The latest episode of “Yellowstone” has left fans shocked and disappointed as the beloved character John Dutton, played by Kevin Costner, met a rather ignoble end. In a surprising turn of events, it was revealed that John was believed to have committed suicide in the show, a stark departure from his usual stoic and manly persona.
The decision to portray John’s death in such a manner has raised eyebrows among fans, with many questioning the motives behind the creative choice. Some have speculated that series creator Taylor Sheridan may be using John’s death as a way to take a jab at Costner, who recently departed from the show amid reports of disagreements over scheduling and production issues.
This isn’t the first time a character’s exit has been handled in a controversial manner. In the past, shows like “South Park” and “Two and a Half Men” have taken pointed jabs at departing actors, leading to mixed reactions from fans and critics alike.
In addition to the shocking portrayal of John’s death, the latest episodes also revealed a troubling subplot involving John’s love interest, Summer. It was revealed that John had essentially kidnapped her and kept her against her will, under the guise of house arrest. This revelation paints John in a negative light and raises further questions about his character and motivations.
As the show moves forward, it remains to be seen how Sheridan will continue to handle John’s legacy and the fallout from his death. Will more shocking revelations come to light? Will Costner’s character be further tarnished in the eyes of fans? Only time will tell.
Despite the controversial storyline, fans of the show continue to tune in, eager to see how the drama unfolds. As we await the next episode, one thing is certain: the legacy of John Dutton will never be the same.
