“Yellowstone” (CMT, Paramount, 8 p.m.) already had a hit prequel in the first season “1883” Now here’s a second spinoff from Taylor Sheridan. Like its predecessor, its title tells you when it was set, “1923” (CMT, Paramount, 9 p.m.). And like the others, this one has an eye-opening cast, with Harrison Ford as ranch patriarch and Helen Mirren (of all people) as his wife. The rest of the cast includes James Badge Dale, Robert Patrick and Timothy Dalton. At this rate they are likely working on a third spinoff set about 1963.
