Do we still need to introduce Yellowstone, the phenomenally successful TV series that managed to revive the popularity of the Western in the general public?

The creator of the series takes revenge
The worst case is that of Taylor Sheridan. The creator of Yellowstone was originally destined for a career as an actor; But difficulties at the beginning of his career finally convinced him to devote himself to writing and directing. However, the latter did not completely leave the acting profession.
In Yellowstone, Taylor Sheridan lends his qualities to Travis Wheatley, a Texas cowboy who specializes in selling horses. This character only appeared in a few episodes, but his time is enough to make an impression.

Yellowstone and 1883, the connection between the two series!
Like Taylor Sheridan, other actors have appeared in several Yellowstone World productions. And especially Dawn Olivieri, who lends her features to Sarah Atwood, one of the main villains of the last season of the series.

It’s interesting to note that these connections between the various series in this universe do not apply to the 1923 prequel starring Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford. New Yellowstone series broadcasts may allow additional names to be added to this list.
