Did Colby die in Yellowstone?

Why? Yellowstone Kill Colby?

Right in the foreground, while Colby’s death comes as a complete surprise Yellowstone and creates a new storyline and theme that wasn’t there at all before, there was also the possibility for emotional moments between other characters. Apparently, Teeter (Jen Landon), who was romantically involved with Colby, experiences an emotionally devastating moment. Rip (Cole Hauser) is sad for a moment, feeling like he has failed not only Colby, but his entire stable of cowboys. Carter and Beth (Kelly Reilly) share a heartfelt moment in a place that is extremely important to her. And Kayce (Luke Grimes) and Tate (Brecken Merrill) have an important and heartfelt conversation about death.

But that Yellowstone Powers also explained the reasons behind the shocking decision to kill off a character who has been part of the series since the beginning.

“In a season where there are all these twists and dark forces and huge narrative shifts, Colby’s death is so powerful because it’s so simple,” says Christina Voros, executive producer and director of all four Yellowstone Season 5, part 2 episodes so far, told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview. “For anyone who really understands the cowboy lifestyle and working with animals and the risks of the job – and Rip says this about himself – it’s a dangerous job and something like this happens in a split second.”

Your explanation makes sense. It’s just that such a shocking narrative choice probably would have worked better in the middle of a season, when there’s still a lot of show to come – and not when things theoretically need to come to an end. We still have two episodes left Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2, and we just have to see how they try to get this jet from unknown air onto some kind of runway.
