“Discover the Surprising Virtues of ‘Yellowstone’s’ Most Unexpected Characters!”
When you also take into account the Dutton land legacy reaching back to the spinoff limited series episodes of 1883 and 1923, John Dutton redeems himself in our eyes by wanting to continue the Dutton legacy, knowing how the family has fought even more ruthless foes for generations.
We root for him because we know his flaws—and we know that while the surface level of his actions may seem overtly ruthless (and sometimes evil) to most, his decisions come from a place of love, loyalty, and legacy. We also get hints of his own conservatism when it comes to the land—even as he faces off against his sometimes foe, sometimes ally Thomas Rainwater (Gil Birmingham), who has a longer-standing claim to Dutton’s land.
