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

Marco L @decatur555 5d Landman is an entertaining and solid Taylor Sheridan series that feels related to Yellowstone but still has its own identity. Instead of ranches and family legacy, this one is built around oil, labor, money, and the brutal machinery of an industrial world. It does not have the same tragic weight as Yellowstone, but it moves well, pulls you into its setting, and stays highly watchable. Billy Bob Thornton is the key. He gives the show charisma, rhythm, dry humor, and enough presence to carry even the weaker stretches. The series is not flawless: some storylines are less compelling, some characters feel underwritten, and Sheridan falls into familiar habits now and then. But when it clicks, it really works. Tough, engaging, and led by a terrific central performance. See more Thomas L @RT27694363 Apr 3 My wife was watching it and I just started watching it with her in the middle of the episode. It took me 20-30 minutes for me to figure out that this is propaganda piece by oil companies. Went online to check it and here we go - API( American Petrolum Institute) spend million on advertising it and Paramount mostly paid for it( Larry Ellison one of the biggest Trump supporters who also owns CBS and recently Trump gave him TikTok). Majority of movies used to be the sanctuary for greater good messages. Now even that is taken away from us by oligarch billionairs paying back fracture what they gain thank to Trump. Dumbing down Americans( that's what this series does) is the very last thing this country needs a help with. Billy Bob Thorton - amazing acting. Rest of the A listers fairly good but all supporting cast( wife, daughter, lawyers, insurance agent) -mediocare at the very best, See more George K @RT70810130 Apr 1 Great writing and story arc. Very solid acting as well. One of the best series out there. See more Robo N. @robonoggin Mar 30 This one sure surprised me, because I’m generally not interested in this type of subject matter. It hooked me right away, and when I reached the end of the first season I was so thankful there was another available. If I had to complain about something, I’d say that Ali Larter’s character was difficult to endure. Angela Norton’s level of insecurity borders on insanity and is almost painful to witness, but that portrayal lends something to the story. Ali did a good job with her. See more Jerry S. @jstme123 Mar 27 First season grabbed me from episode 1 all the way threw. Really shows the other side of the oil industry in a very clever way. Billy Bob Thornton is perfect. See more Gary F @gazmo2000 Mar 21 This is clever, funny, interesting and demonstrates modern family. See more Read all reviews
