Let's be honest, while Yellowstone is a very compelling, beautifully shot and well acted series, the character choices and motivations are often unrealistic and pretty ridiculous. Plus, the most interesting character flaws and themes aren't always explored as deeply as they could be. Kinda subjective of course.
However, I would argue that this 4th season is actually the most well written and grounded of the series, despite filming difficulties. In fact, I thought this finale was one of the best of the series, mainly because it really explored the main characters' flaws in a very coherent way while moving the plot forward. Not to mention it had some of the most powerfully written scenes between them. It also didn't feel to me like there was difficulty juggling the various storylines, unlike most of the series. The pacing was excellent and the direction was some of the best I've seen in the series. It makes me wonder about and look forward to the next season.
Other thoughts: Piper Perabo's performance is outstanding, and Jennifer Landon's character work as Teeter is phenomenal.
I find Jimmy to be the most realistic and relatable main character in the series. Jefferson White is underrated and has given the most consistent yet evolving performance out of anyone in the show. He doesn't even look like he's acting; when he responds to what's happening around him, or when he has a realization, you can see him process information like a real life human being. His moments are some of the most powerful and I hope to see more of his journey.
