Yellowstone fans all saying the same thing after shocking finale death

Yellowstone came to a thrilling conclusion on Sunday, delivering another jaw-dropping character death that left fans gushing on social media.

The dramatic final episode tied together several major stories, including Kayce Dutton (Luke Grimes) selling the iconic Yellowstone ranch to its original owners, the Broken Rock Indians.

But the biggest surprise of the night came when Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly) avenged the murder of her father, John Dutton (Kevin Costner), by killing her adopted brother Jamie Dutton (Wes Bentley).

In a brutal confrontation, Beth fatally stabbed Jamie in the heart and he nearly strangled her to death, with her husband Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser) helping to dispose of the body and preserve the family’s dark legacy.

While the series finale left fans divided overall, many were united in their reaction to Jamie’s death, celebrating it as belated justice.

‘I know it’s true, Beth!!!!! ‘Jamie’s been taking this beating for YEARS!!!’ declared one enthusiastic fan on X.

Another chimed in: ‘Jamie got what he deserved!’

One viewer humorously added, “I love that Beth finally broke up with Jamie, but we wish we could have seen Rip yell at her some more.” Tossing it around a little wasn’t enough for Jamie’s sorry ass. #Yellowstone.’

However, not everyone was cheering Beth on. Some fans expressed their disagreement, expressing sympathy for Jamie and criticism of the show’s direction.

‘Death has come to Jamie. But I’m not happy. I’m still team Jamie,” one viewer shared. ‘John Dutton was not a good man. That family ruined Jamie.

Another took aim at the series creator: ‘Dear #TaylorSheridan, Jamie was never the supervillain you wanted us to believe he was. That was cheap. That was lazy. That was predictable.

‘Wes Bentley and the character deserved better. You had five seasons to do something better and you didn’t.

Others directed their anger at Beth herself.

“Beth Dutton never took even a lick of responsibility for getting pregnant as a teenager and asking Jamie, also a teenager, to help her cover it up. She hated him for it. Now she murdered him and got away with it. She’s the worst. #Yellowstone,’ ranted one viewer.

The series also confirmed a theory first exposed in the 1883 finale where the Indian named Spotted Eagle (Graham Greene) said his people would take back the land after seven generations, which ultimately turned out to be true.

Kayce made a deal with Thomas Rainwater (Gil Birminghan), selling him the land very cheap at $1.25 an acre, the same price the land was selling for in 1883: $1.1 million for the largest ranch in Mountain.

@iLEADFARMER said: ‘I KNEW IT! Kayce sells ranch to Broken Rock Reservation! The prophecy of 1883, when James Dutton originally obtained the land, is about to come true!’

‘They are cutting their palms with a knife in a ceremony. Now they are brothers with each other and with the earth. After 7 generations, what was said in the 19th century came true!’ @TheWSB tweeted.

Sandra Trolinger said: ‘Kasey and her family are protected and the ranch continues to live as it should, wild and free. Bravo!’

@LilMar68 said: ‘Kayce, I’m tremendously proud of you’ while adding the hashtags #YellowstoneTV #Yellowstone

Tangee B (@DejaCQQ99) said, “That was a powerful scene,” referring to the scene where Jamie negotiates the sale of the ranch.

@The_WSB said: ‘The promise made 7 generations ago comes true! That whole palm cut was painful! #YellowstoneTV #Yellowstone.’

The Yellowstone saga will continue with season 2 of the 1923 prequel series, debuting on February 23.
