While Taylor Sheridan\u2019s adoration for all things <a href=\"https:\/\/www.countryliving.com\/life\/travel\/a71141653\/fort-worth-things-to-do\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Fort Worth;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Fort Worth&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Fort Worth<\/a> and the Permian Basin is clear as day from Jimmy\u2019s transfer to the Four Sixes and Landman\u2019s entire plotline, the Southern destination doesn\u2019t make sense for the continuation of the Yellowstone universe\u2014or so fans think. After all, the Yellowstone series finale suggested that Beth and Rip moved to a ranch in Dillon, Montana, not to be confused with Dillon, Texas (the fictional town from Friday Night Lights). This all begs one prominent question\u2026<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cDoes anyone know the storyline as to why they relocated to Texas? After Kayce sold the Yellowstone back to the Broken Rock Tribe, Beth had bought another ranch in Montana,\u201d one fan commented on the official Dutton Ranch trailer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As of right now, it\u2019s unclear why Beth and Rip uprooted their lives in Montana to move to Texas with Carter in tow. What we do know is that they bought a ranch in Texas, where new drama seems to be waiting to unfold. So, if their goal was to escape their storied past and infamous reputations in Montana, a move alone might not do the trick. While that\u2019s unfortunate for them\u2014a couple in love, just trying to build a future together\u2014it\u2019s a blessing for viewers near and far. Who knows what kind of chaos awaits!<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cIt has the best parts of what I loved about Yellowstone,\u201d director Greg Yaitanes told <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/dutton-ranch-marshals-spider-noir-director-greg-yaitanes-interview\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Collider;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Collider&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Collider<\/a> back in March. \u201c&#8230;A lot of the people involved with Dutton Ranch really felt like they were making Yellowstone Season 6.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Considering Beth is seen toting a rifle, Rip stumbles upon a buried body, and there are multiple fiery montages (both figuratively and literally) in the trailer, it\u2019s safe to say we\u2019re all in for an attention-grabbing 2-hour television event on Friday, May 15.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">You Might Also Like<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 2-episode premiere of Dutton Ranch will be here before we know it, but fans can\u2019t contain their&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":287162,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[105343,105344,29534,86454,1474,27,29,28],"class_list":["post-287161","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-texas","tag-beth","tag-dillon","tag-dutton-ranch","tag-montana","tag-south-texas","tag-texas","tag-texas-headlines","tag-texas-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/287161","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=287161"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/287161\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/287162"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=287161"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=287161"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=287161"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
