Landman landed on Paramount+ and became one of the most talked-about premieres of the season. Billy Bob Thornton plays Tommy Norris, a fast-talking dealmaker working for a small independent oil company in the Permian Basin of West Texas. Created by Taylor Sheridan in collaboration with journalist Christian Wallace, the series carries the working-class grit and moral complexity that defined Sheridan's best work on Yellowstone.
What Is Landman About?
A "landman" is an oil industry term for the person who negotiates drilling rights, resolves legal disputes, and manages the human chaos that surrounds active oil field operations. Tommy Norris does all of this — navigating between roughnecks, wildcatters, cartel operatives, and corporate suits — while his personal life threatens to collapse around him.
The supporting cast is outstanding: Ali Larter, Jon Hamm playing against type, Demi Moore, and Michelle Randolph. Season 1 runs ten tightly constructed episodes.
Where Is Landman Streaming in the US?
Landman is a Paramount+ original series, available exclusively on Paramount+ in the US. Paramount+ plans run from $8.99 to $13.99 a month depending on the tier (October 2026 prices), and every tier carries all episodes of Season 1.
Is Landman Worth Watching?
For fans of Taylor Sheridan's previous work, the answer is straightforwardly yes. Landman is tonally different from Yellowstone — more overtly comedic in places, more interested in the mundane bureaucratic chaos of the oil business — but the underlying interest in American capitalism, working-class survival, and the gap between how people talk and what they actually mean is entirely consistent.
Billy Bob Thornton is at the top of his game. Jon Hamm delivers one of his best supporting performances in years. If Yellowstone, Tulsa King, or 1883 appealed to you, this is essential television.
