Taylor Sheridan’s Landman Officially Sets New Release Today

Taylor Sheridan’s Landman is about to get even easier to watch.

Taylor Sheridan, known for his Western dramas, continues to build his television world with the popular series Landman, available on Paramount+. The show boasts a strong cast including Billy Bob Thornton, Ali Larter, Sam Elliott, Demi Moore, and Michelle Randolph. Landman centers on Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton), who’s determined to make his oil company a success in the competitive West Texas landscape.

The second season of Landman will be available online starting April 20th, and it will include two new bonus features. One, Going Deeper: Inside Landman Season 2, offers a behind-the-scenes look at the cast and crew as they prepared for a more dramatic season. The other, Finding Character in Clothing, features costume designer Janie Bryant discussing how the show’s costumes help define each character.

Landman unfolds in the rapidly growing oil towns of West Texas, telling the story of those chasing wealth during a massive oil boom. This boom isn’t just changing the landscape; it’s having a huge impact on the climate, the economy, and global power dynamics.

The series Landman has proven to be a major hit for Paramount and Taylor Sheridan, consistently attracting large audiences. The second season premiered to record-breaking numbers, reaching over 9.2 million viewers worldwide in just two days – a huge jump of 262% compared to the first season’s debut. Critics also responded more favorably to season 2, improving on the already strong 78% rating season 1 received on Rotten Tomatoes to an impressive 83%.

Okay, so I’ve been catching up on Landman season 2, and honestly, everyone’s right – it’s a step up from the first season! Critics are saying it’s more exciting and really pulls you in, and I totally agree. Even ScreenRant’s Grant Hermanns pointed out that it’s a refreshing change of pace compared to Taylor Sheridan’s other shows, which are great, but this feels different – in a good way!

Taylor Sheridan has created a highly successful television lineup for Paramount, known for dramatic and compelling shows like Yellowstone and its expanding universe, including The Madison. These series consistently attract large audiences, achieve record-breaking viewership, and stand out even among other popular shows on the platform. Sheridan’s focus on well-developed characters and strong actors keeps viewers coming back season after season.

Taylor Sheridan is leaving Paramount, where he’s created hits like the Yellowstone franchise, to move to NBCUniversal. He’ll finish his work on current projects through 2028, as his new five-year contract begins on January 1, 2029. Reports suggest the move is due to disagreements about creative direction.

You can now watch Landman on Paramount+, and it will be available to buy online starting April 20th.
