Taylor Sheridan Not Making Kelly Reilly’s Beth Interact With A Major Yellowstone Character After 5 Seasons Is The Epitome Of Bad Writing

If family drama and land battles are your cup of tea, then Yellowstone has a feast ready for you. At the eye of this storm is the Dutton family, where Kayce and Beth share DNA but very little else. While Kayce and Monica’s relationship overflow with love and shared parenting of their son, Rip and Beth’s saga could fuel a melodrama with its complications and history.

But wait…what about the elephant in the room: the rocky rapport between Beth and Kayce?

Cue the critique: “It’s just sh*t writing”, lamented one fan, pleading for more substantial interactions between these estranged siblings. Could Taylor Sheridan’s narrative decisions be driving a wedge deeper, or is this just a simmering pot waiting to boil over? Is this a deliberate storyline choice or a missed storytelling opportunity?

What Yellowstone Fans Want: More Meaningful Moments Between Beth & Kayce

When it comes to Yellowstone, the drama is as thick as a Montana dust storm. And while Kayce and Beth Dutton are siblings who share a last name, their relationship is more of a family feud than a family reunion—filled with tension, confusion, and interactions as rare as a unicorn sighting.

The Dutton sibling duo’s relationship is like a simmering pot of beef stew—lots of heat, but not much warmth. We can also say that their limited interactions are often more of a clash than a cuddle.

Fans have been chomping at the bit for some meaningful sibling interaction between Beth and Kayce. This is because most of their exchanges are brief and charged, often boiling down to confrontations rather than heart-to-heart moments. This lack of depth in their relationship has had fans grumbling, suggesting that the show’s creators might have missed the mark on what could have been a gripping storyline.

They lament the lack of substantial, engaging interactions between Beth and Kayce, musing that it might be due to either a deliberate choice to keep things edgy or just plain poor storytelling. Either way, the absence of a meaningful sibling dynamic is a glaring oversight in a show that otherwise thrives on family drama and high stakes.

Luke Grimes Keeps His Cool Amid Yellowstone Cliffhangers

As Yellowstone barrels toward its series finale later this year, you might think Luke Grimes would be on tenterhooks about the fate of his character, Kayce Dutton. But the actor shared his laid-back attitude with PEOPLE before the SAG-AFTRA strike kicked off. “Here’s the thing with Yellowstone and my character: Hope doesn’t happen,” Grimes said, tossing aside any illusions of crystal-ball predictions for his character’s future. Continuing, he said:

I just learned to take it as it comes, and that’s it.

The end of Season 4 saw a storm of drama: Jamie Dutton (Wes Bentley) taking the ultimate family feud to the next level by offing his biological father, Garrett Randall (Will Patton), who was behind a deadly hit on the Duttons. Meanwhile, Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly) and Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser) had a whirlwind wedding in a spur-of-the-moment ceremony, and Kayce Dutton reemerged from a soul-searching odyssey that spanned four days and nights.

Fans eager to see how all these tangled threads will knit together may have to wait a bit longer. Grimes noted that:

We have not [started filming the second half of Season 5] because of the writers strike. I think we would be if it weren’t for that. But that takes precedence over everything. They got to get that all sorted, and then we’ll be getting after it.

So while Yellowstone fans are left twiddling their thumbs, Grimes remains unruffled, proving that sometimes it’s best to saddle up and ride with the punches. The second part of Yellowstone Season 5 will air on November 10, 2024.
