If Sheridan would just allow a couple of people in to give notes, I think his shows would improve dramatically.  The premises of all of them are terrific.  But he needs someone to say -- "would that young widower really be calling out Cooper's awkwardness around breast feeding?  Is that something you think women do?  What's the point exactly?"

He writes female characters to what men think they should be like and not how they are.

Things Taylor Sheridan likes:
-Miserable men
-Truly awful women
-Quippy dialog that isn’t as clever as he thinks it is
-Drone shots
-Whatever crap is popular on the Sirius country stations these days
-Obscene new-money wealth as a status marker
-Not having technical / industry advisors
-Time-filling shots of people doing…things

Feel free to add yours!

This is an entertaining watch but I can't tell you what the overall plot is.

 Billy Bob plays a redneck Deadpool character  commenting on a stupefyingly implausible series of situations in a west Texas oil town while occasionally taking a break so Ali Larter can shake her tits at the camera. If her tits need a break before Billy Bob is ready to resume his drawling snark, we get the daughter to shake her tits at us.  Just need to drop the son and replace him with scissors scenes between the lawyer and the bereaved Latina widow and it would be perfect.

Taylor Sheridan basically uses the blacksploitation formula (Superfly, Black Caesar) and applies it to the rural white man.

Another weird criticism but he should dial back the profanity. Specifically the f-bombs. I’m a huge fan of the word fuck, it’s irreplaceable in certain situations, but when it’s every other word it cheapens what could be pretty effective dialog.

Pure lazy writing, IMO. All of his shows have this in it, but this one is definitely over-the-top.

Taylor Sheridan shows are good out of the gate but fade quickly and become mostly rubbish.  

This right here. They are good enough to get you hooked. You know you should quit watching but the urge to finish something you started is too strong. You complain about how crappy it has become but yet you welcome the next episode in order to just get it over with a certain amount of remaining interest and curiosity.

I'm not trying to be an asshole here, but it's in line with folks I know who have worked on pipelines and in O&G, granted most of them were 20/30s vs BBTs old ass but they dropped f bombs a LOT more than necessary.

Dialing them back even like 25 percent would be an improvement though

Ali Larter does look really great though. I find the daughter kinda generic, which is probably good since I’m easily old enough to be her dad.

While she looks great and is perfectly cast for that role, the writing is basically the Beth Dutton character.

I'm infatuated with her belly button.  Its, like, both an outtie and an innie.  It needs further study.
