Taylor Sheridan’s new series, ‘Landman’, is out now.

The first two episodes were released on Sunday evening and are the award-winning filmmaker’s latest neo-Western tale.

In “Landman,” Sheridan, who created the hit series “Yellowstone” and “1923,” explores a “modern story about seeking fortune in the world of oil rigs,” according to a synopsis for the series.

Set in the proverbial boomtowns of West Texas, the new show is based on the 11-part podcast called “Boomtown,” which exposed the world of oil rigging in West Texas.

What are the first two episodes of “Landman” about?

The first episode of “Landman” introduces Norris (Thornton), a classic Texas oilman whose job is to keep the oil companies’ businesses running and keep the oil pumping no matter what. Viewers get a glimpse into Norris’s world, including Monty, his boss played by Hamm, and his family life, including Norris’ dynamic Larter, who plays Angela, his ex-wife and their children. The first episode ends dramatically with an explosion in the oil field.

The second episode of “Landman,” titled “Dreamers and Losers,” focuses on Thornton’s handling of the tragedy while also handling the family affairs as his daughter Ainsley, played by Michelle Randolph, moves in.

How can I watch ‘Landman’?

“Countryman” is available to stream on Paramount+ with new episodes every Sunday.

It will contain 10 episodes.

What else has Taylor Sheridan created?

Prior to “Landman,” Sheridan is best known for his work on the hit western “Yellowstone,” “Mayor of Kingstown” and “Tulsa King.”

Sheridan has also had success in film, including an Academy Award nomination for his writing of the 2016 western “Hell or High Water.”

What has the cast said about the show?

Thornton described his first conversations with Sheridan about recording “Landman” in an interview with Collider.

“He said I’m writing a program for you. It’s called ‘Landman.’ He told me what it was about and I said, ‘Wow, that’s interesting, we haven’t seen that world yet,'” Thornton said.

Thornton also talked about allowing humor into his role as Norris.

“I think that was one of the nicest things about being able to play this role: that sometimes I’m funny because that’s how people are,” Thornton said.

Larter, who plays Angela, Norris’s ex-wife, praised Sheridan’s writing in an interview with Nerd Reactor, saying that Sheridan encapsulates the entirety of his characters.

“He writes to you in the dark of the night when you’re lying in bed when you have your fears and anxieties,” she said.
