1883 is sadly not getting a second season, but we’ve got some exciting news for those who don’t have Paramount+. The Western drama and prequel to the popular series Yellowstone is coming to Paramount Network on Sunday (June 18).

More from Billboard


The limited series originally premiered last year, with the final episode airing in February 2022. Paramount+ subscribers already got the chance to dive into the history of the conniving Dutton family, but for those of you who want to get acquainted with the show, now’s your chance to meet the Dutton family’s ancestors. The Paramount Network will premiere 1883 this Sunday at 8 p.m. ET with consecutive episodes airing every Sunday.


If you can’t get enough of the Dutton family (especially with season 5 of Yellowstone being its last), travel back in time to the year 1883 — hence the title of the prequel. The story takes place during the post-Civil War period and follows the Dutton family as they flee poverty in Texas and journey through the Great Plains in search of a better life in Montana.


Real-life couple and country stars Tim McGraw and Faith Hill star as James and Margaret Dutton with other costars including Sam Elliott as tough cowboy Shea Brennan. The cast also includes Isabel May, LaMonica Garrett, Dawn Olivieri and Billy Bob Thornton.
