"The show's pacing isn't perfect, but it's finding a decent groove by juggling a few solid character-centered stories and dialing up the crises at M-Tex. I'm certainly more entertained (and emotionally invested) than I was for those last couple ofYellowstone seasons. We're halfway through the season now, and M-Tex finds itself in quite a few sticky situations, starting with the driver in the pickup from last week's cold"
"The missing $400 million is still a major problem - and despite Rebecca's impressive bluster a few weeks back, the attorneys at the insurance company suing M-Tex are digging their heels in, insisting the new rig start operations in the next 45 days. They'll require weekly progress reports to ensure M-Tex is cooperating, and if it doesn't happen, a grand jury will determine the company's future."
Landman improves its pacing and focuses on character-driven stories while escalating crises at M-Tex. A pickup incident raises potential lawsuits despite the driver's suicide. An H2S leak at an abandoned pump jack killed multiple hunters, creating an environmental and legal hazard. The biggest crisis stems from Monty's missing $400 million, prompting aggressive action from insurance attorneys who demand the new rig start within 45 days and require weekly progress reports. The missing funds were shifted through insurance to avoid taxes and are invested in private equity, making immediate access costly and complicating M-Tex's options.
