Drama hit "Yellowstone" is set to return to Paramount Network

MTV Entertainment Studios confirmed Paramount Network’s series, "Yellowstone's" return scheduled for Sunday, 7th November. ​In addition, Paramount+, the streaming service from ViacomCBS, announced the service’s upcoming series, "Mayor of Kingstown" and "1883" – the Yellowstone origin story – will premiere on Sunday, 14 November, and Sunday, 19 December, respectively.

“Our strategy is to make Yellowstone, the massive # 1 hit with more than 10 million fans, into a global hit franchise under the incredible creative vision of Taylor Sheridan’s world-building storytelling,” said Chris McCarthy, President and CEO, MTV Entertainment. “These new series will debut on Paramount+ and have special premiere day sneak episodes behind Yellowstone, introducing this huge audience to these new stories, allowing us to leverage our linear platforms to fuel the growth of Paramount+, which will stream each series exclusively after episode two.”

The new season of Yellowstone will also serve as a launch pad for the new series "Mayor of Kingstown" and "1883." Paramount Network will air a special simulcast event for both Mayor of Kingstown and 1883 following Yellowstone to promote the new series. “We are thrilled to present these shows as part of this newly established Taylor Sheridan universe that has grown and expanded beyond our greatest expectations,” said David Glasser, CEO of 101 Studios. “Taylor has proven time and time again his powerful ability to tell riveting stories that are rich with passion, drama and adventure and entertain audiences everywhere. Additionally, the fall is an incredible landscape for television, bringing in the strongest viewer availability. ViacomCBS has remained a phenomenal partner to us over the years and this showcases the network’s confidence in all of our shows.”

As part of Sheridan’s deal with MTV Entertainment and ViacomCBS, "Mayor of Kingstown" and "1883" are the first from his exclusive multi-year pact, which includes scripted and procedural series for streaming and linear. 101 Studios serves as a production partner on all series. “Mayor of Kingstown and 1883 are perfect examples of the types of prestige dramas we focus on bringing to Paramount+,” said Tanya Giles, Chief Programming Officer, ViacomCBS Streaming. “Taylor Sheridan is an exceptional talent, and we are thrilled to be expanding his portfolio of series within the ViacomCBS family. With the special simulcast event of both series on Paramount Network, we will further tap into the scale and reach of ViacomCBS to bring audiences to Paramount+.”
