Paramount+ Renews 'Dutton Ranch' for Season 2 as 9-Part Spinoff Posts Record Launch

3 articles · Updated · Deadline · Jun 24

Summary

  • Two episodes remain in Dutton Ranch’s first season, but Paramount+ has already ordered a second run after calling it the biggest original-series launch in the streamer’s history.
  • The 9-part Yellowstone spinoff premiered May 15 and follows Beth and Rip — played by Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser — as they move their family to South Texas.
  • Chad Feehan, who created the series, exited before the launch, leaving the show potentially searching for a new showrunner even as production moves toward Season 2.
  • The renewal extends Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone universe, with Paramount+ and Paramount Television Studios betting the spinoff can build on the franchise while standing on its own.
