'Yellowstone' episode 6 review: 'The Remembering' marks show's riveting return to its roots

'Yellowstone' is gradually beginning to improve, with 'The Remembering' an improvement on previous attempts, but still not quite up to the mark.

Last episode 'Coming Home' was the series' best till date, providing some much-needed background into the characters we had loved to hate over the season, though it wasn't without its faults either. Jamie Dutton (Wes Bentley) makes a welcome return to the fold as his father's ever-present and dependable right-hand man, called into action to bail his brother, Kayce (Luke Grimes), out of trouble.

Kayce found himself in custody after law enforcement managed to trace the bullets he had used to kill two assailants back to him. But in typical lawyer fashion, Jamie warps, contorts, and bends the law just enough to tip the scales in his favor, leading Thomas Rainwater (Gil Birmingham) to proclaim that they'd been worried about the wrong Dutton. The episode was, for all intents and purposes, a sneak peek into his political ambitions and ploy to run for Attorney General to further his family's influence within the governing political bodies in the state.
