Phenomenal! Taylor Sheridan is the GOAT
Taylor Sheridan has done it again with his latest masterpiece, the Landman series. From the moment the first episode begins, you’re swept into a world that feels both raw and authentic, a hallmark of Sheridan's storytelling. His ‘Midas touch’ is evident in every frame, from the intricately woven plots to the rich character development that keeps viewers invested.The Landman series is a brilliant exploration of the complexities of land, oil, power, and the human condition. Sheridan has a unique ability to blend intense drama with poignant social commentary, and this series is no exception. Each character is meticulously crafted and the cinematography is nothing short of breathtaking. Each shot is thoughtfully composed, capturing the stark beauty of the landscapes while enhancing the emotional depth of the narrative. Sheridan’s keen eye for detail transforms the setting into a character of its own, adding layers to the story that resonate long after the credits roll.The writing is sharp, witty, and often laced with a deep sense of humanity. Sheridan tackles challenging themes with grace, making the audience reflect on issues that are both timely and timeless. The dialogue crackles with authenticity, and Billy Bob Thornton is stellar in his performance.In the film industry where this is a lot of terrible films somehow getting produced and where storytelling can often feel formulaic, Taylor Sheridan continues to push boundaries and redefine what television can achieve. The Landman series is a testament to his genius, proving once again that he is a master of his craft. This series deserves all the accolades and praise it receives, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Prepare yourself for an intense and emotional rollercoaster that will leave you craving more!

B B Thornton is Incredible; Facts, Fun, Money, Power!!
I really enjoyed being thrust within this series, kept my attention well. Lots of action and fun twist all about, some of the modern concept writing stuff, (Sex, Drugs, Rock & Roll) written well and insanely hilarious, as in the wife/exwife of Billy, she keeps you entertained with her outings. Billy Bob Thornton is incredible again. He is tough and he knocks it out of the park acting in this show!! Lots of facts to keep the curiosity up, through out the series. only disappointment for me, need more episodes!

Mr. Thornton never disappoints
From Sling Blade to Landman Mr. Thornton has never disappointed me. The one movie that took me by surprise the character he played in Tombstone - Johnny Tyler - I watched several times before realizing it was him! Anyway, in Landman it seems he's just being himself, not a character. True grit tough as nails with a tender spot for his daughter, worried hopes for his son and a passion for his ex-wife that may prove to slow burn him into destruction. I've learned quite a bit about oil and all the products I take for granted, but also about the wind turbines. So I appreciate Mr. Sheridan including good information on all that. All in all, the rest of the cast is damn fine, to storyline keeps me hookedand I can't wait for a Season 2 - maybe more? I don't see how this show could run out of material. Until there is another season, I'll have to rewatch Goliath for my Thornton fix, because that show is so darn good, rewatching is no hardship.

Love Billy Bob!
This show is well-rounded. Billy Bob really shines.it really does give you the nitty gritty behind the oil business, from the boss, the fixer (Billy Bob), the crew, the oil magnate's oblivious wife, to Billy Bob's kids. The characters are well developed so far, it's a nice mix of drama, with some comedic moments.Accurate depiction, right down to the danger of the job. I watched both episodes back to back. Sheridan has been developing some really amazing shows lately. Looking forward to the rest of the season.

Best New Shot in a LONG time!
This is the best new show in a long time. It's a drama but there are plenty of great comedic lines by the case and especially Billy Bob Thornton. Billy Bob is at his best in this show!Lots of gorgeous women (not a bad thing : - ) who also play their roles very well!Not heavy into politics or unwanted narratives...so far. Just great entertainment.If you are easily offended there's some humor that could offend you.Love this show!!!
