The Marshals is a new Yellowstone spin-off airing on CBS (but don’t drop Paramount Plus — it’ll stream there too). 

Luke Grimes reprises his role as Kayce Dutton in the Yellowstone sequel series. The former Navy SEAL joins an elite unit of US Marshals to bring range justice to Montana, according to a synopsis from CBS. In addition to Grimes, the show includes Yellowstone actors Gil Birmingham as Thomas Rainwater, Mo Brings Plenty as Mo and Brecken Merrill as Tate. Spencer Hudnut is the showrunner of Marshals — formerly known as Y: Marshals — and Taylor Sheridan is an executive producer. 

When to watch the Marshals premiere on Paramount Plus

In addition to airing on CBS on Sunday, March 1, the premiere of Marshals will stream on Paramount Plus — and the subscription tier you have matters. You can watch the first episode live with Paramount Plus Premium, which includes your local CBS station. If you subscribe to Paramount Plus Essential, you can watch the premiere on demand the following Monday, but not live on Sunday. 

Here’s a clear breakdown of how to watch the first four episodes of Marshals.

• Episode 1, Piya Wiconi: Premieres on CBS/Paramount Plus Premium on March 1 at 8 p.m. ET/8 p.m. PT/7 p.m. CT. Streams on Paramount Plus Essential on March 2.
• Episode 2, Zone of Death: Premieres on CBS/Paramount Plus Premium on March 8 at 8 p.m. ET/8 p.m. PT/7 p.m. CT. Streams on Paramount Plus Essential on March 9.
• Episode 3, Road to Nowhere: Premieres on CBS/Paramount Plus Premium on March 15 at 8 p.m. ET/8 p.m. PT/7 p.m. CT. Streams on Paramount Plus Essential on March 16.
• Episode 4, The Gathering Storm: Premieres on CBS/Paramount Plus Premium on March 22 at 8 p.m. ET/8 p.m. PT/7 p.m. CT. Streams on Paramount Plus Essential on March 23.

You can also watch CBS and the first episode of Marshals without cable with a live TV streaming service such as YouTube TV, Hulu Plus Live TV or the DirecTV MyNews skinny bundle. In addition to being a lower-cost option, Paramount Plus allows you to watch the other two Yellowstone spin-offs — the prequels 1883 and 1923.

After a price increase in early 2026, the ad-supported Essential version runs $9 per month or $90 per year, and the ad-free Premium version runs $14 per month or $140 per year. Paying more for Premium gives you downloads, the ability to watch more Showtime programming than Essential and — as mentioned — access to your live, local CBS station.
