60 Outer Range: Season 1

Drama series debuts April 15 on Prime Video

Yellowstone—there, we said it. And so, likely, will every critic when reviewing Outer Range, which stars Josh Brolin stars as a rancher in Wyoming—complete with vistas seemingly pulled straight out of that Paramount neo-western hit, coupled with similar-seeming storylines that touch on family drama and land disputes.

Imogen Poots, Lili Taylor, Matt Lauria, Noah Reid, and Will Patton also star. Two episodes stream weekly for four weeks.
