Could have done without the pinky scene.

He was good in Goliath, too.

Ok, I'll bite...what does an actual "landman" do?

Basically what Tommy's son, Cooper, ends up doing when he goes out on his own. They run around securing mineral rights and put deals together.

I just re-read my original post and realized I didn't explain it. Sorry.

Season 2 just wrapped filming. I think it comes out end of year. Can't wait.

Nov 17th. Looks like a weekly roll out. I'll re-watch season 1.
