I'm a little late to the party, maybe, but started watching the series "Landman" (on Paramount+) last night. Have only seen the first episode,
but I'm hooked already. Looks like it's gonna be excellent.

Interested in others' opinions on this series...

This show is fantastic and deviates well away from the typicl Taylor Sheridan norm of drama and violence. It's mostly a ton of drama, but incredbily well acted. Billy Bob was meant for that role.

Cool, glad to hear that, and was pretty sure that was the general
consensus for those who've watched it. Have always liked Billy B.

Thanks for the input, I look forward to continuing this series!

Yeah but it becomes a parody of itself in the 2nd season and also
the logistics doesn't make sense. or does it. basically he says he's driving To places 5 hrs away and then comes back home and does other shit.

I've heard good things about it, but ifthat's the show about oil and what not I've also heard there's oil money
funding it, fwiw. That said, good tv ishard to come by these days.

It could be well written drama, but as it's essentially oil industry propaganda, I won't be tuning in.

Okay, well I will be.

You got something against the oil industry, for some reason?

Did you think "Yellowstone" was "big ranch" propaganda?

I highly doubt oil money is funding it. It doesn't glamorize the industry.
and everyone needs oil no matter what anybody thinks. they dont need to Promote oil.

people are so weird about this stuff.. even a bunch of professional magazine writers missed a pretty obvious thing.

if you think it's propoganda, and you know that the characters in the show would specifically prefer to spread that sort of propoganda, and then they say things that a person who works in the oil industry would.. why are you surprised?

several spent a LOT of time nitpicking the things people said in the show like "THIS IS WRONG! LOOK AT THIS RESEARCH!" ..

yeah sure buddy. whether it is or not, imagine the main character saying "well damn guys i think wind energy would be better, but i guess we're stuck with this.." over and over

it's just silly.

What exactly is your point?

Usually if a show is trying to come off as a serious drama of any sort, they'd not be so obvious about shilling for an industry, and maybe not try and spread garbage "info" that much of the audience doesn't critically think about or understand isn't fact. It's just absorbed.

There's nothing weird about calling out a show for being obvious propaganda when it's obvious propaganda. It would be weird to look at this show and not catch that.

bit thick are ya?

the point is that those things are *in character* for who is saying them. what you're suggesting is that a show ABOUT people like that shouldn't have characters that BELIEVE that sort of thing and say it out loud.

Is Dove-Net just full of angry edgelords? Good god, it's like the 3 characters on Dove would prefer if nobody ever came around.

Oh, so that would make it not propaganda then?

When those characters never get challenged?

Come on.
