Yes. Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2 (also called Season 5B) ends the original series. The wider franchise continues in Dutton Ranch, a separate series centered on Beth Dutton and Rip Wheeler—not Yellowstone Season 6.
Does Yellowstone end after Season 5, Part 2?
Yes. Paramount’s official catalog lists the original Yellowstone as Seasons 1–5B, with 53 episodes total. It dates the Season 5B premiere to November 10, 2024. The numbered run ends at 5B, so Part 2 is the end of the original television series.
Is there a Yellowstone Season 6?
No Season 6 of the original series is established by Paramount’s catalog. The continuation is titled Dutton Ranch, a distinct series rather than a sixth season of Yellowstone.
What continues in Dutton Ranch?
Dutton Ranch stars Kelly Reilly as Beth Dutton and Cole Hauser as Rip Wheeler. Paramount describes them trying to build a future away from Yellowstone while facing a rival ranch in South Texas. The story carries those two characters forward, but it is not presented as a continuation of the original show’s season numbering, and the announcement does not establish that the entire original cast returns.
#1 Best Overall
Paramount announced a nine-episode first season. Its March 23, 2026 announcement set a May 15, 2026 premiere on Paramount+ and a Paramount Network airing beginning that day at 8 p.m. ET/PT; it said two episodes would premiere on Paramount+ and subsequent episodes would arrive weekly. These are the announced release plans, not a guarantee that the series is currently available in every country.
