Season 5 of ‘Yellowstone’ is now available on Peacock: Here’s how to access the Western series without cable.
Kevin Costner may put up his cowboy hat at the conclusion of Season 5, but Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone universe will continue to exist, with or without an Emmy nomination. With plans for additional prequel series, a new spinoff set to debut within a month of Yellowstone Season 5’s conclusion, and Yellowstone finally making its broadcast television debut this autumn, it is evident that there is no shortage of Yellowstone stories to tell.
If you’d like to mourn the impending death of the Dutton family patriarch — or rejoice in Matthew McConaughey’s prospective Yellowstone debut in the spinoff series — why not rewatch the hit Paramount Network series from the very beginning, in 1883?
Yellowstone Season 5 Episode 1 is now streaming on Peacock. Here’s where to watch Yellowstone, how to watch every Yellowstone spinoff in the correct order, and a workaround to watch Yellowstone Season 5 for free.

Timeline of Yellowstone explained
Even though the successful Paramount show Yellowstone premiered first, the Dutton family tree dates back much further than the Yellowstone premiere. The series currently has two prequel novels, 1883 and 1923. Several additional Yellowstone sequels are reportedly in the works. Here’s a refresher on where (and in what order) to watch Yellowstone and its subsequent spinoffs, given that the original series will conclude with Season 5, and a sequel has already been announced for release in December 2023.
1883
This Yellowstone prequel series starring Sam Elliott, Tim McGraw, and Faith Hill follows the Dutton family as they travel west across the Great Plains toward Montana. Currently, all eight episodes of this limited series are available on Paramount+.
