‘Landman’ Proves Once Again Why Season 2 Is Essential After Stunning Ratings
Back in May at Cannes, Moore casually revealed that a renewal was already in the works, saying, “I’ve already completed the first season and I’m excited for us to start the second, which will be at the beginning of next year.” Now, given the show’s immense popularity it’s clearly only a matter of time until Landman gets the green light. The only question is how long will it take them to do so?
What Happened in the ‘Landman’ Finale?
If Landman’s explosive finale is anything to go by, a second season is practically a necessity. The final episode saw Thornton’s Tommy Norris take control of MTex Oil after Monty Moore’s (Jon Hamm) sudden death due to a dodgy ticker. With Monty gone, Moore’s Cami looks poised for a bigger role in a potential second season, especially as she played a key part in convincing Tommy to follow through on Monty’s oil ambitions.
But Monty’s oil deal left plenty of unfinished business—business that put Tommy in serious danger. Cartel boss Jimenez abducted and tortured Tommy, setting up a dramatic last-minute rescue by Andy Garcia’s Gallino, whose introduction at the 11th hour of Season 1 is absolutely suggesting at a major power struggle in Season 2.
