    There are a few major returns in the world of TV this week, and a couple of noteworthy finales.

    "Yellowstone," Taylor Sheridan's megahit, is finally returning for the remainder of its fifth season after behind-the-scenes drama derailed production on the maybe-final episodes of the series. "Arcane," one of Netflix's biggest animated series ever, is also back.

    "Disclaimer," the mystery-thriller from Oscar winner Alfonso Cuaron, wraps up this week, as does the HBO series "The Penguin."
