Teeter made her first appearance on Yellowstone in season 3, episode 2, and was last seen in season 5, episode 8. Played by Jennifer Landon, Teeter is a pink-haired Texan who made quite an impression on Lloyd, Rip, and Kayce when she first showed up at the Dutton Ranch for work.
Given her background, Teeter’s character has a thick accent, but once she joined the Dutton ranch, it was clear that she was there to stay. Let us now explore the career and heritage of Jennifer Landon, the actress who brought Teeter in Yellowstone to life.
Who plays Teeter in Yellowstone?
Jennifer Landon, daughter of the late actor Michael Landon, plays the role of Teeter in Yellowstone. Talking about her father, who was well known for his roles in Little House on the Prairie, Bonanza, and Highway to Heaven, Jennifer once told Closer Weekly that Michael’s best role was that of a dad, saying,
“He was always so present as a father. He was just the best!”
Jennifer’s onscreen debut as a child was in an episode of her father’s show, Highway to Heaven.
Before starring in Yellowstone, Jennifer played the role of Gwen Norbeck Munson in the soap opera As the World Turns. The show won her three consecutive Daytime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Younger Actress in a Drama Series, and she appeared in almost 500 episodes.
Following this, Jennifer’s soap opera career continued as she starred in popular soaps like The Young and the Restless and Days of Our Lives. She landed a recurring role in FBI: Most Wanted, opposite Yaya Gosselin, a young actress.
Her other roles in television include shows like Banshee, House, Chicago Med, The Orville, Animal Kingdom, Helstrom, etc. Jennifer has also starred in a number of films, including Rabid Weight Loss (short film), The Front Runner, I Spit on Your Grave III: Vengeance Is Mine, and Brothers.
What happens to Teeter in Yellowstone?
In Yellowstone, Teeter tells Travis that she is from the Arkansas side of Texarkana. Since starting at the ranch, her character has been shown to be able to hold her own among the males. She also indulges in playful flirting with Colby, who only pretends to not be interested in her.
Eventually, when John decides to dismiss all the female hands from the ranch as they were leading to men indulging in competitive violence, a furious Teeter approached Rip and John and begged them to keep her at the job.
She pointed out how well she had contributed to the ranch’s growth and claimed that she was no source of trouble. When she mentioned that she also had achieved the Yellowstone brand, John decided to keep her.
After that, as she stayed, she and Colby ultimately became a couple. However, due to the demands of the job, Colby and Teeter had to part ways, but they officially proclaimed their love for each other before they did so.
Season 5, part 1, saw Teeter going to Texas with Rip. There are already speculations of her starring in the spin-off show 6666, as she is from Texas. While it was widely believed that her character could feature in 1883, another spinoff of Yellowstone, she was not in it.
Yellowstone can be streamed on Paramount+.
