I shouldn’t pre-empt my sadness for fictional TV characters, but I’ll be devastated when Yellowstone spinoff Dutton Ranch comes to an end on July 3.
My expectations weren’t low, but the new Paramount+ series has hugely exceeded them. Beth (Kelly Reilly) and Rip’s (Cole Hauser) dogged loyalty to each other and their shared life gets more satisfying to watch by the minute, and their move to Rio Paloma feels like the clean break from Montana that they sorely needed.
The 10 Petal ranch is also growing on me, too. Clearly Rob-Will (Jai Courtney) is an absolutely psychopath, but matriarch Beulah (Annette Bening) definitely isn’t the villain that she was originally made out to be. With Dutton Ranch episode 7 now on the horizon, it’s implied that there are still more secrets in the Jackson family than meet the eye.
Luckily for us, star Berto Colón, who plays Miguel on the hit series, has confirmed that I’m correct… so strap in for exactly what we should expect across Dutton Ranch episodes 7-9.
‘I’m excited for people’s reactions to seeing what’s really going on’
Watch On
“Rip and Beth are on a collision course with Beulah, and there are things that are going to be revealed in the coming weeks,” Colón begins. “The Jackson family has some secrets. That final scene with Beth and Beulah in episode 6 is a teaser to what’s coming next.
“The power move that the couple make to unite with the Jacksons means there will be some revelations about the things that have kept the ranch going. I’m excited for people’s reactions to what’s really going on. It’s explosive.”
If what’s to come is explosive, then what does that mean for what we’ve already seen? From Beth and Rip losing their entire herd of cattle to foot and mouth disease to Carter (Finn Little) being caught up in a police raid with an illegally bought leopard, the series so far hasn’t exactly been relaxing.
“Rob-Will is another big one,” Colón continues. “There’s more to be revealed as far as how the family came to be. “Hold on to your seats… it’s gonna be quite a wild ride with everyone involved.”
If Dutton Ranch is on the trajectory that I think it is, we could be looking at peak Yellowstone levels of chaos and cliffhangers. I’ve been missing Taylor Sheridan as a showrunner for the most part, but maybe this is when my mind will be changed for good.
