Kayce is my favorite character in Yellowstone, he's always battling between doing the right thing and doing what his family's telling him to do, a struggle that reminds of Michael Corleone in the godfather.

[@noahbtwofouronethree3225]

Nice pull 👌🏽

[@BostonsF1nest]

When Yellowstone first started it reminded me of The Godfather- John Dutton is Vito Corleone, KC is Michael, Jaime is the lawyer consigliere like Tom Hagen, Rip is like Sonny. I wish they had stayed with that theme instead of venturing off into a cowboy soap opera.

[@Mahalcanin74]

And then he left father for hes wife doesnt like him.......

His character is just a little too pw'd for me 😊

[@YesterYear-Gaming]

He totally side stepped the question about how we feel about Californians. It’s because the bitterroot valley is extremely conservative and people move here to raise families where it is safe. Very low crime. Californians are always moving here because they say California is so bad. And then they try to run things like it is in California. Completely forgetting why they left in the first place.

[@DesertDweller74]

Same with here in Arizona. OMG, stay in Cali!

[@TheOraclearchive]

Imagine how the indigenous feel, or not.

[@djpeeler2912]

@Andrew Brown Well said, sir. Not to mention the grossly inflated prices of real estate and rental rates that we've suffered in large part due to the influence of the Yellowstone project here in the Bitterroot Valley. The growth of living costs has fast outpaced wages here. Yellowstone is not the only factor, but it is a significant one. Can't wait for the project to leave Montana.

Oh my, when I first saw that show advertised, I said that I was going to watch it. Anything Kevin Costner does is incredible. But, for some reason, never did watch it, until this past weekend. That show is off the hook. I got to binge watch Yellowstone this past weekend. Off the charts. I did watch season 5 premiere and it was good. I thought the scene with the young man who plays Carter has grown so much. I liked it when Kevin saw him, he looked at him and said don't grow a beard. Too cute, and funny. Carter grew up so fast. Anyway, will continue to follow that show. I literally fell in love with the show. Much success to Yellowstone and the cast!!❤👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
