‘Yellowstone’: How to watch every episode of the hit drama from anywhere


With its terrifying depiction of family legacy and the tide of change in the mountains of Montana, the Kevin Costner-led drama Yellowstone has become the biggest TV show of the century so far.

The neo-western revolves around the Dutton family and their sprawling ranch, a property that ensures they are in constant tension with hawkish developers, residents of the neighboring Broken Rock Indian Reservation and, naturally, nearby Yellowstone National Park.

Created by Taylor Sheridan, the show ran for five seasons and a series of spin-offs, with its final season premiere garnering an astounding audience of 16 million viewers, making it the most-watched linear TV show in America after NFL football.

The first four seasons of the show, along with episode one of season 5, are available to watch on demand now, with season 5, episode 2 to follow in November. So if you want to delve into the trials and tribulations of the Dutton family, read our guide below to stream every episode of Yellowstone, plus why you should connect your watch to a VPN.

How to see every season of Yellowstone at Peacock

While Yellowstone has become one of the Paramount Network’s biggest shows, somewhat surprisingly, you won’t find any seasons of the show on the network’s streaming service, Paramount Plus.

Instead you’ll find every episode of the show on rival streaming service Peacock, thanks to an exclusive deal that allows it to be the only subscription service streaming the hit drama.

However, it is worth noting that Yellowstone spinoff shows such as 1883 and 1923 are exclusive to Paramount Plus in the US and are not available on Peacock.

How to watch Yellowstone episodes from anywhere with a VPN

Maybe you’re traveling abroad and want to stream Peacock away from home. With a VPN, you can virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to access the series from anywhere in the world. There are other good reasons to use a VPN for streaming as well.

A VPN is a great way to encrypt your traffic to prevent your ISP from throttling your speed. Using a VPN is also a great idea if you’re traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network and want to add an extra layer of privacy to your devices and logins. Streaming TV can be a little easier with a reliable, quality VPN that has passed our tests and security measures.

As long as VPNs are allowed in your country and you have a valid subscription to the streaming service you’re using, you can legally use a VPN to stream content. The US and Canada are among the countries where VPNs are legal, but we advise against streaming or downloading content on illegal torrent sites. We recommend ExpressVPN, but you can choose another provider from our best list, such as Surfshark or NordVPN.

Follow the VPN provider’s instructions for installation and select a country where Yellowstone will be streaming on Peacock. Before you open the streaming app, make sure you’re connected to your VPN using your chosen region. If you want to stream Yellowstone episodes on more than one device, it’s possible you’ll need to configure each one to make sure you’re signed in. Go to Settings and check your network connections to verify that you are logged in and connected to your VPN account. Now you are ready to open Peacock for streaming.

If you’re having trouble streaming, first make sure your VPN is turned on and running on its encrypted IP address. Double check that you have followed the installation instructions correctly and that you have selected the correct geographic area to view. If you are still having connection issues, you may need to reboot your device. Close all apps and windows, restart your device and connect to your VPN first. Note that some streaming services have restrictions on VPN access.
