What Happened Last Season? (The Cliffhangers)
If you need a refresher—or if you’re new and wondering why everyone is stressed—here’s where we left off:
- Kayce’s son Tate (played by Brecken Merrill) was taken by rival rancher Tom Weaver (Chris Mulkey) on a "fishing trip" that was definitely not innocent
- Kayce’s teammates Cal (Logan Marshall-Green) and Belle (Arielle Kebbel) were cornered at gunpoint by Weaver’s henchmen
- Tom Weaver refuses to back down after Kayce refused to sell his land
SPOILER-FREE ZONE
So far, no official hints have been released about whether Tate, Cal, or Belle survive. The suspense is real!

FAQ: Your Burning Questions Answered
Is Marshals a sequel to Yellowstone?
Yes and no. It’s a spinoff—meaning it takes place in the same world and follows a character from Yellowstone (Kayce Dutton), but it tells its own story. You don’t have to watch Yellowstone first, but it helps!
Do I need to watch Season 1 before Season 2?
Highly recommended. Season 2 picks up right after major cliffhangers. You’ll be very confused (and missing out on the tension) if you skip it.
Will the show stay on CBS?
Yes! The premiere is on CBS, and the regular timeslot is also on CBS. No channel-hopping needed.
Why didn’t it get Emmy nominations?
Great question! Emmy voters often overlook Westerns and action-heavy shows, even when fans love them. Tulsa King (another Sheridan show) got the only nomination this year—for stunt performance. But ratings and renewals matter more than awards.
Where can I catch up on Season 1?
Check Paramount+ (the streaming home for most Taylor Sheridan shows) or CBS On Demand. Some episodes may also be available on Amazon Prime Video or Apple TV+ for purchase.
Happy watching, partners!
