'Yellowstone' Fans Split On If Major Character Should Die

"Yellowstone" fans are incredibly torn on whether or not Beth deserves a bloody and violent end.

The hit neo-Western series from Taylor Sheridan is slated to return for the rest of season five in November, and the upcoming episodes will serve as the show's ending.

I've been predicting for years that it will be an absolute bloodbath by the time the credits roll for the final time. I expect very few main characters to survive.

In fact, I think the only ones likely safe are Tate, Monica and Kayce. Everyone else's fate is up in the air. Plenty of people want to watch Beth Dutton die.

"Yellowstone" fans torn on how Beth's story should end.

A viral Reddit thread has "Yellowstone" fans debating whether or not John Dutton's daughter deserves a brutal ending or not.

"Please, God, make the writers give Beth her comeuppance or worse before the series ends. So evil, destructive, and filled with nothing but hate," the thread states.

It was off to the races from there with fans debating whether or not she deserves to get gutted. Below are a few of the responses:

• "...and filled with nothing but hate"... and vodka !
• I actually love the character. It is such a shift to see an angry,mean Daddy’s girl. She does have these soft sides but super buried under all that trauma. Very complex character and the actress is fabulous.
• Even though she was blown up, beaten to a bloody pulp, and has the trauma from her childhood, you still want her to have her comeuppance? She’s definitely twisted, but I like her because she doesn’t take crap off anybody and she’s a badass.
• Nah too many badass bitch-wannabes living vicariously through her
• Beth is a total b*tch and not enjoyable to watch anymore. I hope Jamie kicks her ass.
• It’s incredible. Every scene she’s in ends with her spouting off some variation of "f*ck you, I’m the devil!" and then either storming off, or the other person storming off. Except for her scenes with Rip, where she tears up and has some variation of "f*ck me, I’m the devil," followed by Rip spouting some sort of cowboy platitude.
• I didn't like her at first but she really grew on me. She's so resilient.
• I’d like the Dutton family as a whole get some comeuppance. Their plot armor is absurd. Nothing truly bad ever happens to them.
• Beth is nothing but her trauma and except for how she treated Jamie( before he deserved it) Beth is one of the most interesting characters on the show. You never know what she is going to do and she is bada#s.
• Beth has a lot of reason to feel that way. If anyone deserves a comeuppance, it’s Jamie.
• It's Jamie who needs to get comeuppance and Beth needs to be able to close that page of her life.
• I used to feel the same way but after finding out why she hates Jamie so much, I actually kind of started to like her and understand why she is the way that she is.
• Beth is one of the best parts of this show!! I keep praying they kill that tool Jamie off. 

Now, should Beth die? I'm going to give my answer, and final ruling. Yes, Beth absolutely has to die. The entire show is about her being a ruthless soldier for her father.

It makes no sense for her to be alive once the credits roll for the final time. Plus, the story is much better if Rip survives and Beth dies.

That'd be a fate for Rip that's significantly worse than death. It would be beyond cruel for John Dutton's most loyal servant.
