How Does the Filter on VidAngel Work?
Wondering how VidAngel works? You’re not alone.
Several VidAngel users have been discussing how VidAngel’s filters will censor the Yellowstone series. For instance, how will it eliminate inappropriate language and censor the series’ many nudity and sex scenes?
VidAngel says its filters allow you to skip or mute content you’d rather not see or hear while watching TV series or movies, including the Yellowstone series.
You can also mute profanity so you won’t hear any bad words while watching TV.
In addition to muting curse words, you can also censor content by choosing to skip sex and nudity scenes, keeping your viewing experience squeaky clean!
In addition to setting general filters, you can also set more specific filters by choosing from VidAngel’s numerous sub-categories.
For instance, you can head to the Sex/Nudity/Immodesty category and censor sex scenes, but choose to leave in nudity (without sex) and kissing.
Or, you can go to Language and censor blasphemy but allow profanity.
Additionally, you can also set show-specific filters.
As the name suggests, these filters have been set according to a show’s content. Sometimes, VidAngel will even tell you what the inappropriate content will entail and which gender it involves, so you can make an informed choice about what to omit. Head to VidAngel’s article Setup Show-Specific Filters to learn more about how these filters work and how to use them.
Finally, you can enable parental control features to lock filters on all the account’s profiles. This prevents them from being changed/disabled without a passcode to ensure your curious teenager can’t adjust VidAngel’s settings to see content they shouldn’t. Head to Setup Parental Control Filter Locks to learn how to enable parental control features on your account.
Which Season of Yellowstone Can You Watch on VidAngel?
Looking to watch Yellowstone without the violence and nudity? If so, you’re in luck!
VidAngel allows you to watch all of the Yellowstone seasons from one to five using their service. So, you can watch the entire series from its pilot episode to its latest episode using VidAngel’s filters.
Due to the SAG-AFTRA writers’ strike, season 5 of Yellowstone is currently on hold at episode 8. The second part of the season, which will wrap up the series, is expected to be released in November of 2023. That said, this release date is strongly dependent on how the current strike evolves.
FAQ: Is Yellowstone Censored on Peacock?
Yes, Yellowstone is partially censored on Peacock.
However, it’s not completely edited the way you may watch it on VidAngel.
