How and When You Can Watch Every Episode of ‘Marshals’

If you’ve been feeling a massive, cowboy-hat-sized hole in your life since the main Yellowstone saga wrapped up, I have some incredible news for you. The wait is officially over. Kayce Dutton is back, and he’s trading the ranch for a badge. The new spinoff, simply titled Marshals, has finally galloped onto our screens, and let me tell you—it’s everything we hoped for and a little bit more.

But with the Yellowstone universe spreading across different networks and streaming apps faster than a wildfire in the Montana brush, it can be a real headache trying to figure out where to actually sit down and watch the thing. Don’t worry, I’ve done the legwork for you. Whether you’re a die-hard cable subscriber or a dedicated cord-cutter, here is exactly how and when you can catch every gritty second of Kayce’s new journey.

What is ‘Marshals’ All About?

Before we dive into the “where” and “how,” let’s talk about the “what.” Marshals picks up about a year after the events of the Yellowstone finale. We find Kayce Dutton (played by the ever-brooding Luke Grimes) leaving the East Camp and the heavy legacy of the Dutton Ranch behind.

He’s joined an elite unit of the U.S. Marshals Service in Montana. Think of it as a blend of the high-stakes family drama we love and a classic, weekly procedural. Kayce is using those Navy SEAL skills and his deep-rooted cowboy intuition to hunt down the most dangerous fugitives in the Big Sky Country. It’s faster-paced than the original show, but it still has that Taylor Sheridan soul.

Where Can You Watch ‘Marshals’ in the USA?

In a surprising twist, Marshals isn’t following the exact same path as previous spinoffs like 1883 or 1923. Instead of being a streaming-only exclusive from the jump, it’s actually a CBS Original. This is a huge win for folks who still have a digital antenna or a basic cable package.

Watching on Broadcast TV (CBS)

The primary home for Marshals is CBS. If you have a traditional cable subscription or even just a good old-fashioned antenna, you can tune in every Sunday night. It’s a return to “appointment television,” which feels strangely nostalgic, doesn’t it?

Streaming Live via Paramount+ Premium

If you’ve ditched the cable box but still want to watch the episodes as they air, Paramount+ with SHOWTIME (the Premium plan) is your best friend. This tier allows you to stream your local CBS station live. So, when the clock strikes 8:00 PM on Sunday, you can be right there with the rest of the world.

The Streaming Catch: Paramount+ Essential

Now, here is where it gets a little tricky. If you have the Paramount+ Essential plan (the one with ads), you cannot watch the show live. You’ll have to exercise a little bit of patience. New episodes typically drop on the service the day after they air on CBS. So, if you’re an Essential subscriber, Monday morning is your time to shine. Just stay off social media on Sunday night to avoid those pesky spoilers!

International Streaming: How to Watch Outside the US

For my friends in the UK, Canada, and Australia, the process is actually a bit simpler. Since CBS isn’t a “thing” over there, Marshals typically lands directly on Paramount+ as a global original. Most international regions see the episodes drop on Mondays, shortly after the US broadcast.

The Full ‘Marshals’ Season 1 Schedule

Consistency is key when you’re trying to keep up with a show this intense. Marshals airs on Sundays at 8:00 PM ET/PT on CBS. Here is a look at the release calendar for Season 1 so you can clear your schedule:

Episode Number	Title	Release Date
Episode 1	“Piya Wiconi”	March 1, 2026
Episode 2	“Zone of Death”	March 8, 2026
Episode 3	“Road to Nowhere”	March 15, 2026
Episode 4	“The Gathering Storm”	March 22, 2026
Episode 5	“Lost Girls”	March 29, 2026
Episode 6	“Out of the Shadows”	April 5, 2026

The season is expected to run for 13 episodes in total, taking us well into the spring.

Are Other ‘Yellowstone’ Favorites Returning?

You bet they are. While the show focuses on Kayce, he’s not entirely alone. We get to see the return of Brecken Merrill as Tate Dutton, Mo Brings Plenty as Mo, and the legendary Gil Birmingham as Thomas Rainwater. Seeing these faces back on screen feels like a warm (if slightly dangerous) hug.

However, there has been a lot of chatter regarding Kelsey Asbille (Monica Dutton). Without giving too much away for those who haven’t started, the premiere addresses her absence in a way that has left the fanbase… well, pretty emotional. Let’s just say Kayce’s “new path” is paved with some significant personal loss.

New Faces Joining the Hunt

It’s not just a reunion; we have some heavy hitters joining the cast too. Logan Marshall-Green plays Pete Calvin, the leader of the Marshal unit and a fellow Navy SEAL. Their dynamic is one of the highlights of the series—it’s two men who have seen way too much trying to find a version of peace through justice. We also get Arielle Kebbel as Belle Skinner, who brings a fresh, sharp energy to the team.

Can You Watch ‘Marshals’ for Free?

Technically, yes! If you have a digital antenna, you can pick up your local CBS station for free over the air. It’s the most “cowboy” way to watch, honestly—no subscriptions, just a signal and a screen.

Additionally, many live TV streaming services like Fubo, DirecTV Stream, and Hulu + Live TV offer free trials. If you’re savvy, you could potentially catch a few episodes during a trial period, though you’d eventually need to commit to stay current with the full season.

The “Why” Behind the Move to CBS

You might be wondering why this isn’t on the Paramount Network like the original Yellowstone. It’s all about the numbers. CBS saw how well the reruns of the original series performed during the strikes, and they realized that there is a massive audience on broadcast TV hungry for this kind of modern Western. By putting Marshals on CBS, they’re reaching millions more homes than they would on cable alone.

Tips for the Ultimate Viewing Experience

To truly enjoy the cinematic landscapes of Montana (even if some of it is filmed elsewhere these days!), I recommend watching on the biggest screen you have.

1. Check your Local Listings: Sometimes sports or awards shows can push the start time back 15–30 minutes.

2. Paramount+ Downloads: If you’re traveling, the Premium plan lets you download episodes to watch offline. Perfect for a long flight or a weekend in a cabin with no Wi-Fi.

3. Sound Matters: The score by Brian Tyler is hauntingly beautiful. If you have a soundbar or good headphones, use them.

Conclusion

Marshals is more than just a spinoff; it’s a high-octane expansion of a world we’ve come to love. Whether you’re watching live on CBS every Sunday at 8:00 PM or catching up on Paramount+ on Monday mornings, you’re in for a wild ride. Kayce Dutton has always been the heart of the Yellowstone saga, and seeing him finally take center stage is a treat for every fan. So, grab your gear, settle into your favorite chair, and get ready—Montana justice is coming, and it doesn’t take prisoners.
