Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.
The featured article for Saturday, 5 September 2026, is 1923 season 2.
The second and final season of the American neo-Western and period drama television series 1923 was announced in February 2023. As a limited-run series, the program was not originally intended to extend beyond its initial eight-episode order. Season two was developed after its creator and showrunner, Taylor Sheridan, determined that the story needed more episodes to reach a proper conclusion. The series is a part of the Yellowstone franchise, and is a sequel to 1883 and a prequel to Yellowstone. 1923 stars Helen Mirren, Harrison Ford, Brandon Sklenar, Julia Schlaepfer, Jerome Flynn, Darren Mann, Isabel May, Brian Geraghty, Amina Nieves, Michelle Randolph, and Timothy Dalton.
Sheridan wrote all eight of the season's episodes. The series revolves around a generation of the Dutton family, and is set in Montana, in the United States, between 1923 and 1924. The Duttons face the struggles of winter and attempt to protect their ranch against those who wish to develop and profit from the land. Other storylines revolve around a newlywed couple who have been separated and are attempting to reunite, and a fugitive Native American schoolgirl who is being sought in Oklahoma and Texas. Some arcs include fictionalized versions of real people and events.
Similar to the first season, the production team planned on filming most of the season in Butte, Montana, beginning in June 2023, but delays caused by the 2023 Hollywood labor disputes led to the moving of principal photography to Austin, Texas, and the surrounding areas, although some location filming took place in Montana. Recording began on July 8, 2024, and concluded in November; the show's cast and crew experienced difficulties with extreme weather in both regions. The second season received a budget of $22 million per episode; Ben Richardson directed all eight episodes, and Brian Tyler and Breton Vivian composed the score.
The season was released on the streaming platform Paramount+ from February 23 to April 6, 2025. Two soundtrack albums were released; the first on the day the season began and the second on the day it concluded, and home video sets were published in August. It received mostly positive reviews, particularly for its technical aspects such as acting, writing, costuming, cinematography, and political subtext; however, some commentators criticized the show's large cast, melodramatic feel, and a sadistic storyline featuring two sex workers. Season two was noted for its positive economic impact in Montana and Texas. It also set viewership records. The season received several accolades and award nominations, most notably for its locations, production design, and costumes, while media outlets pointed out its lack of Emmy Award nominations.
