A land grab threatens to destroy the crumbling dynasty

Scenario

When the massive Lawson cattle station is left without an heir, rival factions in Australia see a chance to seize control. The series was filmed in the Northern Territory and South Australia, in remote locations that are barely inhabited—let alone on screen. Such locations include the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Kakadu National Park—with special permission from the traditional owners—and Tipperary Station, a real working cattle station so large it has its own airport and school.

39;s Yellowstone, set in the rugged outback of northern Australia!

And if that sounds both funny and a bit far-fetched, it is. It’s only been a few episodes and it’s already hit all the marks. Rabid bulls?

Even fighting back?

Yes. A tick. A crazy killer dingo (?!) The tackiness is sustained by some great performances, especially from the ever-reliable Anna Torv and the wonderful Robert Taylor, who here play a flabbier, meaner, and more misogynistic version of Kevin Costner.

I can't wait

The nature of Yellowstone. But the best feature is the scenery, which is as stunning as you are. I can't wait to finish this!
