Written 3 months ago: I just finished Season 1 of Yellowstone and realized Costner's character, Dutton, ordered 2 executions, 1 each in Episodes 1 and 4. So he is like a Mafia don. That plus the sleaziness of his daughter Beth on the show is disturbing. This show is seen around the world. I shudder when I think what the world must believe about American women, especially those of Montana.
Years ago when I worked for the airlines and lived in Chicago, those I met overseas would mimic a machine gun when I told 1them I lived in Chicago. They connected that city w the TV show The Untouchables.
Yellowstone is America's first national park. People around the world want to come visit it. There are ranchers in that area who are hardworking folks who care about the environment too. And concessionaires who want to share the beautiful outdoors w our nation and the world.
I did some wildlife fieldwork at University of Montana in Missoula years ago radio-tracking grizzly bears and pronghorn antelope. Gorgeous country. It is a sad tragedy for the world to think the word Yellowstone refers to American decadent values (of a few) rather than the triumph of America to designate the Yellowstone region as the first national park in the entire world, leading the way for other countries. I wish the series writer, Taylor Sheridan, would keep our national heritage foremost in his mind in the days ahead.
