Can’t handle Yellowstone? Try Clarkson’s Farm. No really.
So you watched Yellowstone. You came for the cowboy hats and the sweeping Montana vistas. You stayed for the family drama. Then, somewhere around the third dramatic murder, you started wondering whether you’d accidentally signed up for a crime documentary with really nice horses.
You are not alone. Plenty of viewers love the ranch, the scenery, and the legacy, yet they could happily skip the body count. So what if you want to keep the wide open fields, the cowboy hats, and the family drama, but drop the murders, the revenge plots, and the occasional war crime?
Clarkson’s Farm: All the Ranching, Almost None of the Homicide
Here’s the curveball. The best Yellowstone alternative might not be a drama at all. Instead, it might be a 65-year-old British man arguing with local government about a gravel driveway.
Clarkson’s Farm follows former Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson as he attempts to run Diddly Squat Farm despite a documented allergy to manual labor. Consequently, you get escaped sheep, baffling bureaucracy, robot tractors, and Kaleb Cooper reacting to all of it. Furthermore, you get genuine stakes, because real farms really do live or die on a single harvest.
In other words, it scratches the same itch Yellowstone does. You get people building something, protecting a legacy, and solving impossible problems. You simply lose the part where someone ends up in a ravine. With VidAngel, you can filter the foul language that tends to spike whenever a tractor breaks down, so the funny stays funny.
Shows Like Yellowstone (For People Who Don’t Actually Want Yellowstone)
Most “shows like Yellowstone” lists hand you the obvious suspects: 1883, 1923, Dutton Ranch, Landman, The Madison, and Marshals. The problem? Several of those keep the exact intensity you were trying to escape. As a result, you end up right back where you started, just with a different decade in the title.
Therefore, ask yourself one question. What did you actually like about Yellowstone? If the answer was the violence, carry on, and VidAngel can still help you skip the parts that go too far. However, if the answer was the building, the legacy, the family dynamics, and the thrill of watching people solve impossible problems, then the weirdest replacement on this list is also the best one.
That’s right. It’s still Clarkson’s Farm.
