The Yellowstone TV universe isn’t all housed on one streaming service. Peacock has had the streaming rights to Yellowstone since 2020, but Paramount has made up for this confusing absence by creating two original spinoff series exclusively for Paramount+. Select seasons of Yellowstone, 1883, and 1923 have aired on linear TV channels to fill out programming calendars and get more eyes on the streaming-exclusive shows.

There are at least three more Yellowstone spinoffs down the pipeline as well. The Madison, a modern-day spinoff starring Michelle Pfeiffer, is currently filming. The 6666 spinoff is still up in the air, but there are still some details we know about how to watch if/when it comes to fruition. And there’s another prequel, 1944, in the works. But like 6666, those updates have been few and far between since Paramount first announced it.

To make things easy for you, here’s a breakdown of where, when, and how to watch the preexisting Yellowstone spinoffs on TV and streaming services, plus details about where the upcoming spinoffs are set to debut. There are more options than just subscribing to Paramount+.

Is Yellowstone on Paramount+?

No, Yellowstone Seasons 1-5 (Part 1) are only available to stream on Peacock. Yellowstone Season 5 Part 2 will be added to Peacock on March 16. All previous episodes, as well as the new ones from Season 5 Part 2 (currently airing Sundays on Paramount Network), can be purchased on Amazon. Get a full breakdown here. Season 5 Part 1 is also available for purchase on Blu-ray and DVD. The Season 5 Part 2 Blu-ray and DVD set will be available for purchase starting May 27.

CBS aired the early seasons of Yellowstone in 2023. It also aired an encore showing of the Season 5 Part 2 premiere on Sunday, November 10.

Spencer Dutton, seen as an adult in 1923, was not born yet in the 1883 storyline, but he was seen as a child in the Yellowstone Season 4 episode.
