Sheridan continues to hit home run after home run

You knew that in order for Stallone to make a series, he must have a good script, and, of course, Taylor Sheridan must be its creator. He is the best thing happening on TV now, with his incredible series like Yellowstone, 1883, The Mayor of Kingstown, etc. And movies like Sicario, From or High Water, and Windy River".

I mean, come on?

Everything he touches turns to gold. In addition, one of the other screenwriters is Terence Winter, who wrote such series as "The Sopranos" and "Underground Empire". There was no chance that this series would be bad if these two were at the helm.

Stallone perfectly plays a very likable tough guy
