Here's Where You Can Stream Yellowstone Season 5 Online

Fans of the Paramount Network's hits series "Yellowstone" are tying up their boots and straightening their hats as the premiere of Season 5 is set to air on Sunday, November 13. The series, which stars Kevin Costner, follows an influential cattle ranching family who struggles with an ongoing battle for land borders. The show's popularity is no longer in question, as Variety reports that its Season 4 finale roped in over 10 million viewers earlier this year, which is an incredible 81% increase compared to Season 3's conclusion.

Of course, when it comes to "Yellowstone" Season 5, fans can watch episodes as they premiere on the Paramount Network. For those who want to stream the series online (including the new season), it seems that Paramount+ would be the obvious location for viewing. However, this is surprisingly not the case. Fans may be scratching their heads, wondering why the streaming service that boasts the same name as the network doesn't offer one of its most highly-rated series for convenient viewing. Well, believe it or not, if you miss the original airings of each "Yellowstone" episode, the place to stream it is actually located in an unexpected place.

"Yellowstone" Season 5 will be premiering on Sunday, November 13, followed by weekly new episodes on the Paramount Network. USA Today reports that the new season will provide 14 episodes, split into seven-episode halves. However, despite viewers rightly believing these episodes, along with past installments, are available to stream on Paramount+, the actual home belongs to NBC's streaming channel, Peacock. The reason for this is that NBC Universal purchased the streaming rights to this series, granting it exclusive access for "Yellowstone" fans. So, that means that the only opportunity for streaming fans to follow the Dutton family as they do whatever it takes to hang onto their land (as well as their integrity) is to view it using the colorfully-feathered online channel.

For TV viewers who want to not only have a chance to go back and watch previous chapters of Paramount Network's "Yellowstone," but also stream the current Season 5, a Peacock subscription is needed. Currently, a $4.99/month fee (or $49.99/year) will give you access to the series, along with countless other titles. For those who would prefer to avoid a subscription, the series is available for purchase at $1.99 per episode, or $19.99 for an entire season on Amazon Prime Video.
