Landman
Created by Taylor Sheridan, Christian Wallace
Set in the proverbial boomtowns of West-Texas and a modern-day tale of fortune-seeking in the world of oil rigs, the series is an upstairs/downstairs story of roughnecks and wildcat billionaires that are fueling a boom so big it’s reshaping our climate, our economy and our geopolitics. From TMDB

It has several clips that have gone viral. Don't get your info from a fictional television show. youtube.com/shorts/3-Q-x...
positive · AI labelView post →Despite the propaganda (lies) spewed by so many including the show Landman, the average time it takes for a wind turbine to offset it's carbon footprint (construction, installation, maintenance, etc) is around 5 months. and a typical wind turbine typically generates energy for 25 years.
neutral · AI labelView post →Taylor Sheridan’s hit western series “Yellowstone” may soon be coming to an end, but the producer’s latest offering “Landman” might just be the show to fill that void.
neutral · AI labelView post →In Landman the show William Robert Thornton said wind turbines don’t pay back the embodied carbon in their materials and I regret to tell him that he’s wrong.
negative · AI labelView post →Landman is another Taylor Sheridan show with an overextended hero whose work suffers because he can't trust anyone else to do anything, from a creator whose work suffers because he can't trust anyone else to do anything. My review:
negative · AI labelView post →Here's a question. The popular show "Landman" is basically fossil fuel propaganda. Is there anything on TV, anywhere, making the case for clean energy?
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm halfway through season 1 of Landman. It's wildly entertaining but I find myself yelling "that's not true" at all the fossil fuel propaganda. Anyone else? I realized they can't make a show like that about renewable energy because the jeopardy is lower and there aren't as many injuries or deaths.
neutral · AI labelView post →I haven't seen the series, but how is the land man in LANDMAN doing these days? Does he continue to identify stretches of solid earth vs say, large bodies of water, correctly?
neutral · AI labelView post →Landman season 2 episode 9 is peak MAGA propaganda. It’s always been heavy, with anti-climate crisis nonsense - as you would expect in a show about the oil industry. But this one built up an Everest of cliche that made it just laughable.
negative · AI labelView post →Haven’t seen an ep but decided I’m gonna become a huge booster of the tv show Landman. Take me to Landman Fanland!
positive · AI labelView post →someone recently stated on here that the renewable industry needs its own equivalent of billy bob thornton spouting lies in an episode of Landman The idea of some wind industry veteran just spouting out 5,000 completely made-up facebook boomer memes about oil in a series is so intensely funny to me
neutral · AI labelView post →I maintain a bit of a Twitter presense to grief Energy investors and SpaceX stans. Anyways this Landman meme someone made popped up in my replies and it's so funny. The show is not just garbage propaganda it also leads idiots to believe stupid shit and invest in frauds (so it's not all bad)
negative · AI labelView post →I haven't actually watched Landman (hit tv show glorifying the oil industry...not sure I could stomach it), but I did catch the viral clip from the show, ranting about wind turbines that's floating around. With that in mind, this takedown from @climatetown.bsky.social is well worth your time.
negative · AI labelView post →Landman, a new TV series from Yellowstone writer Taylor Sheridan, includes examples of false and misleading writing about renewable energy and climate change technology, Newsweek's Fact Check team has discovered. www.newsweek.com/fact-check-t... @newsweek.com
neutral · AI labelView post →I STOPPED watching #Landman (the Paramount+ series led by Billy Bob Thornton) after his 'wind turbines are bad' speech. It was obvious evidence that the show's team are total shills for the oil industry. @climatetown.bsky.social's video does a great job of explaining www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBC_...
negative · AI labelView post →I spent an alarming amount of time over the holidays watching Taylor Sheridan's LANDMAN: television's most Rural Juror-coded show, which kind of gets the way that middle managers and CEOs in the oil & gas industry talk about themselves right newrepublic.com/article/1896...
neutral · AI labelView post →There’s a clip from the show Landman that’s gone viral, where Billy Bob Thornton’s character delivers some ‘hard truths’ about how rubbish wind turbines are. Here’s Rollie Williams, my favourite climate commentator, chewing up those arguments and spitting them out. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBC_...
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm six episodes into "Landman," on several people's recommendations. It's my first Sheridan-verse experience. Honestly, it's like this show was written by a 12-year-old, but a 12-year-old with an oil-fortune trust fund. It's not *good,* but it's pretty damn fun to watch.
neutral · AI labelView post →Hot crackers! A new Climate Town video is out and if you watched the bullshit spewing series "Landman", then you're gonna want to check this one out. Also: @climatetown.bsky.social 👈
neutral · AI labelView post →"Billy Bob drawls one deadpan crack after another about the sissification of modern society; the season’s opening scene sees him go off on a waitress about cornflakes ('You think our ancestors had breakfast?')." @clintworthing.bsky.social evicts Landman. www.rogerebert.com/streaming/la...
neutral · AI labelView post →Great video clip breaking down how climate denier talking points about wind power ended up in Taylor Sheridan’s new show Landman youtu.be/wBC_bug5DIQ?... ht @thedisproof.bsky.social
neutral · AI labelView post →That's the whole point of this. It's all fiction. Don't rely on fiction. It's a really good show. It's just make believe. Unfortunately MAGA are already making viral videos based on Landman "facts".
positive · AI labelView post →For a consulting gig, I am watching all ten episodes of Landman, the TV show about a oil-and-gas middle manager who fends off crises and keeps the oil pumping w magical amounts of testosterone and can-do Texas spirit. The show is misogynist, pedophilic, and deep into climate denial. Pray for me!
negative · AI labelView post →Landman is probably the worst show I have ever seen that I have continued into a second season with. The Newsroom was a more incisive commentary on its subject matter
negative · AI labelView post →Like I said, Sheridan may very well make hits in a new gig. I don't run TV. After all, they're about to air a second season of LANDMAN, and that show is terrible. I'm just saying, the same people created FRIENDS who created VERONICA'S CLOSET.
negative · AI labelView post →I canceled my subscription even though I won't be able to watch the shows I was addicted to, like Landman and the Yellowstone series of shows.

neutral · AI labelView post →This American Life just had an episode on social media streamers at the Portland ICE facility. Plenty of stuff there from those right-wing streamers to clip and show Trump to get whatever Miller and Bovino want. With dessert episodes of Taylor Sheridan’s Lioness and Landman shows.
neutral · AI labelView post →all the original series on Paramount Plus have names like MOBLAND and LANDMAN and MANMOB and LANDLAND and MANLAND and all the original series on Amazon Prime have names like "the summer I turned pretty" and "mother do you hear the geese ahonking"

neutral · AI labelView post →Landman might be the most aggressively straight and heteronormative tv show I’ve seen in like 15 years but damn if it ain’t fun to watch Billy Bob Thornton be a cranky miserable bastard and also Sam Elliot is his dad and Demi Moore is also there.
positive · AI labelView post →Haven't had the stomach to watch last night's show yet but absent from all 8 previous #Landman episodes is any mention whatsoever of the ever-worsening #ClimateDisasters we now all face. That's what makes #JohnHamm, #BillyBobThornton & #TaylorSheridan's show actually monstrous & unforgivable.
negative · AI labelView post →Review: There’s nothing on television like “Landman.” Taylor Sheridan’s oil country melodrama concludes its manic second season with a truly unexpected twist.
neutral · AI labelView post →Landman is a good show if you like commercials for oil companies
negative · AI labelView post →Really enjoying Landman on Paramount+
positive · AI labelView post →I've been watching "Yellowstone" creator Taylor Sheridan's newest show, "Landman." It is packed with fossil fuel propaganda and climate misinformation. Other than that, it's pretty good. I've got ideas for making it better. My latest @latimes.com column: www.latimes.com/environment/...
neutral · AI labelView post →I would put a fracking rig on top of every engaged species wildlife habitat just to watch another season of Landman that's how pumped I am by this show
positive · AI labelView post →If Taylor Sheridan didn’t exist, neither would Paramount+. Notice he’s got a new series coming up with them, Landman with Billy Bob Thornton, which I’ll definitely give a look. Very much enjoyed Mayor of Kingstown, Yellowstone and Tulsa King.
positive · AI labelView post →The American Petroleum Institute is running a "seven-figure ad campaign featuring real landmen" on Paramount+ and CBS to capitalize on Landman's gusher of "misleading nonsense." The latest in the long history of Big Oil weaponizing culture and entertainment to bury us in their cataclysmic bullshit:

neutral · AI labelView post →Spoke to @sammyroth.bsky.social at LA Times about the new TV series Landman - a show about Texas oil fields that's peppered with pro-fossil-fuel and anti-renewable energy misinformation. Spoiler alert if you're watching (I'm only halfway thru so I got spoiled) www.latimes.com/environment/...
neutral · AI labelView post →Well, I'm 8 minutes into Landman and it's the most radical anti fossil fuel show I've ever seen.
positive · AI labelView post →And whoo boy do I feel redeemed for calling Sheridan a neocon hack and this show a conservative prestige fake. By the time Landman has Thornton in bed with his teenage daughter, the whole gig was up.
negative · AI labelView post →Landman is an excellent new show. Love to see Billy Bob Thornton delivering those delicious Taylor Sheridan lines.
positive · AI labelView post →#Review: Taylor Sheridan's "Landman" is an engrossing 10-part series, set in the Midland-Odessa oil fields and filmed in Fort Worth and Weatherford, and should satisfy those enthralled by Sheridan's other projects such as "Hell or High Water" or "Yellowstone."

neutral · AI labelView post →I think that the reason I'm able to tolerate Landman is because it is unstinting in showing just how fucking miserable these people are. Republicans are actually mentally ill, eleventy different kinds of fucked in the head from their abusive upbringings, and by God they show that.

positive · AI labelView post →Landman is the perfect American TV show. You will understand my precise language later.
