I was hoping it was a spinoff of The Wire.

Amazing. Had no clue being a Landman was so dangerous.

So great casting and visuals and a plot full of holes?

Commuting in Houston is no joke sir.

Hamm and Billy Bob could read the dictionary to one another and it’d be a compelling scene. So it should be good despite Sheridan.

The Railroad Commission ain't no joke.

JR make an appearance?

I’ll give the show some leeway. There are different kinds of landmen, and there are different kinds of companies. I’ll stick with it unless they try to portray landmen as some of Blackwater private security force. 

Violence on a lease or a drillsite is just insanely rare. Hunting and firearms are often explicitly forbidden. It’s observed because if you violate the lease everybody is out of work. 
 

The crime problems usually come from transient workers/hanger ons off the clock.

But he quit drinking and sticks to beer.

I’m a Sheridan fan outside of Yellowstone which my wife loves.

We usually know what to expect with his stories.

Looking forward to this.

Apparently my SiL and nephew will be in this show as well, I knew they were in shots with Billy Bob but it didn’t know what show he was filming

A show about a field landman would probably not have much mass appeal.

Follow around some 40-something problem drinker as he visits courthouses in scenic locations like Carthage, Big Spring, and Cuero. After he puts in a couple hours, the drama really amps up as he heads to the Chili's in the parking lot of the Hampton Inn he's staying in and attempts to romance the recently-divorced bartender with 4 kids. One episode is just him driving back all day on a Friday to his sad little apartment in San Antonio. But hey, 75 cents a mile reimbursement plus day rate!

…all while posting on Surly Horns under the name of…?

I told my dad about this (he's had over 40 years in the oil bidness) and his first response was "so this is going to be a courthouse drama, right?  Except instead of a a courtroom, he'll be in the basement looking through filing cabinets?"

In today’s episode, Don Draper forgets his 4 digit code to use the copier in Carrizo Springs and the fat elderly Mexican ladies get annoyed and then look it up for him.

First two episodes on P+ now.

Do not hate. Can relate to the lawyer roommate. "I gotta know."
