Taylor Sheridan Says He Makes TV for Audiences, Not Critics or Emmy Awards
By
Dave Nemetz
Summary
Taylor Sheridan, creator of Yellowstone and its expanding TV universe, dismisses TV critics and awards recognition, stating he makes content for a broad audience rather than for critical acclaim. He argues that his shows resonate with millions of viewers who don't see themselves represented in typical prestige TV, and that he prioritizes storytelling that connects with everyday people over winning Emmys or pleasing critics.

· 3 pulledI'm not trying to win Emmys. I'm trying to tell stories that connect with people who feel like they don't have a voice.
I don't care what they think. I've never cared what they think. I make shows for the people who watch them, not for the people who write about them.
The critics don't understand what we're doing because they're not the audience. They're looking at it through a lens that doesn't apply.
