1923

This series is simply amazing! The continuation springboarding from the 1883 series. Every single cast member is believable and I felt as though I was right there with them in every scene. Helen Mirren has long been a favorite of mine and she does not disappoint. Harrison Ford does an outstanding job of portraying his part as well. The rest of the cast compliments each other so well. The many lives and stories expertly intertwined into a masterpiece. 1883 and 1923 will be rewatched often in this house. These prequels to Yellowstone have been carefully thought out. Each detail meticulous in its execution.

I generally like Sheridan's because they present multiple viewpoints, we don't necessarily have to agree with. 1883 was a knockout, for story-telling, history, and character development.

1923 would have been even better than 1883 if not for the gratuitous snuff porn. I'm not talking about the usual sexual violence women face from day to day, as reasonably portrayed in this series, but about Whitman's appetites specifically.

We already know Whitman is a sociopath without any boundaries or redeeming features. Negatives about any character are easy to portray offscreen (assuming they are even necessary). Filming the snuff-porn and giving viewers no option to view a less offensive version does absolutely nothing to advance the plot, or improve the Sheridan brand.

1923 hooked me right from the start! It was so much fun to dive back into the Dutton world, especially during such a fascinating time period. The show juggled multiple storylines, but they all felt equally interesting. And let me tell you, I was obsessed with Alex and Spencer! Their chemistry was undeniable, and I was rooting for them the entire season. By the end, I was practically glued to the screen willing them to get together.

If you're a fan of compelling characters, intricate plots, and a dash of romance, you don't wanna miss 1923. It's a fantastic continuation of the Dutton family saga!

1923 is the next prequel to Yellowstone after 1883 and like those two shows this is just as incredible! As a huge fan of those two shows I was really looking forward to this and it did not disappoint! It continues to follow the Dutton family and show how they created the Yellowstone ranch. This obviously takes place in 1923 during prohibition and the Great Depression. It's another gritty western from Taylor Sheridan. Sheridan is one of the best things going on television right now, everything he touches turns to gold. Just look at his resume (Yellowstone, 1883, Mayor of Kingstown, Tulsa King, Sicario, Hell or High Water, etc.). Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren lead an amazing cast who are all at their best here. I can't wait until Season 2 comes out and I'd be shocked if this show doesn't end up winning numerous awards.

Almost everything about this shows predecessor was perfect. Hard to follow on the heels of that. This does an okay job, but it's clearly plotted for something much, much longer. And the stakes are entirely different. In 8 long episodes, probably 4 episodes of things happen. It has some pretty great moments, but it is spinning its wheels in favour of a very slow burn, which is unfortunate. Setting the bar so high and trying to clear it an entirely different way is not the best foot forward,

It's far from bad though. It's the contrast that hurts it. There's still great performances, thankfully. The sometimes? Return of the narrator of 1883 is very welcome too. The new characters seem well situated. It just feels a bit toothless, to me.
