After 400-Plus Days in Paramount+’s U.S. Top 10, Billy Bob Thornton’s Landman Suffers Major Streaming Setback Following Season 3 Delay
A long chart run ends
Landman is no longer in Paramount+’s U.S. Top 10 television chart. Before dropping out, the drama had spent more than 400 days in a row among the service’s most-watched shows.
That run was surpassed by several other titles cited in the report: South Park stayed on the chart for 467 days, Ghosts for 581, Everybody Loves Raymond for 837, and NCIS for 980. No other Taylor Sheridan series was reported to have matched Landman’s stretch.
The story behind Landman
The series stars Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy Norris and draws on Boomtown, a podcast by Christian Wallace. Its setting is the oil-producing towns of West Texas, where the pursuit of wealth shapes the lives of workers and powerful business figures.
The show portrays the oil boom as having consequences beyond the rigs, touching the climate, the economy and geopolitics. In Season 2, Tommy faces mounting pressure from M-Tex Oil, Cami Miller and his family ties.
Cast and viewing momentum
The listed cast also includes Demi Moore as Cami Miller, Jon Hamm as Monty Miller and Colm Feore as Nathan. Thornton is known for Sling Blade, Moore for The Substance, Hamm for Mad Men and Feore for The Umbrella Academy.
The chart exit marks a change after Landman’s lengthy presence among Paramount+’s top U.S. shows. The report links the moment to a Season 3 delay, but provides no details about the delay or what it may mean for the series’ return.
