, not by inheritance
Lawmen: Bass Reeves was announced as *1883: The Bass Reeves Story* and made under that banner, but its own Wikipedia article, IMDb and the Sheridan navbox all now file it outside the franchise, and nothing in it touches a Dutton. It is here for where it came from rather than for what is in it.
The Madison is the same shape of call. It was developed as a present-day Yellowstone sequel under the working title *2024*, and Paramount+ said before launch that it stands alone - its six episodes name no Dutton and no Yellowstone location. It is on the page and carries no cross-over flag, which is the honest combination.
The gaps in the run are real
Yellowstone's fifth season was split with 679 days between its two halves. Season 5 part 2 is on this page where it went out, not where it was commissioned.
Marshals is the first of the franchise to run on a linear network - CBS Sundays at eight - and was titled *Y: Marshals* until January 2026.
One ordering worth arguing about
On 19 December 2021 Paramount premiered 1883 on linear television immediately after that night's Yellowstone, and this page still ranks 1883 first, because the Paramount+ drop came earlier in the day. It is consistent with the rule the rest of the page follows. It may not be the order anybody actually watched it in, and that tension is written down rather than smoothed over.
What does not exist
6666 was announced in February 2021 and never cast or shot; Sheridan ruled it out publicly in August 2026, saying he would not fictionalise a working ranch. 1944 was announced in November 2023 and has no cast, no order and no date.
