With \u201cYellowstone<\/a>\u201d in the rearview mirror, but never entirely out of sight, \u201cLandman\u201d may be the most quintessentially Taylor Sheridan<\/a> show on TV right now. For Paramount+ subscribers, that statement might spark some debate, since there\u2019s rarely a time when a fresh season of one of Sheridan\u2019s shows isn\u2019t in rotation.<\/p>\n A fourth season of \u201cMayor of Kingstown<\/a>,\u201d starring Jeremy Renner<\/a>, is already in progress as \u201cLandman\u201d embarks on its second. Sheridan\u2019s Sylvester Stallone<\/a> vehicle \u201cTulsa King\u201d is winding up its third.<\/p>\n Out of the trifecta, \u201cLandman,\u201d based on the podcast series \u201cBoomtown,\u201d is the only one entirely written by Sheridan, identifiable by its florid, F-bomb-encrusted prose and inappropriate conversations that rocket past the realm of offensive into absolute hilarity as West Texas oil executive Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton<\/a>) bounces from one calamity to the next. Most involve something that\u2019s gone wrong in the fields leased by M-Tex, the company Tommy functionally runs while its owner nervously pores over paperwork in a glass-and-steel office.<\/p>\n But he is just as frequently sideswiped by family crises created by the disasters he married and birthed. The series premiere distinguished itself by trapping Tommy and his daughter Ainsley (Michelle Randolph)\u00a0in the most nightmarish father-daughter talk imaginable.<\/a><\/p>\n
