Landman (TV series) - Wikipedia

Landman is set within the world of oil rigs in West Texas, where "roughnecks and wildcat billionaires are fueling a boom so big it’s reshaping our climate, our economy, and our geopolitics."[1] The lead character, Tommy Norris, can be abrasive, as is the out-of-town lawyer investigating a fatal accident early in the season.[2]


I think MOST "information" derived from memes, TV shows, and movies is misleading or false.
So...yes.

Is that one of those 2nd-rate Yellowstone copycat shows?
What is TV (and movies for that matter) but loads of spin-offs and facsimiles?

Haha.  I have that intro theme as a song on my phone.  I was too young to really watch it, but I remember the opening credits like they're burned into my brain.

5, 10, 20 years ago, would you ever see Boise State and Colorado hosting 'Noon Eastern' kick offs?     TV!

Just a lack of imagination.  So many re-makes.  Hell, walk down a toy aisle in Walmart or Target.  80% of it is re-treads from the 80s and 90s.

Enjoying the hell out of this show so far.
Yeah, they've been pushing the shit out of it while watching Yellowstone, and it looks interesting. Billy Bob is always interesting. 

Damn, does that mean we'll have to keep Paramount+ a little longer?

Yep.  Billy Bob is worth it so far.

Any time I sense some political message on TV or in movies, I just figure it's biased, misleading, or flat false.

I watched "The West Wing" some (from 1999), it was replete with progressive impracticable BS, like vague gun control nonsense.

Fake enough where many acquaintances consider Beth and Rip to be model spouses. Nothing could be further from the truth. 

If it were real life, everyone on that show would be serving multiple life sentences.
