Early this summer, Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren were supposed to head back to Montana for another season of 1923. But as Yellowstone Season Five went on hiatus (possibly forever!), the midseason break for the extended Dutton family spread as well.

According to Deadline, filming for the second season of 1923 has been "delayed indefinitely." Paramount paused production due to the WGA writers strike, which very well may be joined by the impending SGA actors strike. The delay means that we won't see any new Yellowstone content—from any spinoff or timeline in the Dutton family history—for a long time.

As Kevin Costner muddied up Yellowstone's future, 1923 was a rare cultural success. The premiere episode broke records for Paramount+ with over 7.4 million viewers tuning in. The cowboy drama has gone back in time once again to explain how the fight for this particular plot of Montana land began, and it brought along some big A-list names in Ford and Mirren. They star alongside Timothy Dalton, Brandon Sklenar, Michelle Randolph, and Game of Thrones's Jerome Flynn. 1923 also followed the ancestry of Black Rock Reservation Chief Thomas Rainwater, as well as a Dutton family member named Spencer who hunts big game in Africa. Saddle up, because it’s about to get rough out in Paradise Valley.

When and Where Did 1923 Premiere?

The first episode of 1923 premiered on the Paramount Network on Sunday, December 18, 2022 following an episode of Yellowstone—but the rest of the series streamed weekly on Paramount+. The first season then ran through February 2023 with another four episodes before the cast returns to film Season Two. That said, you can now purchase 1923 Season One on Amazon Prime Video, or watch it with a Paramount+ subscription.

What Is Happening on 1923 So Far?

Following a shootout with sheep herder Banner Creighton (Flynn), the Dutton family took on some major casualties. 1883's James Dutton (Tim McGraw) eventually passed the Yellowstone ranch onto his brother, Jacob (Harrison Ford) and his wife Cara (Helen Mirren), but now they need even more help to protect their land from those who wish to take it for their own. Before the break, Cara reached out to her nephew, Spencer (Brandon Sklenar), about returning home to help the family. The World War I veteran and African big game hunter must now brave an adventure to return to his family in Montana.

Where Can I Get Caught Up on Yellowstone?

This is where it gets tricky. For some reason, Yellowstone Seasons One through Four are only available to stream on Peacock. Season Five, is only available to stream on the Paramount Network app with a cable-subscription login. Meanwhile, the spinoff shows 1883 and 1923 will only be available to Paramount+ subscribers. Paramount+ is also home to Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan’s other shows, including Tulsa King and Mayor of Kingstown, but both series exist outside of the Yellowstone universe of shows. A bit confusing, for better or worse—but hopefully we helped.
