Taylor Sheridan Show ‘Landman’ Mocks ‘The View’: ‘Bunch Of P***ed Off Millionaires’

The newest episode of Taylor Sheridan’s show “Landman” includes a dig mocking “The View,” which is getting a lot of attention on social media.

During Episode 5 of the second season, which is titled “The Pirate Dinner,” Tommy (Billy Bob Thornton) suggests that his father, T.L. (Sam Elliott), should waste time at home by watching a TV show. Tommy suggests “The View” as an option of what to put on.

T.L. responds that he’s not familiar with the program, prompting Tommy to give a brief synopsis.

“A bunch of p****ed-off millionaires bitching about how much they hate millionaires and Trump and men and you and me and everybody else they got a bee up their a** about. It’s pretty funny,” he says.

T.L. responds, “Don’t sound funny.”

“Well, it ain’t joke funny, it’s like ‘fart in church’ funny, you know what I mean?” Tommy answers.

T.L. replies, “That don’t sound funny, either,” to which Tommy quips, “Well, it depends on your proximity to the fart.”

Some commenters noted it was an interesting scene because “Landman” doesn’t usually include references to real-life pop culture. They also pointed out how Thornton was on “The View” in 2024 to promote the series.

“The world is healing,” one response said.

“Couldn’t have put it better,” another commenter agreed.

“Think he summed it up pretty well,” echoed a third.

The Paramount Plus show “Landman” follows Tommy, a crisis manager in West Texas, as he navigates the world of the oil and gas industry and the conflicts that arise from it. Sheridan is great at making hit shows, as evidenced in part by the enormously popular “Yellowstone” and subsequent spinoffs.

While plenty of fans attempted to prove “Yellowstone” promoted conservative values, Sheridan pushed back, saying that was never his intention.

“They refer to it as ‘the conservative show’ or ‘the Republican show’ or ‘the red-state Game of Thrones,’ ” Sheridan said of “Yellowstone” in 2022.

“And I just sit back laughing. I’m like, ‘Really?’ The show’s talking about the displacement of Native Americans and the way Native American women were treated and about corporate greed and the gentrification of the West, and land-grabbing. That’s a red-state show?”
