It was early 2017, and Taylor Sheridan stood before Viacom executives describing Yellowstone, the television series he had conceived with the producer John Linson. Sheridan had sold it to HBO some years before, only to see it languish, as so many projects do.

Instead of making Yellowstone, HBO was at the time producing the eighth season of Game of Thrones.

Now Paramount has:
Yellowstone
1883 (and the spin-off)
Tulsa King
1923

Sheridan is making the type of shows HBO used to all because HBO rejected Yellowstone.
