Taylor Sheridan makes her female characters very shallow, even though they seem strong, so this series is no exception. But for me, this show wins because Billy Bob steals every scene; even the ones with half-naked women!
This is his show!
The way the oil business is portrayed is probably the most accurate depiction of how the industry is run. BB has the best lines to describe the value of oil and what makes the world (oil) go round.
His female characters are very flawed
The scenery is beautiful, how the rigs work is actually quite informative. I just don’t understand why the daughter is such a fool and the wife is such a loser, but I guess that’s just Sheridan’s way.
But if you want great lines and the best Billy Bob Thornton, watch this show
He’s brilliant.
