The second episode of Taylor Sheridan’s “Landman” contained several references to Fort Worth, including scenes filmed at Texas Christian University.

“Landman” stars Billy Bob Thornton and is described as a “modern-day tale of fortune-seeking in the world of oil rigs.” The Paramount+ series premiered its first two episodes on Nov. 17 and will air new episodes weekly on Sundays.

Since “Landman” was filmed in the Lone Star State and is set in West Texas and Fort Worth, viewers can expect in-house references in the series. Episode one included mentions of Fort Worth’s Meacham International Airport and the Petroleum Club.
