Note: The following story contains spoilers from “Landman” Episode 10.

In its first season, Taylor Sheridan’s “Landman” struck oil.

The show debuted to 14.6 million viewers across Paramount+ and Paramount Network, where it also aired. It was the biggest domestic premiere ever for Paramount+ when you factor in the first three days of viewing and the biggest premiere on the streaming platform in two years. The show just wrapped up its first season with a deluxe 80-minute finale that sees many of its plotlines coalesce and crescendo. We don’t have numbers yet, but it’s safe to say that it’s going to be big.
