Trivia
When the cowboys from Yellowstone Dutton Ranch go to help a neighboring ranch handle the branding of that season's new calves, the show depicts the ranchers using a propane rack to heat the branding irons to the proper heat for branding.

But modern ranchers freeze the branding irons instead of using heat, some using a mix of alcohol and dry ice, and others using the preferred process of freezing with liquid nitrogen, which is regarded as the safest and least painful.

Freezing the iron results in the brand showing up in the steer's fur as snow white fur, instead of burning leaving a severe third degree burn scar, by modifying the follicles under the area of the iron with frigid cold.

The freezing process results in a much cleaner brand that is easier to read at a distance. The frigid frozen cold of the brand traumatizes the hair follicles, and when the fur grows back, the follicles are only able to produce snow white fur against the darker surrounding fur.

Quotes
John Dutton: I know how you feel. I wished I didn't, but I do. I buried a son right over there.
Monica Dutton: I remember.
John Dutton: Blaming yourself, aren't you? Yeah, I did that too. Still do some days. I'll tell you something I've never told anybody. I had a brother for about 18 hours. His name was Peter. He was born early, and his little heart wasn't strong enough. Not much they could do back in those days. Not a lot they can do now. So, they just gave him back to my mother. The doctors hoped and we prayed and... neither worked. And it changed my mother, it hardened her. She never... she never tried to have children again. Years later, I was grown and Lee had just been born. Both my parents are looking at him, taking turns holding him. And my father got white as a ghost, looked at my mother and said, "Peter lived a perfect life. All he saw of this planet was you and all he knew was you loved him." That boy lived a perfect life, Monica. We're the only ones who know it was brief. All he knew was you and that you loved him.
Monica Dutton: Thank you.

Getting tired of Beth

Well, I'm just so fed up with Beth and her lack of character development over the 5 seasons we've had. I'm actively rooting for Jamie at this point, I wish he ran her over. Given how much he's been threatened , how much he's been put through, his actions just don't make sense for a 45 year old successful lawyer, who would be far more ruthless and definitive with his response.

The writers need to evolve with this ever reoccurring cycle as it's getting repetitive really quickly as well as unrealistic personalities. Season 5 has felt like an extended s4 so far with a lot of filler for good measure.
