Forget the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Yellowstone is quickly becoming the next universe to watch thanks to the series’ successful five seasons, which has also landed it two spin-off shows in development. But the tangled web of Dutton family members is becoming harder to keep track of than the Targaryens, so we’re here to help you sort out the Yellowstone family tree.
