SAG Awards: America's most popular show 'Yellowstone' FINALLY gets nominated after 4 years
‘Yellowstone’ has been one of the most extraordinary shows on TV and is responsible for giving fans several iconic moments over the years. Despite being so popular and acclaimed, the show never got to receive the recognition that it deserves. For the last four years, the Paramount show has received universal acclaim for its storyline and characters. Even then, it was snubbed at every single award ceremony and didn’t get a nomination in the main categories.
But, times have changed now and ‘Yellowstone’ is finally getting some love from the award shows. Rosario Dawson and Vanessa Hudgens announced the nominations for this year’s Screen Actors Guild awards and the ‘Yellowstone’ fandom erupted with joy when the show’s name was revealed in the Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series category.

As soon as the news of ‘Yellowstone’ getting a nomination surfaced online, fans lit up the social media with amazing reactions and said that the show finally got what it deserved since the beginning. One of the fans wrote, “Great news! Yellowstone has been overlooked since season 1 for the outstanding show that it is. It’s the best on TV!” Another fan shared, “Should have been recognized a few years earlier. Those big numbers this year couldn’t be denied. Great job team Yellowstone.”
