Landman Renewed: TV Drama Series from Taylor Sheridan
Landman, the hit series from co-creators Taylor Sheridan and Christian Wallace, is returning for a second season on Paramount+. The show was a massive success in its first season, ranking as a top ten SVOD original series across all subscription streaming services in Q4. Starring Academy Award winners Billy Bob Thornton and Demi Moore, the premiere episode garnered 35 million global streaming viewers and broke records for Paramount+.
The show made history as the most watched global premiere and finale of any series on Paramount+, claiming the number one spot as the most engaging and the top household favorite. According to Chris McCarthy, president and CEO of SHOWTIME/MTV Entertainment Studios and Paramount Media Networks, Landman’s success comes from Taylor Sheridan’s exceptional talent for tapping into current cultural themes. The show explores Neo-Western concepts like rugged individualism, ambition, and working-class struggles against the backdrop of modern debates on energy, climate change, and economic growth.
Landman’s popularity has contributed significantly to Paramount+’s success, helping the platform become the second most-watched SVOD in the US for original hours watched in Q4. Alongside other hit series like Tulsa King, The Agency, Lioness, and Dexter: Original Sin, Landman has solidified its place as a fan favorite.
