Genre: Drama

What's it about? "Landman" stars Billy Bob Thornton as Texas landman Tommy Norris.

Why you should watch it: Season 1 was a bit of a bumpy ride but ended on a high note with a great season finale. Season 2 might have been even more rocky, but it too managed to end things with a great season 2 finale. Stream all 20 episodes now as you get ready for season 3, likely coming in 2027.
