Right off the bat, there’s going to be a new episode this weekend: 1883 Season 1, Episode 3 arrives Dec. 26 at 3 a.m. ET on Paramount+.
The streaming service announced today that the launch of this weekend's episode was the most-watched premiere of any original series on the platform, including when it was known as CBS All Access.
They didn't provide any precise figures, but that shouldn't come as a surprise. When it comes to exact numbers, the bulk of streaming services are a little hesitant to share them.
1883 Season 1, Episode 3 Spoilers
The series' first two episodes spend a lot of time world-building and introducing us to a variety of characters. This gang of travelers shares a shared purpose, but their friendship is frail.
1883 Season 1, Episode 3 is titled River, and it will continue the story of Shea Brennan's caravan, which includes James Dutton and his family. The cowboys are well aware that they are stronger in numbers, as numerous threats await them on their journey north.
These threats could put the lives of the caravan's innocent passengers in jeopardy, so Shea, Thomas, and James must be vigilant at all times. The trio may devise a strategy to ensure their safety. However, they may disagree on some issues.
Furthermore, the immigrants are inexperienced in such terrains and may cause the journey to be delayed. As a result, the caravan is likely to make a brief stop near a river. However, for a variety of reasons, tensions within the camp may be high.
Shea may have to take a tough stance to resolve problems within the camp, further fracturing the group of travelers. Ennis is expected to continue flirting with Elsa, and romantic sparks between the two could erupt.
Is an 1883 Renewal On the Way?
That appears to be a given conclusion, and there are already plans in the works. We believe that all signals lead to the expansion of the Yellowstone universe; there has even been speculation of a Four Sixes spin-off, but none have been confirmed as of yet. For now, we wait.
