Landman — How to Watch the Billy Bob Thornton Series

Landman how to watch, in short: it is a Paramount+ original, so Paramount+ is where every episode streams officially, in the USA and in most countries where the service runs. It is not on Netflix, and it is not included in a standard Prime membership. Billy Bob Thornton plays Tommy Norris, a crisis fixer for a West Texas oil company. Below are the device steps, how to check an IPTV library during a free trial, and what to watch next.

What Is Landman About?

A "landman" is the oil-industry go-between who negotiates drilling rights, settles disputes and deals with the human fallout around a working field. Tommy Norris does all of that for an independent oil company in the Permian Basin, juggling roughnecks, lawyers, cartel pressure and nervous executives. Thornton plays him with dry, weary humour, and much of the show's appeal comes from his monologues about how the oil business really works.

The supporting cast includes Jon Hamm as the oil company boss Monty Miller, Demi Moore as his wife Cami, Ali Larter as Tommy's ex-wife Angela, and Michelle Randolph and Jacob Lofland as his children. The series was created by Taylor Sheridan (Yellowstone) and Christian Wallace, and it grew out of the podcast Boomtown.

Where Landman Streams

Paramount+ releases new seasons weekly, so if you prefer to binge, wait until the season finale has aired and then watch it in a weekend.

How to Watch Landman on Any Device

• Smart TVs: The Paramount+ app is on most Samsung, LG, Android TV and Google TV models. For IPTV, use a compatible player app; our walkthrough on installing a player on a Samsung TV covers Tizen models.
• Fire TV Stick: Paramount+ is in the Amazon Appstore. IPTV players install through the Downloader app.
• Apple TV, iPhone and iPad: Paramount+ and several IPTV players are in the App Store.
• Android phones: Install Paramount+ or IPTV Smarters Pro from the Play Store for watching on the go.
• Windows PC or Mac: Paramount+ runs in a web browser. For IPTV, use a desktop player or VLC with your playlist link.

Tips for Watching Landman

• Turn on subtitles. Thornton's rapid Texas delivery and the noise around the rigs can make lines hard to catch.
• Watch in order. The oil company's money troubles and the cartel thread build across episodes, so it does not work well out of order.
• Check the content rating. It has strong language, violence and adult themes, so it is not one for younger viewers.
• Use a wired connection for HD and 4K. The night shots of burning wells and the wide desert landscapes show compression quickly on a weak signal.

A Quick Guide to the Oil-Field Jargon

The show rarely stops to explain its terms, so a few basics help in the first episodes:

• Landman: The person who secures the rights to drill on someone's land and handles the deals and disputes that follow.
• Mineral rights: Ownership of what lies underground, which in Texas can be held separately from the land on the surface.
• Roughneck: A worker on the drilling crew, doing the heavy and dangerous physical work on the rig.
• Wildcatter: Someone who drills in unproven areas, taking big risks in the hope of a big find.
• Permian Basin: The large oil-producing region of West Texas and south-east New Mexico where the show is set.

Is Landman Worth Watching?

For fans of Taylor Sheridan's other work, yes. Landman is lighter and more openly comic than Yellowstone, and more interested in the paperwork, logistics and risk behind oil money, but it shares the same interest in working-class survival and American business. Thornton carries the show, and Jon Hamm gets some of the best scenes. If the monologues are not your thing, give it two episodes before deciding.

Other Taylor Sheridan Shows to Watch Next

• Yellowstone: Five seasons of the Montana ranch drama. In the USA it streams on Peacock; our guide to finishing Yellowstone with Season 5 explains why.
• 1883: The Yellowstone prequel following the Dutton family west.
• Tulsa King: Sylvester Stallone as a New York mobster sent to Oklahoma.
