This article contains spoilers for the “Yellowstone” season 5 finale.

With Yellowstone officially coming to an end, it’s time to turn the page and dive into an exciting new chapter in the franchise: Four Sixes. While we bid farewell to the Dutton family, this highly anticipated spin-off promises to introduce us to new faces and storylines—or rather, familiar faces stepping into fresh roles and arcs. So, what can we expect from Four Sixes? Let’s break it down.

Jimmy’s Transformation: From Underdog to Lead

First and foremost, let’s take a moment to appreciate the incredible transformation of Jimmy Hurdstrom. Jefferson White’s portrayal of Jimmy has been nothing short of inspiring. From a clueless ranch hand struggling to find his place at Yellowstone Ranch to the lead character of Four Sixes, Jimmy’s glow-up is the ultimate underdog story.

In the Yellowstone finale, it became clear that Jimmy’s journey has been one of the series’ biggest success stories. Tough, loyal, and relatable, Jimmy embodies the heart of cowboy culture—and that’s why fans love him. According to Taylor Sheridan, Jimmy’s charm lies in being an “everyman” in the complex world of ranching.

But life at the Four Sixes Ranch won’t be easy. Early glimpses suggest that Jimmy will face intense challenges, from high-stakes ranch duties to earning the respect of his peers. Add in the complexities of his love life, particularly his romance with Emily, and it’s clear that Jimmy’s story will continue to evolve in exciting and dramatic ways.

Teeter’s New Beginning

After the heartbreaking loss of Colby, Teeter is packing her bags and heading to Texas. Known for her no-nonsense attitude, tough-as-nails demeanor, and raw emotional depth, Teeter is set to bring a much-needed human element to Four Sixes.

Her experience at Yellowstone Ranch has prepared her for the challenges ahead, but life in Texas is bound to push her limits. Fans are eager to see how her journey unfolds and what role she’ll play in the dynamic of the new ranch.

The potential interactions between Teeter and Jimmy add another layer of intrigue. Their shared history could lead to a unique bond—or possibly put them at odds. Either way, Teeter’s humor, grit, and adaptability will undoubtedly make her a standout character in the series.

Travis: A Divisive Mentor

Love him or hate him, Travis—played by Taylor Sheridan himself—is set to be a major player in Four Sixes. Unlike the fatherly mentorship of John Dutton, Travis brings a tough-love approach that’s sure to ruffle feathers. His no-nonsense attitude may be exactly what Jimmy and Teeter need to grow, though his methods are anything but gentle.

Travis’ role represents a shift in the mentorship dynamic within the franchise. With John Dutton out of the picture, Travis’ pragmatism and hard-earned respect will drive the series in a new direction. Whether he’ll help or hinder Jimmy and Teeter’s journeys remains to be seen, but his presence is bound to spark growth and drama.

The Legendary Four Sixes Ranch

The Four Sixes Ranch isn’t just a fictional backdrop; it’s a legendary piece of Texas history. Founded in 1900, the ranch is renowned for its world-class horses and cattle. Taylor Sheridan, who owns the ranch, is bringing real-life ranching authenticity to the screen.

Set against the breathtaking landscapes of Texas, Four Sixes offers a fresh setting that’s rich with history and challenges. Sheridan has always been passionate about preserving cowboy culture, and this series serves as his love letter to the American West. The ranch itself is a character in its own right, providing the perfect stage for new stories and fresh characters.

What’s Next?

With a focus on modern ranching and a shift away from the Dutton family, Four Sixes promises to be Yellowstone 2.0—but with its own unique flavor. From Jimmy’s inspiring journey to Teeter’s resilience and Travis’ tough-love mentorship, the series is shaping up to be a compelling exploration of life on one of the most famous ranches in America.

Beth and Rip could also appear on 6666

Paramount Network

“Yellowstone” season 5 teased Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser) and Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly) heading down to the Four Sixes ranch, but their future lies elsewhere. Few details are known about Beth and Rip’s own upcoming “Yellowstone” spin-off, although season 5 reveals that it’ll take place on a ranch that’s some distance away from Dillon (they don’t specify if that’s the one in Texas or Montana). However, “Yellowstone” establishes that Rip is best bros with Travis Wheatley, which creates opportunities for crossover between the shows.

Similar to the Four Sixes ranch, Beth and Rip’s new home is a cowboy paradise that’s free of tourists and cutthroat corporatists. Now that the Yellowstone ranch is under the control of the Broken Rock Reservation and legally impossible to sell, don’t be surprised if Market Equities and other corporations turn their attention to all of this unspoiled land in both states — land that’s just begging for casinos and airports to be built on it.

Every “Yellowstone” spin-off is a bloody affair that focuses on cowboys protecting their land from greedy outsiders. The formula works, and it’ll likely be applied to “6666” and the Beth and Rip-centered series. Whenever Rip needs a favor, he calls on Travis — and that goes both ways. It’d be a shame if the creators didn’t maximize opportunities to bring both worlds together from time to time.

Are you excited for Four Sixes? Do you think Jimmy is ready to carry the weight of this spin-off? Will Teeter thrive in Texas, or will the ranch push her to her limits? And what about Travis—will he help or hinder the crew’s growth? Share your thoughts and predictions in the comments below, and stay tuned for more updates on the Yellowstone franchise!
