*Spoilers follow – you have been warned*

The final chapter of season five began with the death of John Dutton, the main character played by Kevin Costner, whose departure from the series is well-documented and mired in controversy.

In last week’s episode, Sarah Atwood (Dawn Olivieri) – the girlfriend of Wes Bentley’s Jamie Dutton – was murdered after viewers discovered she was responsible for John’s murder.

Last season’s killing spree claimed its final victim in the final episode, which aired on Sunday (December 1) – and it appears to have upset viewers the most due to the “unnecessary” plot twist.

At that moment, original character Colby Mayfield (Denim Richards) was kicked in the chest by a wild stallion he had been trying to tame in recent episodes.

What made the death even more heartbreaking was the fact that Colby had just told his girlfriend Teeter (Jennifer Landon) that he loved her.

Longtime viewers of YellowstoneThose who have liked Colby since his appearance in the first season were angry at showrunner Taylor Sheridan, and many lamented the number of deaths that have occurred in recent episodes.

One fan said: “There was no reason to kill Colby at all,” while another explained: “I’m devastated right now!” What the fuck, Taylor Sheridan!”

Costner’s death kicked off the final episodes and after his character’s death aired, the Oscar winner said: “I didn’t see it. I’ll be completely honest. I didn’t know it actually aired last night. I didn’t know it was yesterday.”
