Yellowstone season 3 recently premiered on Paramount Network, and it already shows where Josh Holloway's Roarke Morris is heading. He is smart and knows how to get whatever he wants. As the series progresses, he'll become a big adversary to the Dutton family, but Beth won't back down on him.

Roarke will be the family's biggest threat in Yellowstone season 3. Beth recognized this man's scheme the moment she saw him stepped on the land. He has understanding when it comes to property rules, particularly fishing in the river. 

Moving forward, Roarke will engage himself in a duel with Beth. Speaking with TVLine, Holloway has something to say about this particular subject. He said his character is fascinated by her and he had never met a girl like that.

For Roarke, Beth is sophisticated with a sexy cowgirl thing -- a mixture of badass and a beautiful cowgirl. There's a lot of fun coming in Yellowstone season 3 as these two characters square off. He is different from the Beck brothers, and he could shake up the Dutton family.

As for whether or not fans should be scared for Beth and her sweetheart Rip, Holloway said they should be worried a bit. He explained that if ever his character really wanted Beth, then he'll probably take care of Rip on the side and he has the power to do that.

Holloway said Roarke isn't afraid and intimidated by Rip since he has already dealt with this kind of thing. As Yellowstone season 3 goes on, we're also going to find out why he is not afraid to hire help -- especially if needed.

Meanwhile, the premiere ratings surge to a new record. Deadline reported that the first episode generated a total of 4.2 million viewers, which is a huge increase from the premiere of the second installment. In addition, it sets record in key demographics, which includes viewers 18-49 and viewers 25-54.

According to CarterMatt, when factored in multiple airings at the Paramount Network and simulcasts on Pop, TV Land, and CMT, the premiere drew 6.6 million total viewers. Reportedly, this makes the most-watched cable premiere so far this year.

There are a lot of factors as to why the series generated impressive numbers. Some of these include a good promotional campaign, impressive cast list, and the addition of Holloway. And because of the good ratings, the series may continue delivering more stories in the future.

Yellowstone season 3 airs every Sunday night on Paramount Network.
