"Preston Clyburn is laughing at trout. Hah-hah, says the rugged retiree, up to his buttocks in river as a Yellowstone cutthroat sploshes obligingly into his net. I'm keepin' it, and you're cookin' it, he barks at his younger brother, Paul, who would rather Preston release the hapless vertebrate back into the wild but nevertheless respects his sibling's need to connect with his inner Cro-Magnon."
"Such is the power of the Madison valley, an untamed stretch of rural Montana that provides this six-part Paramount+ series with its title and a setting in which its characters can laugh, love and deliver homespun homilies while smirking in plaid."
"As the brothers are returning to Paul's ranch after another joint fly-fishin' session, his Cessna gets caught in a thunderstorm and slams into a mountain. RIP Preston and Paul. U are wiv da anglers now."
The Madison is a six-part Paramount+ series following brothers Preston and Paul who share a passion for fly-fishing in rural Montana. Preston, a rugged retiree played by Kurt Russell, and Paul, portrayed by Matthew Fox, enjoy their time together in the untamed Madison valley, laughing and bonding over their shared love of fishing. The narrative shifts between their peaceful Montana existence and the complications of Preston's family in New York City, including his daughter Paige and his wife Michelle Pfeiffer. The inciting incident occurs when the brothers' Cessna plane crashes during a thunderstorm while returning from a fishing trip, killing both men and setting the stage for the drama that follows.
