Landman

This is a gripping series available on Peacock in the U.S. (and SkyAtlantic in Europe), starring the compelling Billy Bob Thornton as the protagonist, a seasoned operations director in the oil industry. The show delves into the complexities of running a major oil company, highlighting the dynamic between Thornton's character and his boss, portrayed by John Hamm, the younger, sharp-suited CEO.

The series is well-crafted, offering an insightful look at the oil business's challenges, with Thornton's performance being a standout. His character brings a depth that overshadows many of the supporting roles, although they serve well to flesh out the corporate landscape. The narrative smartly avoids oversimplification, providing a "Dr. House" level of smartness without tipping into caricature.

Landman not only entertains particularly through the lens of Thornton's character who has experienced both success and failure in his career. His presence on screen is commanding, adding weight to every line he delivers.

With eight episodes, the series provides enough to grasp the protagonist's depth and the industry's harsh realities. It's highly recommended for viewers looking for something to binge-watch or enjoy episodically. The show scores a solid 8.5/10, reflecting its quality and watchability. Whether a second season is on the horizon remains uncertain, but given its reception, it's likely fans will see more.
