The Duttons are taking over Montana politics according to the latest trailer for the new season of Paramount Network's original drama series Yellowstone, which debuts November 13.

Yellowstone stars Kevin Costner as  John Dutton, who -- in the series' fifth-season trailer -- is sworn in as Governor of Montana. The trailer also previews the ensuing chaos that immediately follows, according to the network. 

Yellowstone, cable's most watched scripted series, also stars Luke Grimes, Kelly Reilly, Wes Bentley, Cole Hauser, Kelsey Asbille, Brecken Merrill, Forrie Smith, Denim Richards, Ian Bohen, Finn Little, Ryan Bingham and Gil Birmingham.

The series, created by Taylor Sheridan, follows the exploits of the Dutton family, who control the largest contiguous cattle ranch in the United States and are in constant conflict with an expanding town, an Indian reservation, and business rivalries, said the network. 

Yellowstone is executive produced by Sheridan, Costner, John Linson, Art Linson, David C. Glasser, Bob Yari and Stephen Kay.■

Oxygen investigates the tragic and suspicious deaths and disappearances of numerous Indigenous women in Montana as part of a new documentary special debuting Nov. 12.

The 90-minute special, Murdered and Missing in Montana, focuses on three young, Indigenous women -- Henny Scott, Kaysera Stops Pretty Places and Selena not Afraid -- whose deaths around the Northern Cheyenne and Crow Reservations remain a mystery to residents and authorities, according to the network. The deaths are part of a spate of reported cases of missing Indigenous girls and women in Montana in recent years.

Oxygen SVP of development, unscripted Cori Abraham said the documentary -- produced by KT Studios -- has been in the works for several years in an effort to tell the story behind the tragedies and to seek justice for the victims. The documentary features interviews from the victims’ family members, local law enforcement, forensic experts and local activists, according to the network.

Here's what Abraham and Oxygen want you to know about Murdered and Missing in Montana.

The special has been in development for more than three years. “KT Studios pitched the show to us around three years ago regarding 27 or so Native American women who had gone missing in Montana. We did a deep dive on it and came up with these three cases that we specifically focus on, but obviously there are many others. There's a lot of conflicting issues with jurisdictions and native American tribal land ... to be honest there just isn't enough law enforcement covering such huge territories in Montana.”

The special shines a light on missing women cases that haven’t received a lot of media attention. “Each time somebody goes missing or is murdered it's a terrible tragedy, including Gabby Petito. Some tragedies obviously get some more coverage than others, but to be truthful all of these tragedies are equal. It’s really unfortunate that these women haven't received a lot of attention. It's not that others shouldn't get attention -- it's just that these women should as well.”

Murdered and Missing in Montana adds to Oxygen’s investigations into missing women of color. “Oxygen has been covering women of color specifically who have gone missing and murdered in the past. We did a special on the [2011 Missouri] disappearance of Phoenix Coldon. We've done one on the (1990) disappearance of the [Dannette and Jeannette] Millbrook twins in Augusta, Ga. Both of those stories were really important, and now 28 indigenous women from roughly the same area have been either murdered or are missing. When we have an opportunity to shed light on something like that it's something that we have to do.”

Oxygen is looking into other cases of missing women around the country. "We're not only looking into Montana, but we're also looking at other states like Washington because there are just so many unfortunate cases where this is happening. In the special, the three women were all found in similar circumstances a few weeks after they went missing, so it just seems like there was some commonality with these murders. Unfortunately, there are many more like them, so it's our obligation to shed light on the bigger issue at large. We’re featuring the tragic stories of Henny, Selena and Kaysera, but there are many, many others.”

A Montana telecom services provider -- 3 Rivers Communications -- is the latest small operator to pull the plug on video services, telling its nearly 1,800 customers that it will no longer provide television services beginning Oct. 31, according to Montana TV station KRTV.

3 Rivers, based in Fairfield, Mont., provides telephone, broadband and TV services to about 15,000 customers across the Big Sky state. But its video customer count has been declining steadily for years.

In an interview with KTRV, 3 Rivers marketing director Don Serido said that competition from streaming video and from bigger satellite-TV services made it increasingly difficult to compete.

“We’re getting out of the TV business and we’re really going to focus on providing the best broadband we can to all of our cooperative members,” Serido told KRTV. “That’s really what people want and need.”

Many smaller operators are de-emphasizing video services in favor of more profitable broadband services, with CableOne, the Phoenix-based cable and broadband provider, being the most prominent.

3 Rivers said it will honor all discounts and bundle pricing until the TV services are discontinued.

Democratic Montana Gov. Steve Bullock has signed an executive order that means suppliers of government broadband services must not block orthrottle web traffic or engage in paid prioritization, essentially restoring the net-neutrality rules the FCC rolled back last month.

Bullock signed the order in front of computer science students at his old high school, saying: "There has been a lot of talk around the country about how to respond to the recent decision by Federal Communications Commission to repeal net-neutrality rules, which keep the internet free and open. It’s time to actually do something about it."

Bullock called on other governors to follow his lead.

The governor's order stipulates that to receive a contract from the state, a broadband provider "must not block lawful content, throttle, impair or degrade lawful internet traffic on the basis of internet content, engage in paid prioritization, or unreasonably interfere or disadvantage the users’ ability to select, access, and use broadband internet access service."

The Helena, Mont., newspaper Independent Record was reporting that the state has about $50 million in contracts with providers that include Charter Communications, CenturyLink and AT&T.

The FCC's net-neutrality regulation rollback preempts state attempts to write their own internet regs, but a spokesperson was not available to comment on how that would apply to the executive order.
