According to Metro, someone else posted on Instagram: 'On the last episode and it's such a damn good show!!! its giving Yellowstone vibes for sure.'
Staten Kirkland, played by Duhamel, has to deal with the passing of his wife and managing his ranch.
Speaking about his character, Duhamel told Tadum: '[Staten's] dealt with a lot of grief, although I'm not sure he really dealt with the grief very well.
'When he comes back to the world of living, as he says in the show, he realizes that there are a lot of unexplored opportunities and relationships that he probably never even saw before the loss happened.'
While creator and producer Blair described how the show 'leans into a more bygone era Western' style.
She said: 'I wanted to do something that felt big and escapist and had the romance, but also had the drama, and the mystery wrapped up in one package.'

James Argent parties at Megan McKenna and Oli Burke's wedding after ex breaks silence on assault

James was spotted smiling as he danced with Megan at her wedding to the former Celtic star. James 'Arg' Argent was spotted dancing with Only Way Is Essex co-stars at Megan McKenna's wedding, just hours after his ex issued a heartbreaking statement. On Friday evening, Nicoline Artursson broke her silence for the first time since her ex James admitted to domestic violence. Arg admitted his crime at a court in Spain where he received a six-month suspended prison sentence and a two-year restraining order. Argent pushed his former partner down a flight of stairs, causing the injuries. ‌ On Saturday, Nicoline made a statement saying "fractures on my body have finally healed but I'm wounded inside", and just hours after that, James was at Megan's wedding, where she tied the knot with former Celtic star Oliver Burke, writes The Mirror. ‌ On his Instagram page, Arg shared a clip of him dancing with Megan at her wedding. He wrote: "Congratulations to the beautiful Bride, My dear friend @meganmckenna who got married to the lovely @oliverjburke yesterday. "I can't tell you how much it meant to me, That you wanted me there on your special Wedding day. We danced together just like old times in Nu Bar Loughton when we were kids. He added: "We always supported each other in those TOWIE days & remained friends ever since. You've blossomed into an amazing woman. You're a fantastic mum & you're going to make a great wife! And you're a much better singer than me haha. Love ya." ‌ In her heartbreaking statement, Nicoline explained more about that night. She wrote: "I was brutally thrown out of our new home in the middle of the night wearing only my pyjamas. I opened the door to let him in and only minutes after I found myself laying down on the stairs outside our house. My clothes and belongings were being thrown out from the balcony down on me. I was injured." She also added: "A gentleman does not abuse you and end up in jail and call you the love of his life. A gentleman does not blame you for his actions. A gentleman will confide in his partner, family and close circle of friends, keeping them close and safe. A gentleman chooses you always and leaves the past in the past - including exes. "Life is to be lived together and not to please people who want to take advantage of you. At the end of the day, fame can only do so much - it's all about being strong and growing together. Life is simply not a reality TV show, life is real. I have tried to understand why. I have cried so many tears thinking about the way he chose to hurt me. He said he loved me and I believed him and here we are." *For confidential support, call the 24-hour National Domestic Abuse Freephone Helpline on 0808 2000 247 or visit If you or your family have lost a friend or family member through fatal domestic abuse, AAFDA (Advocacy After Fatal Domestic Abuse) can offer specialist and expert support and advocacy.
