Taylor Sheridan followers and Yellowstone fanatics restlessly pining for one of the countless western spin-offs to premiere should consider History Channel’s 2012 miniseries, Hatfields & McCoys. Also starring Yellowstone’s commanding lead actor Kevin Costner, the acclaimed three-part miniseries traces the real-life rivalry between the two titular feuding families following the American Civil War.

Although it’s set in a different time period and geographic location than Yellowstone’s contemporary Montana landscape, Hatfields & McCoys looks, feels, and sounds like something Taylor Sheridan created, or at the very least, was inspired by. Between the ultra-violent action scenes and austere melodramatic tone, not to mention a more convincing cast of cinematic character actors, Hatfields & McCoys is the ideal Yellowstone alternative until the Y: Marshals spin-off is released in March 2026.

Released by the History Channel in May 2012 as a miniseries presented over three days, Hatfields & McCoys was the network’s first scripted TV drama. Given such a precedent, great efforts were made to tell the real-life story of the violent rivalry between the Hatfield and McCoy families along the Kentucky/Virginia border during the American Civil War in 1863 and the subsequent Reconstruction era.

Kevin Costner plays William Anderson “Devil Anse” Hatfield, a former Confederate soldier from Virginia who leads his family into a 30-year territorial battle with the McCoy family. The late Bill Paxton portrays patriarch Randolph “Randall” McCoy, a Confederate supporter from Kentucky who lost five children to the Hatfield-McCoy blood feud that had lasting impacts for generations.
