Roush Review: Rip and Beth Take on Texas in ‘Dutton Ranch’
Beth and Rip restart their cattle business on a sprawling Texas ranch as rival owner Beulah Jackson emerges as a new threat.
- Dutton Ranch premieres Friday, May 15, 2026, on Paramount+ and Paramount Network, following Beth Dutton and her husband, Rip, as they relocate to Texas after burning their Montana farm.
- Following a wildfire that destroyed their Montana home, the narrative jumps six months into the future, finding the family settled at the Edwards Ranch in Rio Paloma, Texas, near the U.S.-Mexico border.
- Beth and Rip face a new rivalry with local landowner Beulah Jackson, played by Annette Bening, who manages the sprawling 10 Petal Ranch and whose family is scrambling to cover up a murder.
- Unlike the original Yellowstone, the series emphasizes daily ranching work over political intrigue, featuring a more tempered version of Beth despite executive producer Taylor Sheridan's absence from the writers room.
- Showrunner Chad Feehan was fired last month after reportedly clashing with cast members, yet the series remains similar to Yellowstone in tone, offering viewers more of the characters they ostensibly love.
