The latest episode of Landman has set a tragic record for Taylor Sheridan’s hit series despite being the most intimate episode of the show to date. Landman Season 2, Episode 7, titled “Forever is an Instant,” is officially the lowest-rated episode of the entire series on IMDb at 6.4/10. The episode is also the first in the series to focus less on the oil industry and all its complicated trials and tribulations, instead shifting the narrative to be more relationship-driven. Most of the episode followed Tommy (Billy Bob Thornton) and Angela (Ali Larter) mending their relationship at the advice of Tommy’s father (Sam Elliott).

Landman' Just Set an Unfortunate Record With Its Most Thoughtful Episode Yet - IMDb

Landman Season 2, Episode 7 also features Cooper (Jacob Lofland) finally proposing to Ariana (Paulina Chavez), which is something that the entire season has been building towards. The two had their fair share of relationship troubles earlier in the season, but they’ve since smoothed things out, as both stars predicted they would. Even Rebecca (Kayla Wallace) gets a chance to show a softer side in Landman Season 2, Episode 7, due to her new relationship with Charlie (Guy Burnet). She thinks she may lose her job over it, but Tommy lets her off easy.

Landman Season 2 may have shattered the viewership records set by Season 1, but some fans are hate-watching the show instead of watching out of enjoyment. At the time of writing, Landman Season 2 holds a Rotten 42% score from fans on Rotten Tomatoes, well below the 64% held by Season 1. Critics agree that Landman Season 2 is a worthy follow-up, though, once again rating Taylor Sheridan’s oil drama at a Certified Fresh 78% clip.
Will ‘Landman’ Have a Season 3?

Landman's Most Hated Episode Is Actually Its Smartest

Paramount has officially renewed Landman for Season 3, and Sam Elliott has confirmed that it will begin filming its next season early in 2026. Landman Season 3 has not been given a slot on Paramount+’s official release calendar, but it’s a safe bet that it will arrive around the same time in 2026 that the first two seasons did in 2024 and 2025. Things are set to come to a head in the final few episodes of Landman over the next three weeks. Now that Gallino (Andy Garcia) has his claws in Cami (Demi Moore), Tommy’s life has just got even more complicated.
