Is Landman' Coming Back for Season 3?

"Big day, Landman fans! Billy Bob Thornton's performance as Texas oil man Tommy Norris was nominated for Best Actor in a Drama Series by the Critics Choice Awards. While we wait to find out if ol' Billy Bob can beat out Noah Wyle (The Pitt), Mark Ruffalo (Task), and many other strong contenders come January 6, 2026 when the awards show airs, fans have even better news to celebrate."

"Landman is officially renewed for season 3. Paramount announced that the Taylor Sheridan drama will return for a third season this week following impressive viewership numbers. According to the network, the season 2 premiere broke viewership records on Paramount+ by achieving over 9.2 million views in just its first two days on the streaming service. That's over a 200 percent increase in viewership from the season 1 premiere, Paramount reports, making Landman season 2's premiere the most-watched debut for any original series on the platform."

"We barely skimmed the surface in season one and, after season two, I feel like we're still just skimming the surface, showrunner Christian Wallace recently told The Hollywood Reporter. This world is so rich West Texas, oil and gas, Fort Worth, the upstairs downstairs of this whole thing. It's such fertile soil for storytelling. Season 2 plans to dive deeper into the story as the season continues, including Elliott as Tommy's father and Garcia as the series new villain."
