The series Landman

[Topspinmo]

On paramount plus for those of us that got it. IMO really good series. Billy Bob Thornton Pretty good in this IMO.

[Altavia]

Agree, even a little bit documentary ;-)

If you liked Landman, you’ll also like Tulsa King.

I couldn’t get through it. The daughter and wife drive me crazy.

Yep, loved Tulsa King, waiting on next episodes of 1923.

I don’t know? But that might be typical of high maintenance woman???? :faint:

All of Taylor Sheridan's shows are great, but I agree that TK and Landman are prob my 2 favorites.

That's by design. The characters are well developed to come off exactly that way. They're like the modern day TX version of CA Valley Girls from the 80s, who were even more annoying and yet also accurately portrayed.

They actually started to grow on me toward the end of the season. There wouldn't be near as many laughs without them.
As for Tulsa King, not for me. I just get sick of Stallone being the same character for the last 45 years.

Ever notice how Taylor Sheridan's series are drawn out long footage of open landscape scenery
that could be shorten up somewhat?
Between the commercials and long panoramic views, a hour series could be condensed into 1/2 hour.

He's a good writer though

Maybe he knows many never seen that landscape? I waiting for him to make cameo?

There’s a low maintenance woman????!!!!!😁

[talonip]

Too much focus on annoying wife and daughter. I mute it when they start a scene .

[airstreamingypsy]

I really enjoyed Landman, but I enjoy all of Sheridan's shows. As for the wife and daughter, I thought they were very important parts of the show. Thornton's character is always dealing with one crisis after another, and would be very one dimensional but his whole character changes with the two women. He's very soft and quite endearing with them, which makes him irresistible.... and funny.

Next on my list after Silo and Lioness.

[Dhahran]

Ditto--Can't stand thewife and daughter .

Love this show! Billy Bob Thornton is so good in this as he is in most of his roles. I love the educational aspect of the show also.

[chrisinva]

Excellent writing. Love the music & don't mind the long time spent on the landscape shots; explains to me how desolate TX can be.
Great acting by Billy Bob & his tv son. Wife & daughter are terribly annoying.

If you can handle the frequency of the F word, it's an enjoyable & sometimes informative (for me) series.

It was a good series but…if someone doused you with gasoline would you really light a cigarette without catching on fire? That scene was a bit too violent for me…and then there was that cigarette…it lost its credibility for me.

Good writer, but I wish he and his steroid-fueled ego would keep his own self out of his shows. He has to inject himself by writing a character for himself into his products. He did it as Travis in Yellowstone, and I understand he does it again in Season 2. Blowhard.

Maybe. But if someone that talented wants to write himself a small cameo, I take no issue. Better way to get there than using the casting couch.

[maistocars]

Yep, loved Tulsa King, waiting on next episodes of 1923.
Liked them all and if you're waiting for 1923, watch Yellowstone first - very good as well!

[PhilR]

Daughter and wife gratuitous and honestly embarrassing the daughter is in hi school? Lend nothing to plot.

The music videos in Sheridan shows are indeed time eaters, he has an obligation to Paramount to fill so many hours of programming

Agree!!

[Bilyclub]

He also wrote the two Sicario movies if you’re bored one night.

If you had read through this whole thread you’d have seen there are some who are still watching, or others who haven’t started yet, so this spoiler was inconsiderate.

Billy Bob Thornton is a nut job and not a very good actor. Has anyone noticed how all of the channels that used to be free with their TV shows are all slowly switching over to some service that you have to pay for?

Very good show, but it would be better if they could do with more moderate language. I am getting tired of all the cussing on TV. I do too much of that myself.

Agree, with the fumes I wouldn’t have match near, but IT’s dramatically portrays chain smoker IMO. Gasoline in open environment dissipates rapidly to fumes in open large building. But cloths would still saturated and producing fumes in real world.

Agree just makes bad habit harder to stop…

I couldn't disagree more. I think he is an excellent actor.

This model appears to be the future, so you may as well make peace with it. It's better than paying for 100 cable channels when you only watch 2.

[kschwi]

I am on episode 7 and I am enjoying it so far. Billy Bob is very charismatic and carries the show. If you haven't started it yet, give it a shot.

[shaw8700@outlook.com]

I loved this show!

I’ve watch every episode of 1883, 1923, Yellowstone, Landman, and Tulsa King. Waiting on 1943????

Billy Bob Thornton is a nut job and not a very good actor. ...
All the best actors have something weird about them. Mental health issues, grew up in a cult, grew up in a household of polygamy, etc. Part of running away from one's self to become someone else makes acting attractive to some people with, ummm, less than mainstream views.
