Since its 2018 premiere, Taylor Sheridan's hit neo-western drama Yellowstone has ruled the airwaves, setting records and breaking them. The show was a major sleeper hit that went mainstream a few seasons before it ended. However, internal conflicts affected the quality in later seasons, with the final one failing to land the ship successfully after Kevin Costner's exit. Paramount was not ready to let go of this universe after it had given them numerous hits in the form of prequels. However, the network has now shifted its focus to what happens after Yellowstone, with spin-offs like Marshals and Dutton Ranch.

One of the most satisfying things about television is watching a story you've invested in reach a satisfying conclusion. And when that story is a sci-fi narrative that only the creators know to bring to an end, it becomes even more frustrating when the show gets cancelled. Shows like Firefly, Raised by Wolves, and The OA remain among the most controversial cancellations in history. However, one of the worst sci-fi cancellations came at an inopportune time as the show was gearing up for a final season that never saw the light of day. But even with that untimely ending close to four years ago, that show is still a streaming favorite.

For fans of crime dramas, the 2014 Starz series Power remains one of the best. The series blends together a world of struggle, law enforcement, murder, and romance to deliver an exhilarating viewing experience. Power has been so successful that it has spawned three successful spin-offs so far, with more planned in the near future. Now, Netflix is tapping into that aspect that makes the universe feel electric with enigmatic leads, action, and beautiful sets.

It's commonly joked that Taylor Sheridan keeps Paramount+ in business because, at any given time, he has three or more shows trending on the streamer's top ten. The prolific writer-director has delivered more hits for Paramount+ than any other creator, and even as he prepares to depart the company for NBCUniversal, the numbers keep rolling in. Yellowstone remains his most popular series to date, spawning numerous successful spin-offs. However, the latest entrant into this universe sends the franchise into the stratosphere.
