The Yellowstone spinoff 1883 found a new audience when it began airing on Paramount Network. As the 10-episode season wraps up on August 13, fans of the series are sure to be left wanting more. With a confirmed second season of the 1923, it's natural to wonder about the future of the Faith Hill and Tim McGraw-led show.

Will there be a season 2 of 1883?

A representative from Paramount+ confirmed what we were fearing: "The 1883 chapter has ended and the next installment is 1923." Lawman: Bass Reeves, the upcoming show from creator Taylor Sheridan, will serve as a continuation from the same time period, but the storyline is not expected to overlap.

Observant fans noticed that the official 1883 Instagram feed transformed into an official 1923 account last week, with the announcement, "One journey ends... #1883TV…another journey begins. #1923TV"

Fans were excited about the 1923 news but disappointed that 1883 was over. They left comments like, "I wish they had more of 1883, actually see them settling and living on the land to really see the beginning of their dynasty" and "I need more closure from 1883."

Will Anyone from 1883 Appear in 1923?

The newest installment, 1923, is available to stream on Paramount+. The cast includes Harrison Ford, Helen Mirren, Darren Mann, Michelle Randolph, James Badge Dale, Marley Shelton, Brian Geraghty, Aminah Nieves, Julia Schlaepfer, Brandon Sklenar, and Jerome Flynn.

The Yellowstone universe frequently features flashbacks, so we wouldn't be surprised to see some of the 1883 characters pop up in 1923 or even Yellowstone (after all, Tim McGraw's James Dutton made an appearance in a Yellowstone flashback). But, so far, the only character who has appeared on both shows is John Dutton, Sr. He was played by young Audie Rick in 1883 and will be played James Badge Dale in 1923. Isabel May, the actress who portrayed Elsa in 1883, serves as the narrator of 1923.

We're sad to hear 1883 is officially over, but the anticipation of 1923 and new episodes of Yellowstone should get us through!
