Right now, there is no show more popular in the world on Paramount+ than Dutton Ranch. One of the darkest spin-offs in the *Yellowstone *universe, Rip (Cole Hauser) and Beth’s (Kelly Reilly) risky move to a new life in South Texas, where they quickly face opposition from a rival ranch, has had viewers gripped from the opening moments of its series premiere back in May. This past Friday, Episode 6, “A Cowboy Saint,” premiered on Paramount+, helping to keep the title at the top of the streaming tree.
Dutton Ranch might be the undefeated champion of the current streaming charts, but there are many more shows from Taylor Sheridan’s vast catalog also proving popular. The original, Yellowstone, has currently found itself back in the top ten, no doubt inspired by the recent release of Dutton Ranch. The Madison, starring Hollywood big-hitters Kurt Russell and Michelle Pfeiffer, also continues to be a fan-favorite, although it has slipped down the charts as of late, courtesy of the 2026 arrival of Marshals, the next chapter in a post-ranch life for Kayce Dutton (Luke Grimes).
Another series to find its way back into the top ten, despite having not aired an episode since November 2025, is Tulsa King, Sheridan’s hit crime saga starring Sylvester Stallone and Frank Grillo. The funniest show in Sheridan’s catalog features an already iconic central performance from Stallone, as New York mobster Dwight ‘The General’ Manfredi. Across its three seasons to date, Tulsa King has grown in popularity, with the impressive 21.1 million viewing figures recorded for the Season 2 premiere increasing by 19% for the Season 3 premiere. At the time of writing,* Tulsa King*** is the fifth-most-watched show on Paramount+ in the world**.
The show that claimed the most of your answers is the world you were built for. If two tied, both are shown — you’re complicated enough to straddle two Sheridan universes.
You are a Dutton — or you might as well be. You understand that some things are worth protecting at any cost, and that the modern world’s indifference to history, to land, to legacy, is not something you’re willing to accept quietly. You lead from the front, you carry your family’s weight without complaint, and when someone threatens what’s yours, you don’t escalate — you finish it. You’re not cruel. But you are absolute. In Yellowstone’s world, that combination of ferocity and loyalty doesn’t make you a villain. It makes you the only thing standing between everything that matters and everyone who wants to take it.
You thrive in the chaos of high-stakes negotiation, where the money is enormous, the margins are thin, and the wrong word in the wrong room can cost everyone everything. You’re a fixer — the person called when a situation is already on fire and needs someone with the nerve to walk into it. West Texas oil country rewards exactly what you are: sharp, adaptable, unsentimental, and absolutely clear-eyed about what people want and what they’ll do to get it. You’re not naive enough to think this world is fair. You’re smart enough to be the one deciding who it’s fair to.
You are a Dwight Manfredi — someone who has served their time, paid their dues, and arrived somewhere unexpected with nothing but their reputation and their wits. You adapt without losing yourself. You build loyalty through respect rather than fear, though you’re not above reminding people that the two aren’t mutually exclusive. Tulsa King is for people who are still standing when everyone assumed they’d be finished — who find, in an unfamiliar place, that they’re more capable than the world gave them credit for. You don’t need a throne. You build one, wherever you happen to land.
You carry the weight of a system that is broken by design, and you do it anyway — because someone has to, and because you’re the only one positioned to do it without the whole thing collapsing. Mike McLusky’s world is for people who are comfortable operating where there are no good options, only less catastrophic ones. You speak every language: law enforcement, criminal, political, human. That fluency makes you invaluable and it makes you a target. You’ve made your peace with both. Mayor of Kingstown belongs to people who understand that keeping the peace is not the same as being at peace — and who do the job regardless.
*Tulsa King *is streaming on Paramount+. Stay tuned to Collider for more streaming stories.
