Landman is another series by the Yellowstone creator, Taylor Sheridan, who was praised for bringing the cowboy drama to life. Yellowstone became one of the longest-running shows of all time, while the new show set in a similar world is now streaming on Paramount+ and has been renewed for its new season 3. It is inspired by the 11-part podcast Boomtown, which explored the real-life oil boom in West Texas.Landman's season 2 has been received exceptionally well, but on many public platforms, the renewal news has also seen some backlash, with fans calling the show "energy industry propaganda" by Taylor Sheridan.Read on to know more about the heated debate around the popular show.Here is how Landman Season 3 renewal is tagged as a continuation of "energy industry propaganda."Taylor Sheridan's 'Landman' Renewed for Season 3 byu/nylasor52 intelevisionLandman is set in West Texas and follows the brutal and deeply profitable world of oil drilling during a massive boom. It tells the story of landmen, who are oil company negotiators who look after drilling rights and work the rigs. Therefore, given the world, the drama, just like Yellowstone involves, industry politics, and personal stakes against the backdrop of the high-risk and high-reward world of American oil.It portrays the overnight rise of people who owned land or mineral rights, suddenly becoming rich, along with the cutthroat business of oil exploitation. It highlights the corruption and land disputes that come along and the human cost of the oil boom. The environmental damage and workers' deaths are shown to reflect the real-life stories of people working in the field. It portrays West Texas as a place where law and morality often fall apart under the pressure of fast money.The oil drilling business is often a very controversial and sensitive issue with social and environmental ethics. Therefore, some Landman viewers see it as a glamorization of the oil industry life. This is a propaganda that the show is spreading by encouraging many to be like the characters they are watching on screen. It felt like glorifying and justifying abusing the environment for more money and personal profit. Here are some comments that appeared on Reddit."Energy industry propaganda renewed for third season," one comment reads.Some viewers also reflect upon some TV shows that showed the oil industry as a victim of people's greed or a brutal force that nobody should engage with."One of my favorite parts is the oil industry is either a victim or something you shouldn’t fuck with depending on what the tv show needs that week""The enemy is both weak and strong" is a known propaganda method.Landman Season 3 renewal tagged as continuation of "energy industry propaganda" (Image Via Paramount+)Some characters in Landman also emphasize personal success, wealth, and a rugged lifestyle, which seems like a glorification of wrong values. Some very sympathetic characters are showcased to be part of the oil industry, but some viewers have called it out as propaganda, recognizing how their sympathy is of no use if they are already part of such a business that escalates environmental and social harm."Shocker that Paramount loves the money they get from the oil industry for making this shitty propaganda.""Every part of my working brain knows that this show is absolutely trash. But I'd be a liar if I didn't admit to loving watching BBT be an absolute asshole."Paramount+ is backing Landman and has also renewed it for season 3. This announcement was a result of the successful premiere of season 2, which was also received well, bagging a rank among the top three original shows. Within the first 48 hours of its premiere, Landman gained more than 9.2 million views for season 2. This is almost a 262% increase over the viewership of season 1 on its debut.Therefore, we can say that this is the reason Paramount is so keen on continuing the show despite being called an energy industry propaganda by many fans.
