Yellowstone may have ended, but its legacy lives on with Dutton Ranch. The newest program to expand Taylor Sheridan‘s TV universe stars Cole Hauser and Kelly Reilly, who return to their fan favorite roles as Rip Wheeler and Beth Dutton in the sequel series. 

Dutton Ranch follows Rip and Beth as they escape a tragedy and move to Texas. They soon discover that running a ranching business here will pose all sorts of problems. This may not be Yellowstone, but it’s definitely Yellowstone-adjacent, which means trouble is never far behind. They quickly discover that doing business in Texas is a dangerous endeavor as a rival ranch brings a whole new mess to their doorstep. Needless to say, things are gonna get ugly.

The season is nearing its halfway point. With 12.9 million global views in its first week — making it the most-watched original series debut in Paramount Plus history — there’s a solid chance Dutton Ranch will be around for a while.

Starring alongside Hauser and Reilly are Annette Bening, Finn Little, Natalie Alyn Lind, Ed Harris, Jai Courtney, Juan Pablo Raba, Marc Menchaca and J.R. Villarreal.

How to watch Dutton Ranch with a VPN

If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with your favorite shows while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming. It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds, and it can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins.

VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security. However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN usage to access region-specific content. If you’re considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance.

ExpressVPN is our best VPN pick for people who want a reliable and safe VPN. The service is compatible with a variety of devices. It typically costs $13 a month, but if you sign up for an annual subscription for $100, you will get four months free and save 70%. Note that ExpressVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s installation instructions, ensuring you’re connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN usage is crucial.
