If time is a river, as the oft-repeated phrase echoes through the second season of Prime Video’s mysterious, existential Western and metaphysical sci-fi series, the “Outer Range,” then the unrelenting flow of time is also an unforgivable force that stops for no man. Weirder and darker than ever, and yet somehow streamlined and more ruggedly focused, thanks to the series’ new veteran showrunner Charles Murray (“Deadwood,” “Hill Street Blues,” and “Sons Of Anarchy”), “Outer Range” continues to grip and mesmerize with its mind-bending, enigmatic blend of family anxieties, crisis-of-faith dilemmas, impending land rivalries, and the burden of keeping secrets.

Here is our Most Anticipated TV Shows & Mini-Series of 2024 (The Strike-Affected Edition!) feature. 2023’s WGA/SAG-AFTRA/AMPTP strikes were essentially the COVID-19 of 2020. While thankfully, they weren’t as physically deadly, the work stoppage did significantly affect many people in the business and their financial stability. What ties them both together more closely is the disruption of content and product. With streamers already cutting back, regressing on the streaming boom thanks to Wall Street’s reevaluation of their worth, and the strikes delaying a lot of shows for an entire year, the #AgeOfTooMuchContent might officially be coming to a close.

The streaming age might be in flux as we speak. The biggest story of the year, without question​​—which maybe some people don’t recognize as the biggest story of the year, but trust us, it was— was the Netflix stock crash of April 2022. After years of flying high, Wall Street suddenly turned on Netflix, turned on streaming, and started rethinking their evaluations of the profit margins on streaming. This news rocked the film and TV industry.

There’s good and bad news on the “Outer Range” front, Prime Video’s excellent, Western/metaphysical sci-fi show starring Josh Brolin, Imogen Poots, and an outstanding supporting cast. The good news: the critically acclaimed “The Outer Range”—which we adored, it’s one of the best shows of the year—but the bad news is that its original showrunner and creator Brian Watkins has been replaced. Instead, Charles Murray (“True Story,” “Sons of Anarchy,” “Luke Cage”), who has an overall deal with Amazon Studios, will come aboard as showrunner and executive producer for season two.

“Outer Range” might be a little hard to describe, but no, worry not, this is not “Cowboys & Aliens.” Well, it could be, but don’t worry, this will not be a big, silly mix-and-match genre blockbuster. Created by Brian Watkins for Amazon Prime, instead, the series is a mystery thriller drama about a rancher who uncovers a strange phenomenon in the wilderness of Wyoming.

There’s no denying that “Yellowstone” is probably the most popular scripted drama series on TV today. Not only has it become a major force over four seasons, but it has spawned multiple spinoffs, including the hit “1883.” Cowboys are cool nowadays. And Amazon wants to get in on that cowboy action with “Outer Range.”

However, as seen in the teaser for “Outer Range,” the series is very different than “Yellowstone.” Sure, it’s about cowboys with farms in the middle of nowhere.
