Coverage positions the series within a new wave of gritty western dramas, drawing clear Yellowstone parallels.

  • The story centers on two rival matriarchs whose clans collide over contested land on the mid-19th-century American frontier.
  • Articles highlight a dark, adult tone and frame the series as a bingeable entry in the revived western genre.
