The final episode of Yellowstone, “Life Is A Promise” premieres on Dec. 15 on the Paramount Network, but that doesn’t mean showrunner Taylor Sheridan is saying goodbye to the megahit franchise. Deadline first reported on a spin-off series starring Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser, who will reprise their roles as Beth Dutton and Rip Wheeler in an as-yet-untitled series. It’s just the latest spin-off announced to join the Sheridanverse (you can check out our guide to streaming every Taylor Sheridan show).

The show’s finale is sure to be full of surprises and perhaps some guest cameos – the latest episode featured an appearance from Bella Hadid as none other than the girlfriend of Taylor Sheridan’s character, Travis Wheatley.
Is Yellowstone On Paramount+?
The short answer is no. Yellowstone airs on Paramount Network, a basic cable channel that is distinct from Paramount+. That means the best way to watch Yellowstone when it airs is with a live-streaming service that carries Paramount Network, such as Philo, DirecTV Stream, Sling, or Hulu + Live TV. At $28/mo, Philo is one of the most affordable options that includes Paramount Network, (though you won’t find local channels).
Another affordable option is Sling, which starts at $40/mo. To watch Paramount Network, you’ll want the $6/mo Entertainment Extra package. However, Sling does not offer a free trial. Other live streaming services, such as Hulu + Live TV and DirecTV Stream start at around $80/mo but have more channels.
Where To Stream Yellowstone
Every previous season of Yellowstone is on Peacock, NBCUniversal’s streaming service.
It may seem confusing that a show from the parent company of CBS would be available on rival NBC’s streaming service, but Peacock secured the streaming rights to Yellowstone before the creation of Paramount+. Unsurprisingly, Peacock has held on tight to Yellowstone given its success.
Every season of the show, including Season 5, Part 1 is available to stream on Peacock. However, episodes typically don’t hit the streamer until months later, and that’ll be the case with Season 5, Part 2, as well.
To promote the show, Yellowstone has also teamed up with a slew of brands on merch, including a collaboration with western boot brand Ariat, which was designed by Yellowstone’s costume designer Johnetta Boone.
