Ransom Canyon Is Coming to Netflix Soon, and It Might Be Perfect for Yellowstone Fans
There's something about shows set in Texas that really draws in the crowds.
There is no denying that Taylor Sheridan has turned the Western genre into a fan favorite with his Yellowstone. The hit show blends gritty western drama with intense family conflict, and that's a duo that can make anything compelling.
But while the franchise remains one of the most popular out there, something new is already catching the eyes of Yellowstone's core audience. Set in the heart of Texas, the upcoming Netflix series called Ransom Canyon promises to deliver a similar atmosphere, filled with wild landscapes, complex characters, and plenty of tension.
What Is Ransom Canyon About?
Ransom Canyon is based on the book series by Jodi Thomas. The series takes place in a small, tight-knit town where secrets run deep and relationships are anything but simple. Like Yellowstone, it explores the always relevant issues of loyalty and betrayal, and delves deep into the conflicts that come with living in close proximity to the land.
The series zooms in on the lives of the people who populate the town, from ranchers and oil barons to outcasts and rebels. The family drama explores the intertwined lives and affections of three ranching families, all set against the vast canyons and twisting rivers of the Texas Hill Country. It's also a contemporary western saga with a romantic twist.

One thing is clear: whether it’s the romance, the family dynamics, or the clash between tradition and progress, Ransom Canyon is shaping up to offer the same kind of emotional depth and high-stakes drama that Yellowstone fans have come to love.
Earlier Netflix dropped the official teaser of the series, and from the first look it seems like the show is going to become a fan favorite. Josh Duhamel and Minka Kelly will be the lead stars in the upcoming western. And the comments section on Youtube is full of hope.
“I saw Josh Duhamel in the thumbnail and I knew that I'd want to watch this, it looks so good!” user musiclovergirlie said.
Ransom Canyon will debut April 17 on Netflix.
