Taylor Sheridan The hit series will reportedly launch on Netflix in more countries including the UK, Canada and the Netherlands from January 30th. However, the situation remains unchanged for US subscribers, and for good reason.

Still with us? The series has spawned two successful spin-offs: 1883 And 1923with even more projects in the works. However, Netflix’s desire to acquire the rights to the show became clear in early 2024 when the company secured streaming rights in international territories.

There’s no confirmation yet on how many seasons will be available, but given previous releases, it’s likely that seasons 1-3 will debut first.

Why isn’t Yellowstone available on Netflix US?

Well, it’s pretty complicated, and Paramount no doubt wishes they could change it too. The answer lies in the existing license agreements. NBCUniversal’s Peacock acquired the US streaming rights for Yellowstone by CBS in 2020, locking the series exclusively on Peacock and Paramount Network, meaning Paramount can’t actually stream their own series on their own streamer.

That would also explain the desire to make as many shows as possible from the “Creator of Yellowstone.” Puck reported that Peacock will retain US rights to it Yellowstone until four years after the series finale aired. With the Yellowstone Since the season five finale didn’t air until December 15, 2024, Netflix won’t even have a chance to acquire the US rights until at least 2028.
