  • Yellowstone, a massively popular show starring Kevin Costner, will be airing on CBS in its linear programming due to the ongoing actors’ and writers’ strike impacting the Fall season.
  • The Duttons’ adventures will continue on September 17 at 8:30 PM, as CBS has set the premiere date for the series on broadcast television.
  • It remains to be seen if the dedicated Yellowstone-verse fans will tune in to watch the show in its new prime time slot.

Back in July, CBS decided it would air Yellowstone in its linear programming. Since this Fall season will be impacted by the ongoing actors’ and writers’ strike, it makes sense for a massively popular show to get a prime time slot – we’ll just have to see if Yellowstone-verse fans will tune in to watch the Duttons’ adventures once again. We will know how the series fares on broadcast television next month: CBS set the premiere d ate for September 17 at 8:30 PM.

The premiere is likely to have good audience numbers, not only because of the series’ popularity, but because the show is set to follow the NFL on CBS Football doubleheader and 60 Minutes at 7:30 pm. The following weeks will provide a better picture of how well Yellowstone fares with wider audiences. If they respond to it, Paramount will see a new slate of fans come into the Yellowstone world, which could mean an even longer life for the slate of series.

Not that Paramount needs an extra boost in audience to keep the Dutton family affairs going. So far, the flagship series has already seen two spin-offs, with the third, Bass Reeves, already on track to premiere later this year. The series even managed to survive a major exit: After Kevin Costner dropped the show, series creator Taylor Sheridan announced that the Dutton legacy will survive with a follow-up series starring Matthew McConaughey.

Yellowstone centers around the life and legacy of the Dutton family and their control over a massive cattle ranch – which gives them a seat at the table of the most influential people in Montana. The series also tackles the appropriation by Caucasian folk of Indigenous territory, especially in its latest spin-off 1923 which stars Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford. CBS premieres Yellowstone on September 17. You can watch a trailer for Season 1 below.
