The Paramount TV show Yellowstone is currently filming its fifth season and has been a fan favorite since day one.
The show, starring Kevin Costner, sparked a prequel 1883, which stars country music royalty Tim McGraw and Faith Hil. But Yellowstone features a constant soundtrack of country music featuring songs from McGraw, Chris Stapleton, and many more. Not to mention the poster of Miranda Lambert that hangs on the door of the "bunk house" at Yellowstone, where so many great scenes and story plots take place.
Watching the show, it's easy to fall in love with many of the characters, and it's also easy to hate some of them for their dirty deeds.
We rank our favorite Top 10 characters of what is being called the best cowboy soap opera to hit television since Dallas first premiered in the early 1980s.
