Yellowstone Season 5 returned from its break and the final episodes (Part 2 of Season 5) premiered on Sunday, November 10, 2024, at 8:00 p.m. ET on Paramount Network and CBS. This marked the return of the show after the first half of the season aired in 2023, with a significant gap caused by production delays and strikes. The last new episode before the break originally aired on January 1, 2023. The remaining six episodes of Season 5 were promoted as the final episodes of the series, though there is some indication that spin-offs may continue the story. In summary:
- Season 5 Part 1 aired up to January 1, 2023.
- Season 5 Part 2 (final six episodes) premiered November 10, 2024.
- The show did not return with new episodes in 2023 after the midseason break.
- Streaming availability of Part 2 came later on Peacock in 2025.
Therefore, Yellowstone did not "return in 2023" after the midseason break; rather, Season 5 Part 2 returned in November 2024 following a long hiatus after the early 2023 midseason finale.
