Please, for Season 2 - Lose the narration or at least....

I think most of the narration of this series is horrible - it's been a hodgepodge of cliched 'been there done that' and the best thing in future seasons is to get rid of it. Or at least, move it around to different characters.

Heck, even the old TV show Rawhide would bounce around the opening narration a bit to different characters.

Elsa is not a compelling main character I agree. In fact none of the Dutton's are interesting. They should focus on Sam Elliott's character.

Also, the narration device is kind of weird considering what happens in the Season ender. How are we hearing her voice exactly?

Via a Ouija board?

The actress that played Elsa was such a bad choice for the narration. By the middle of the season I completely zoned out on whatever she was saying. She just sounds so unnatural. I think any of the other main characters would have been a better option.

LaMonica Garrett would have been the perfect candidate

Well this didn't end so well. Forty years later in 1923 and I still have to hear that voice. Good god almighty, won't she just die already?

Lol I felt the same way.

Taylor Sheridan has an odd idea of what type of female we like to see. In Yellowstone we have to endure Beth's hysteria and childish behaviour. In 1883 we have to watch Prairie Barbie.
