WATCH: ‘Landman’ drama rips into ABC’s ‘The View’ in mocking scene

December 15, 2025

From Variety: During the newest episode of the Paramount+ drama “Landman,” no love was shown to the daytime talk show “The View.”

In the episode, Tommy (Billy Bob Thornton) is urging his father, T.L. (Sam Elliott), to kill time around the house by watching a TV show and suggests “The View.” When T.L. admits that he doesn’t know what that is, Tommy explains it as, “A bunch of pissed-off millionaires bitching about how much they hate millionaires and Trump and men and you and me and everybody else they got a bee up their ass about. It’s pretty funny.”

T.L. responds, “Don’t sound funny.”

Tommy replies, “Well, it ain’t joke funny, it’s like ‘fart in church’ funny, you know what I mean?”

Taylor Sheridan, the director of “Landman,” was also the co-creator of the popular series, “Yellowstone.”

“Landman,” now in its second season, is a gritty show about the oil business, and frequently mocks the woke policies of the left. Sheridan reportedly inserts lines in the show that he would like to say himself.

In a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, Thornton said, “Taylor uses me in this show to say a lot of things that he wants to say. And I’m proud of that. Tommy’s monologues are absolutely how Taylor talks.”
