What to Know

Critics Consensus

Landman plumbs much of the same territory as other Taylor Sheridan-penned series, but having Billy Bob Thornton on hand turns this Texas crude into highly watchable fuel.

If I’m not necessarily Sheridan’s target audience, it’s still fun to debate his hero in my head. Go to Full Review

Landman, whoa -- Landman makes Yellowstone look like PBS. Like everything in Texas, it’s both bonkers and compulsively watchable. Go to Full Review

Landman would be a lot better if Angela were sometimes likable, if Cooper and Ariana got more time, but mostly if Tommy ever made a mistake, rather than getting proved right, over and over again, about his vision of the world. Go to Full Review

LANDMAN is a completely gripping series that is wild, hilarious, and I never thought I could learn so much about oil! The best part about this show is seeing Ali Larter shine again in a role she was clearly born to play! Go to Full Review

Landman is about good men trying to do a good job, if not an entirely honest one. It’s a strong start to Sheridan’s post-Yellowstone world – and has the potential to be just as successful. Go to Full Review

Nikki S. @travelingtrader 2d Brilliant dialogue and storyline. Superb actors. See more Neal T @Nealt 2d On the nose and in your face drama that starts the engine at full throttle and drops it straight into drive without backing off the gas. I laughed, cried, and related to way too many of the events in this show. See more Phil D. @phildub 2d A great start to a new series. Wonderful until the end. See more jimmy c @superman1983 3d This Just as AWESOME as YELLOWSTONE The Cast Players there rolls so so so BRILLIANTLY The Acting is TOP Notch Every Episode is Very Easy to Follow and Understand Don't Change a thing it's Perfect So Looking Forward to MANY MORE SEASONS There is so much to say about this TV SHOW that it would take so long to right See more Eric H. @Huckdaddy31 4d Love the characters and love that it’s filmed on location! Billy Bob is incredible! See more Alexander L @AllReviews 4d Landman is polished, well-acted prestige TV, but its biggest issue isn’t storytelling — it’s ideology. Taylor Sheridan’s oil-industry drama doesn’t merely depict fossil-fuel culture; it often endorses a right-wing, climate-skeptical narrative by presenting industry talking points as fact. Across the season, characters confidently dismiss renewable energy as inefficient, overpriced, or environmentally useless — including claims that wind turbines never repay their carbon costs and that solar and wind are far more expensive than oil. These assertions echo common conservative misinformation and contradict mainstream energy research, yet the series offers no real pushback. By framing these monologues as hard truths rather than biased perspectives, Landman blurs the line between character realism and propaganda. Strong performances can’t fully mask a show that mistakes fossil-fuel mythmaking for insight. Slick, engaging and quietly misleading. See more Read all reviews
