If you have ever dated a Cuban chick (and Im sure this applies to lots of other latins), that plates against the wall scene is just another day that ends in a "y". Granted Larter isn't hispanic in the series, but it ain't exactly out of the realm of normal for some of us.
That scene with the admissions lady and her absolute disgust, and the daughter absolutely not even connecting what she is saying and instead celebrating "getting accepted" is perhaps the best scene in this whole fucking series and this show has had tons of great scenes.
"I don't understand any of the words you are saying."
"graduating from aletto in May?"
It's pretty decent at portraying the oil field. The very first episode though has a super eye rolling scene involving BBTs son and his first experience out in the field. Also everyone in the show calls it "the Patch", maybe its a Midland thing but I grew up around the oil field (well control specifically) and I never heard anyone call it The Patch. It's a pretty fun watch though if you dont take it too seriously, perfect role for BBT.
Sheridan might technically be out at Paramount but Landman S02 was complete before that happened and he's still wrapping up his ongoing shows through 2028.
My thought of the term "landman" was always the sales/pitch guys who go out trying to buy your mineral rights or unify a parcel so that it can be drilled/exploited. I never thought landman meant just oil stuff in general.
I haven't watched season 2 yet maybe the son is doing that in season 2, but in season 1 he was very much just a roughneck.
