The problem really started with the development of the series. Yellowstone It was purchased from HBO by The Weinstein Company, but was too expensive to stream on TV. And so he ended up with Viacom looking for something for the Paramount Network.
After several women accused Harvey Weinstein of sexually opposite behavior in 2017, the series moved to Paramount Network. And when the show aired in 2018, it had no streaming service. Thus, Paramount Network decided to sell the broadcast rights to Peacock for $1.5 million per episode.
