Yellow stone for sure!!

Neither
 

Unless you enjoy filthy language don't watch either I would love to watch just terrible language what is this world coming to

Two pages of the same answer. Characters from 1883 aren't in Yellowstone so there is no "development" of characters

I watched the first episode of Yellowstone a while ago (a year?) and was bored to tears so I didn’t continue. 1883 came and I watched every episode and was wowed. Now I am watching Y with a better appreciation for the characters and I am not finding it so boring. But as others have commented, it doesn’t really matter which you watch first!

I’ve watched both and really don’t think it matters. They are really completely different. I understand a new one is coming out, but can’t remember the name. Both are good, but I liked Yellowstone better.

There is nothing about either that would matter which one you watch first. More episodes of Yellowstone are available now. 1883 gets released each week.

1932.
 

The new one is 1932. 1932 News, Cast, Premiere Date - Everything We Know About the Yellowstone Prequel 1932

Yellowstone first then prequel 1883.
 

Both are great but I preferred Yellowstone and now 1883. It will help understand the battle to keep their land.

To wrap up season 3 explosive finale of characters getting attacked to see what happened to the Duttons, watch Season 4 of Yellowstone first, then watch 1883. Soon there will also be another related show called 1932. Enjoy!!

I have been watching both. It does not matter which series you watch first.

Yellowstone has completed it's 4th season. I think it was about the 3rd season that I asked myself "How did this ranch get started in the first place." Now 1883 is answering that question.

Yellowstone

Hey! Nope. It was Post #49. You made me look again though. Checked both the old and new versions of TOTV. Oh well, the mystery continues.

I still like Yellowstone first better. But if this whole thing is sounding good to you, just go ahead and make a commitment to getting started. Warning: You could get hooked.

You say 48. I say 49. Don’t worry. I will not go all “Beth Dutton” on you.

The Dutton characters are cut from a different cloth than probably most people, who would have taken the fortune they were offered and gone on to a different kind of life without their land. But the Duttons stay and fight constant battles in a war that seems to be allowing only a series of temporary victories. The Duttons keep doing allllll kinds of things to hold on.

Then there are the family dynamics that can feel kind of Shakespearean sometimes.

When you later see 1883, it shows what the previous generations of Duttons were made of, too.

Tough bunch. . .Nature? Nurture?

To the posters who commented on the foul language: I am not a prude, BUT, I certainly agree that the constant reaching for that type of language gets old pretty quick. I think it turns into a distraction because it is too much. I don’t know why writers think they have to do that constantly — and then some more.

Of course, certain characters are never going to say, “Aw, shucks” or “Phooey” — that would be really bad writing.

But so many writers go over the top with “the word.” It is like ruining a perfectly grilled steak with way too much salt. I wish they would get a good editing. Some — OK. Every other word — not OK. But it does not keep me from watching a good storyline.

The best parts!
