A modern-day tale of seeking fortune in the world of West Texas oil fields
Watch the most popular movies and TV shows from writer-director Taylor Sheridan on IMDb, ranked by user ratings. A landowner, at least one who works in the oil industry, will act as a middleman between exploration companies and landowners. The role of landowners is usually to negotiate and contract with landowners with mineral rights to lease those rights to the company they represent.
Refers to CBS News Sunday Morning: Episode #4424 (2022)
They basically manage the land and obtain the leases so that oil and gas can be extracted. As foremen on the construction site, they build roads, worker accommodations (camps), oversee the installation of excavating machines, and the drilling of the well, especially in remote locations. They are also part repairmen, problem solvers, and facilitators.
I’m excited and some strong characters
Love this show, a good different story that keeps your attention. Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy is great and likes to learn more about how the oil industry works. Jon Hamm is so cool and Demi Moore as his oil tycoon wife is inspiring because she’s beautiful.
Another tough guy, tough life, Sheridan
Smith and always good theme song. I only have Paramount to watch their stuff and I’m thankful this show is on top of Yellowstone. Billy Bob’s Tommy is surely a better actor or on par with John Dutton.
