Surprise! Hollywood Awards Finally Recognize Non-Woke ‘Yellowstone’

Hell — or Hollywood — has frozen over. The Hollywood Awards season recognizes one of the unwoken (and most popular) programs on TV. 

For years, Hollywood’s ruling class ignored Paramount Network’s Yellowstone The awards season was upon us. Kevin Costner stars as the lead in this drama about Montana’s ranching family trying to protect their land. After three seasons, fans had grown used to it being routinely ignored by awards shows.

But earlier this month, the Screen Actors Guild finally acknowledged Yellowstone with a nomination for its ensemble cast amidst its widely talked about fourth season. On Thursday, January 27, Producers Guild Awards presented the series with the Best Episodic Drama nomination.

With everyone from the Emmys to the Golden Globes routinely snubbing it outright in major categories, one wonders why Hollywood is finally starting to wake up to the show.

The series is constantly ranked as America’s most-watched television show, but its cast and plotline are a source of anger for many left-leaning people. 

Kathryn VanArendonk at Vulture fretted that the show “is such a persuasive, beguiling vision of white American masculinity — ownership, mastery, freedom from interference and surveillance, loyalty at all costs, physical strength, and Land.”

Oh no, masculinity, property, freedom and white guys who aren’t weak or villains. It’s So dangerous.

In an article entitled “Why Yellowstone Is the Most Anti-Woke Show in Existence,” he wrote

Yellowstone preaches environment protection and masculine values every step of the journey Within the requirements of maintaining human life and building communities and celebrates the fact that Indians and whites don’t have to be the same to have the same hopes and dreams,” Conservative historian and commentator Larry Schweikart wrote in an article titled, “Why Yellowstone is the most Anti-Woke Show in Existence.” And so far, there has not been one LGBTQXYZ person on the horizon.”

The reason Hollywood has been so silent about the show is obvious. Yellowstone’s meteoric rise coincides with Hollywood left-wing hyperbolia about Trump’s 2016 election. This was followed by BLM propaganda dominating television scripts in 2020-2021. 

Maybe acknowledging any show that did not fit into a left-wing bubble felt too terrifying for leftists when they were screaming at the sky and burning down American cities. Now that they have a Democrat in the White House, perhaps some in Hollywood feel it’s safe to toss a few nominations at old white guys with cowboy hats. We’ll never know.

The writers will hopefully be able to Yellowstone won’t let it go to their heads and begin to care about Hollywood elites over their audience. It would be a disaster. YellowstoneMore than it could ever be woken.
