10 TV Shows to Stream When You've Finished Watching Yellowstone

Justified just might be the paragon of the "modern Western" subgenre that Yellowstone also embraces. A U.S. Marshal with a controversial and old-school style gets reassigned to his Kentucky hometown, forcing him to confront the parts of his past that made him who he is and that he thought he'd escaped for good.

One of the major threads in Yellowstone is the conflict between Native Americans and the descendants of white settlers. Longmire also touches on these tensions, following a small-town Wyoming sheriff's department that alternately allies with and clashes with tribal police.

Take Yellowstone's Western action drama, set it in space, and you've basically got The Mandalorian! The Star Wars spinoff follows a bounty hunter who's tasked with retrieving a "target" that turns out to be a Force-sensitive child. Instead of delivering the Child to his nefarious employers, he goes on the run, dealing with the lawless regions of the galaxy and Imperial remnants hell-bent on capturing the Child and its powers.

Yellowstone's drama doesn't just come from its locals-vs-outsiders conflict, but from major conflict within the central family. That's the same sort of storyline you'll find on The Son, which follows multiple generations of a Texas oil family, especially the conflict between the tough patriarch and his rebellious son.

Just as Yellowstone centres on the messy, often contentious relationships among the Dutton family, Animal Kingdom features another complicated with some crime drama along the way. The show follows the Cody family, who run a drug operation out of a California beach town, and, like the Duttons, they fight among themselves but often stick together in the face of major outside threats.

On the surface, Breaking Bad doesn't seem to have much in common with Yellowstone other than a vaguely Western-inspired aesthetic, but they've got more to link them than you might think at first. Both have complicated inter-generational relationships, antihero fathers, and dark and twisty crime at the centre of the drama.

Swap in "land war" with "biker gang turf wars" and it's easy to see the parallels between Yellowstone and Sons of Anarchy. The drama about a motorcycle gang's external and internal conflicts touches on many of the same themes as Yellowstone: family loyalties, notions of masculinity, and a tough, us-vs-them mentality.

Watch Sons of Anarchy on Hulu.

If the rural drama and tangled family dynamics are your favourite parts of Yellowstone, then Ozark should be next on your to-watch list. The show follows a couple who have to move to rural Missouri to fulfil the terms of a job laundering drug cartel money, and the intricate personal conflict is just as compelling as the tense crime drama.

If you enjoy the standoff tensions of Yellowstone, you'll definitely like Godless. The miniseries centres on a betrayal within a crime gang in the Wild West: one member of the gang betrays the leader and flees to a mining town run by women, who band together to protect him and take down the brutal outlaws once and for all.
