Netflix Series Territory Draws Comparisons to Yellowstone

The new Netflix series 'Territory' has garnered attention for its striking similarities to the hit show 'Yellowstone,' focusing on the family drama surrounding the Lawson family as they struggle for control of Australia's largest cattle station. Critics have praised the series, giving it an 80% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, while some fans have drawn direct comparisons to 'Yellowstone' and 'Succession,' calling it an 'Australian version' of these popular dramas. Despite the positive reception, viewer opinions are divided, with some considering it a lesser version of 'Yellowstone' and labeling it 'just Yellowstone with accents.' The show debuted strongly, landing in the top 10 on Netflix, but not all critics have been enthusiastic; some describe it as 'bloody' and 'soapy.' The cast has acknowledged the comparisons, emphasizing its distinct Australian identity, while Netflix has yet to confirm a second season. As 'Yellowstone' approaches its conclusion, 'Territory' may fill the void for fans seeking similar themes of power struggles in a rural setting.
