Agree, strongly agree. I didn't get into the show until season 3 and he was a big reason why. Was visiting my mother during a marathon for the season premiere and got into the show and after 2 episodes I said Rip was an awesome character and mom asked if I recognized him and I said no and she was like that's Cole Hauser.

As hard and rough as Rip was he, more than anyone I’ve ever seen, truly knew what love was. His love for the Yellowstone (John) and for Beth was pure and unadulterated. He never asked for anything, but gave all he has and understands that by giving freely he is also receiving. Beth is so lucky to have someone with Rips quiet understanding to be so in love with her. He truly understands that loyalty comes from a place of love and not debt.

I think that look was more than an I love you. I think it was also weighted by the fact that she sees him having this touching moment with a little boy and knows she can’t give him a son. He lost his family and any chance of them ever having a biological family of their own one day was stolen by Jamie. Simply because she trusted her brother. She seems to hold a lot of guilt bc of it.

[@Bad_At_Parties]

This show is filled with amazing, fascinating, well-crafted characters top to bottom, but Rip has always been the standout to me. There's just something about him that never fails to captivate me. He does everything he can to protect the ranch and the Dutton family, even though he's not got any stake in the land or any blood of that family running through his veins. He never asks for anything in return for all his blood and sweat, never complains about what he has to do or what's done to him, nor does he take any of it for granted. He's just appreciative to have the only thing that has ever felt like an approximation of a home to him, because he never got to have that growing up. Where all the other Dutton kids disappointed, or clashed with John or went their own ways, Rip was always there when he was needed, every single time, and his loyalty never had to be questioned or verified. The scene depicting Rip receiving land on the ranch as John's letter is read to him never fails to make me emotional, as the moment even breaks the stoic tough guy himself. For all he's given, Rip is finally rewarded with what he deserves, not just with a tangible mark of his role within the Dutton family that the property signifies, but far more by the understated yet powerful way John fully accepts him as his own son. In many ways, this is also a sign that as time goes on and the battle for the ranch and the land intensifies from all sides, John realizes that everyone there is his family, whether they share the same blood or not, because they are all fighting for the same thing. And there's a beauty in that.

The scene with Beth on the roof, right before she was attacked, is my top favorite scene of Cole's. He is strong, vulnerable, caring, and volatile all at once.

[@glamsky3257]

He's way more important. John wouldn't survive without him.

[@earlygray4456]

The sound mixing on the roof scene is amazing. Letting the song play while Rip makes his way to Beth, then slowly dropping the track to only the bass while they greet each other, then drop the track completely to allow Rip to open up to Beth and let her know how he dealt with his family trauma, only to resume the music slowly while the unspoken "I love you" lingers in the air. It really adds to the scene and the dialog.

[@davidnoffke1320]

[@hippeedippee]

That’s how they can be tough

[@Doggydays43]

The scene where young John Dutton and a very young rip wheeler is an amazing scene which shows your his character details at such a young age... John knew right then and there that ripp was a keeper for the ranch and the family

[@ryanmorley8211]

Thinking back to movies like Pitch Black and 2 Fast 2 Furious... Cole Hauser has come a long way and he shines so god damn bright in this role as Rip Wheeler. Bad ass dude. I'd sure like to meet him someday. Kevin Costner... hell the whole cast of Yellowstone.

[@mrmisunderstood1]

It’s crazy to think he was Benny in Dazed and Confused.

[@katsungchan3599]

He will always be Carter Veron to me

[@MehIgotnothing]

He was great in Tears of the Sun, too.

[@Robert-py4ce]

I love the moments Taylor Sheridan gives us. He tends to dwell to long on the stark realism of life like a Larry McMurtry novel, but it does have its place if you want to watch something visceral.

[@theplourde]

The cast of this show is stacked but nobody gives Cole Hauser enough credit. He is Rip.

[@xcd87]

I don't thibk so, everyone gives him credit he is a show favourite, i don't know what made you think nobody gave him credit.

Yeah I don't see where there was no credit given to him....Everyone who watches the show loves RIP.

[@caelachyt]

Ahhhh, nope.

[@Diddley_Squat]

He's that dude from that one movie

[@mrhoffame]

The way he developed the Rip character is just BEYOND amazing. To create a character that you can hate, love, want to destroy, and want so support to every end is just beyond impressive. He can seem so selfish, yet he is also the guy who truly puts something bigger than himself as the driving force of his life. He seems so dam mean, but at the same time never really let's himself get in his own way to teaching lessons that he truly feels are for other people's good. Will give his life those he is dedicated to without hesitation. Really amazing!!

[@alexmook6786]

Cole is one of the greatest actors I have ever seen. He is so very gifted.

[@luizcarlossoaresjr1436]

That scene when John reconizes him as one of his sons broke my hearth, i'm adopted myself and when i was younger and going throgh a rough patch my father sat down with me and told me the same thing, even remembering it makes me cry

[@SuzanneVerhaag]

Rip is the total package on the show and no one could play him better then Cole. Easy on the eyes and rough around the edges. Can't wait to watch him shine every episode

[@jonathanstambanis8680]

Rip is 100% my favourite character from the show. Just love how he doesn't take shit from anyone and that John treats him like family

[@LuckyDogDog]

I believe that deep down every man wants to be rip wheeler tough yet compassionate. A true man

[@Aundrich]

Ripp is a man thay everyone should learn from. The ends and outs.

[@bballbeasty]

I have loved Cole Hauser in everything he has been in. Carter in 2F2F, Red in TotS and Rip in Yellowstone. The man is a colossally underrated actor. His portrayal of Rip makes Yellowstone that much better than almost any other show on TV right now.

Even in Goodwill Hunting?

The folks below are are absolutely correct Rip does make the show. He may seem like a simple man but he is as complex as any of the rest. He show us what respect, honor, patience and beyond all that loyalty looks like.

The longer the seasons go, the more emotional we all get. The more emotionally attached we all get. We will all cry in the end.

[@Just_Call_Me_Pagton]

When John calls him his son it made my eyes watery. Every time I see this scene. Bring a grown man to tears 😭

[@rainstand2772]

Rip reminds me of a samurai or a knight. He’s a warrior and loyal to his lord/employer to the death and no fear of battle. He will always jump in to protect what’s his or a part of his territory

[@SuzyQ89]

Every girl dreams of having a Rip in their life. I know I do ❤ Cole was born to play this role and boy does he do it so well ❤

[@carlorachel]

Ahh, SQ, what you say is beautiful, and timely. I was recently called "Rip" by someone who thinks how I'm living my life resembles Rip on this incredible show. I don't know what to do or say to a statement like that. I think it has to do with being true to oneself so you can be true to everyone else. It's not exactly a "popular" notion because it does lead to a lot of awkward moments. But also deeply reflective exchanges that flow over with love. I pray for you to find that Rip. He's out there. And, by the power of God, he is looking for you, too. Such unions are what put you on the road to Heaven. Stay well, sister.

[@Hmh2783]

One of the best TV shows ever... In the middle of thousands of bullshit TV shows..

[@w_419]

Coming from a fatherless home growing up I found the father figure and the example of the man I wish to be in my bestfriends father, we have been through a lot together and gotten close and inseparable with his family throughout the years and then one day I was filling out a job application and needed non related references to put down so later that night I asked him at dinner if it would be ok to put him down as one of those references. He just looked at me and said "of course, youre one of mine arent you?" I had to excuse myself because I was having a hard time holding it together so the letter scene when Rip realizes that John thinks of him as a son and calls him as such hits especially hard and true. In my opinion this is one of the greatest shows ever made.

[@marchhare9440]

I'm right there with you, that scene hit me much harder than I thought it would.

[@thekansasjayhawk3504]

Josh Lucas was the perfect choice to play a younger John Dutton. His mannerisms, his look, and voice are dead on incredible.

[@Jpilgrim30]

I used to say to my wife every time I saw him in something that he reminded me of a young Kevin Costner and then he gets this role 😂 He’s perfect for it.

I'll never forget Rip busting through the glass window walking straight into gunfire to save her. He became larger than life at that moment.

[@Heather-xm9ul]

He certainly was larger than life on that scene. And I appreciated the realism when he got shot. You knew he felt it! But unlike most Hollywood, they didn't make him act like nothing was wrong, nor did he keel over like a poorly placed shot is lethal. He was a proper warrior in that scene.
