A contemporary tale of the search for fortune in the world of the West Texas oil rigs. Landman, at least one who works in the oil industry, will act as an intermediary between exploration companies and landowners.
Basically, they own the land and secure leases to drill for oil and gas
Generally, a landowner’s job is to negotiate and finalize contracts with landowners who hold mineral rights to lease those rights to a company they represent. As foremen on a construction site, they build roads, living quarters for workers (man-camp), assemble digging machines and drill the well itself, especially in remote areas.

They are also part fixer, problem solver and helper. I have to start by saying that I am a huge fan of almost anything Taylor Sheridan (Yellowstone, Mayor of Kingstown, 1923, 1883, Tulsa King, Lioness, Sicario, Hell or Highwater, Wind River, etc.).
This is another Sheridan hit
He hits home run after home run and Landman is no different. Landman is set in modern day Texas, where everyone from billionaires to roughnecks are trying to get rich in the oil industry.
I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good new series, especially if you are a fan of Taylor Sheridan
The series follows Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton) as he tries to take his company to the top during the oil boom.
