West Coast viewers can catch it at 9 p.m. PT on Thursday evening, while international fans streaming via Paramount+ can tune in at 8 a.m. GMT. As the first season approaches its climax, the stakes for Beth and Rip have never been higher.

The ‘Yellowstone’ spinoff, which premiered in May, is a nine-episode drama series in the Western genre airing on the Paramount Network. With the endgame now in sight, Episode 7 promises to be one of the season’s most pivotal hours.

‘Dutton Ranch’ is available for streaming on Paramount+ for $7.99 per month on the limited-ads tier, or $12.99 per month for the ad-free option. For international viewers, the series can also be accessed through the Paramount+ channel add-on via Amazon Prime Video.

New episodes also air on the Paramount Network at 8 p.m. ET on Fridays, providing fans on cable or live-TV streaming services another way to catch up. All previous episodes are available to stream on demand, ensuring that anyone needing to catch up before Episode 7 drops has plenty of options.

Episode 7 is expected to run for approximately 45 minutes, consistent with the runtime of earlier episodes this season. Following Episode 7, new episodes of ‘Dutton Ranch’ will continue to be released on Fridays at roughly midnight ET, no later than 3 a.m. ET, with weekly installments running through July 3, when the season finale will air.

Episode 7 will delve deeper into the challenges faced by Rip and Beth Dutton as they navigate their lives in South Texas. Although their move was meant to offer a fresh start, they have encountered numerous obstacles, including the harsh realities of ranch life, financial struggles, and an ongoing feud with the nearby Jackson clan.

A central theme this season is the escalating rivalry between the Duttons and the Jackson family, a conflict that has affected both their work and personal relationships. With only a few episodes left, every decision made by either side could have lasting consequences.

Earlier in the season, after losing their cattle, Rip accepted a lifeline from Beulah Jackson, played by Annette Bening, and took on a foreman role at her 10 Petal Ranch. While Rip has impressed Jackson with his skills, this arrangement has also created new enemies for him. The tension between serving a rival and protecting his family has placed Rip in a precarious position.

Complicating matters is the budding relationship between young Carter and Oreana, the Jackson granddaughter, which adds a personal layer to the already intense power struggle between the two ranching families.

In ‘Dutton Ranch’, Beth and Rip strive to build a future together, far from the shadows of Yellowstone, only to confront harsh new realities and a ruthless rival ranch that will stop at nothing to defend its empire. In South Texas, blood runs deeper, forgiveness is fleeting, and the cost of survival may be their very souls.

The series is created and run by Chad Feehan, based on the world established by Taylor Sheridan. Season 1 episodes are directed by Greg Yaitanes, Jessica Lowrey, Phil Abraham, and Emmy winner Christina Alexandra Voros, who directs both the pilot and the finale.

Alongside Reilly and Hauser, ‘Dutton Ranch’ features Finn Little, reprising his role as Carter from ‘Yellowstone’, along with new cast members including Annette Bening, Ed Harris, Jai Courtney, Natalie Alyn Lind, and Juan Pablo Raba. This blend of familiar faces and new talent has infused the show with an engaging energy that resonates with ‘Yellowstone’ fans while offering something fresh.

The premiere of ‘Dutton Ranch’ broke records for a Paramount+ original series, with its May 15 debut attracting 12.9 million views worldwide in its first week. This impressive figure outpaced every previous launch on the platform.

On linear television, the two-episode premiere on the Paramount Network drew 2.9 million viewers on its opening night, marking the biggest series premiere on cable since 2023. The show also ranked as the top cable entertainment telecast on premiere day among adults aged 18 to 49 and total viewers.

Season 2 of ‘Dutton Ranch’ is already confirmed, reassuring fans that Beth and Rip’s Texas journey is far from over, even as the final episodes of Season 1 approach. The record-breaking numbers have convincingly demonstrated that the ‘Yellowstone’ universe still has significant momentum, perhaps more than ever.

According to Men’s Journal, ‘Dutton Ranch’ is poised to be the biggest show of 2026, proving that Beth and Rip’s move to Texas was a smart decision for the franchise. As the season finale approaches, fans are left wondering if it can match the intensity of everything that has transpired so far. With Episode 7 on the horizon and tensions rising between the Duttons and the Jacksons, the critical question remains: can Rip and Beth navigate South Texas with their ranch, marriage, and souls intact? What do you think lies ahead for them in this final stretch, and can the Dutton-Jackson rivalry conclude without bloodshed?
