TheYellowstone TV universe isn’t all housed on one streaming service. Peacock has had the streaming rights toYellowstone since 2020, but Paramount has made up for this confusing absence by creating two original spinoff series exclusively for Paramount+. Seasons of Yellowstone and1883 have aired on linear TV channels to fill out programming calendars and get more eyes on the streaming-exclusive shows. 1923 will soon follow suit in December.
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. The6666 spinoff hasn’t shared an update in a long time, 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 like6666, 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+.

The first Yellowstone spinoff (which got a backdoor pilot inYellowstoneSeason 4) is a Paramount+ exclusive show, so the limited series can be watched at any time on that streaming platform.

The show tells the story of their family’s perilous journey west with children Elsa (Isabel May) and John (Audie Rick). Spencer Dutton, seen as an adult in 1923, was not born yet in the1883 storyline, but he was seen as a child in theYellowstone Season 4 episode.
