The Father
christa-pelc22 February 2023
Always appreciate seeing the "father" side of a rough, tough cowboy. A real man spends time with his family, cares for his family. And that's John Dutton - the fighting man who melts when his little girl hurts.

Also, I'm glad to see Beth's positive changes as she deals with her past trauma. Rip is another real man - tough when he needs to be & so tender and loving with his woman.

Good to see the characters in the bunk house, too. A fun, hard-working bunch, each with their own vibrant personality. A great bunch of actors & each a master at his own role. I'm excited to see the stories continue in the next episodes!

Showing the ranch more , new windows, ahhh Jamie.

First of all Chief Joseph is liking this episode from heaven. Love the acting from the family room , Rip driving scene was cool. Bunk house was laid back. Kasey and his guys in a shoot out. John Dutton showing he still could kick some butt in front of people. Beth , Jamie , Jimmy all stand out as good supporting charactors.

Have they lost their way?
trudjoh3 August 2020
I love this show but feel it has lost its way a bit. The acting just doesn't seem as intense as it was before. The Dutton family is disappearing in front of me.

So much feels.

Was it just me, or did anyone else think John and Jamie would have a good ole fashioned beatdown, thanks to the title of the episode? Haha. Jokes aside, that scene at the end between Jamie and John was something special. Also, that scene between Beth and John where he apologises for her not thinking that she could go to him if she were in any trouble... just right in the heart! I watched this episode last week so I can't remember if that Beth and John scene was in this or the episode before, but nonetheless, this season is really hitting me in the feels. I love it!

The Beating
bobcobb30116 August 2020
Warning: Spoilers
It feels like every week they force these emotional moments with the siblings and yet they're never any good. They're trying to turn their family into some Shakespearan classic, when it just isn't. It's generic primetime TV in-fighting.

Going down hill fast
jeffmcleo4 August 2020
Season 1 was amazing Season 2 accomplished Season 3 painful. The writers have lost the edge the earlier seasons demonstrated. Storyline is lacking direction and substance

More empty guffery
rabbitmoon26 September 2022
Just three episodes left after this and STILL nothing is really going besides soap-opera shenanigans with awkwardly shoe-horned action set-pieces that go absolutely nowhere. All that stuff about the livestock agent killing those guys before, all wrapped up with no repercussions. Jimmy getting absolutely quadrospazzed, now is walking around perfectly fine. Girl goes missing - big storyline! Oh no, she dead, end of. Random shootout with shotgun-through-door (straight from Sheridan's Wind River, like he's not even trying anymore), Kayce doesn't even check the trailer to clear it! Dutton moping about with his gravelly overwritten wisdoms and absolutely NOTHING to do. He says here that he's tired - yeah, you and me both buddy! This stuff is tedious as hell. But it's ok - because there are still thrilling scenes here like Jamie waiting in an office, an irritating back-seat passenger and Rip kicking a tyre. Woohoo! Also today I learned that you can lasso the head of a driver of a travelling car through an open window, who knew? This season was clearly churned out for the sake of commercial longevity, there's no point or soul to this season at all.
