A modern-day tale of the pursuit of fortune in the world of West Texas oil rigs
See the top movies and TV shows by writer/director Taylor Sheridan on IMDb, ranked by user ratings. A landman, at least one who works in the oil industry, will act as a go-between between exploration companies and landowners. Typically, a landman’s job is to negotiate and finalize agreements with landowners with mineral rights to lease those rights to the company they represent. Essentially, they manage the land and secure leases so they can drill for oil and gas.
They are well-written and entertaining
Like a foreman on a construction site, they build roads, worker housing (a human camp), set up drilling equipment, and drill the well itself, especially in remote locations. They are also part fixer, part problem solver, and part facilitator. Reference CBS News Sunday Morning: Episode #44.24 (2022). Obviously, I love Taylor Sheridan’s shows.
It’s very gratuitous
Right now I would happily watch anything with his model attached. But what’s up with the girl in her underwear and her horrific sexualization? It’s extremely weird how uncomfortable she is with it. It’s almost so off-putting that I don’t want to watch.
The ex-wife is just ugggh
I’m invested in the story so far. I also don’t understand why this woman is so unbelievable. It’s really a head scratcher. Is the show just for drawing men?
I love Billy Bob
He’s always a plus.
