Paramount Network's "Yellowstone" is finally a major television awards contender after four seasons thanks to the 2022 Screen Actors Guild Awards. The family western drama is nominated in the top category of ensemble in a television drama alongside "Succession," "Squid Game," "The Morning Show" and "The Handmaid's Tale." The nomination is the first major awards recognition for "Yellowstone," which up until now only boasted one Creative Arts Emmys nomination for production design for a narrative contemporary program (one hour or more). "Yellowstone" was also nominated at the American Society of Cinematography awards in 2019 for cinematography in a regular series for commercial television.

"There's no bigger compliment to an actor than being recognized by their peers. Congratulations to our incredibly talented cast on this wonderful and well deserved nomination," series creator Taylor Sheridan said in a statement.
