An infographic Yellowstone map reveals which character from the popular western-drama is the most hated by viewers across the United States.
A Yellowstone infographic maps out the most hated character from the popular western series by state. Created by writer-director Taylor Sheridan, Yellowstone stars Kevin Costner as John Dutton, the head of a family who has owned and operated the largest ranch in Montana for over a century. Throughout the drama series, the Dutton family is pitted against various threats from those who wish to seize control of their valuable land including corporate interests, the neighboring Broken Rock Indian Reservation, vengeful enemies from John’s past, and even from members of the family.
A map shared by Wide Open Country and compiled by Valencia Theater Seating reveals the most hated Yellowstone character by state.
Using 120,000 tweets from all across the United States, the map shows that Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly) is the most disliked, coming out above all other characters in 32 states. Jamie Dutton (Wes Bentley) follows with 15 states. Monica Dutton (Kelsey Asbille) and Summer Higgins (Piper Perabo) complete the list with two and one state respectively.
Why is Beth Dutton So Disliked
Although John prides himself on his land and capable family, he has struggled to keep them under his roof and in his control. Beth is John’s emotionally unstable yet fiercely loyal daughter who will do anything to support and protect her father. Unfortunately, sometimes her impulsive actions wind up hurting the ones around her.

There is rarely a middle ground or compromise for Beth. If she wants something, she will do whatever it takes to achieve her goals, knocking over anyone standing in her way to get it. Beth’s actions have tested the family numerous times, significantly contributing to Jamie’s inevitable betrayal. Her way of discussion and negotiating tends to end in foul language and violence, as was seen with her brutal brawl with John’s love interest, Summer.
When Yellowstone season 5 returns, Beth will find herself at war with Jamie as well as Market Equities. Her actions are also beginning to challenge Rip’s (Cole Hauser) resolve, but his ability to absorb whatever problem she throws at him, and convert that into love will likely help keep Beth from doing anything too self-destructive. With Yellowstone returning this summer, audiences have to be patient to see if their most hated character can redeem herself.
