Taylor Sheridan’s crime thriller Landman is surging on streaming after its third season was delayed. The show, inspired by Christian Wallace’s Texas-set podcast Boomtown, is now his most indulgent series after two seasons, with the second season premiere drawing 9.2 million global views in its first 48 hours and breaking a Paramount+ record in the process.
But the road to Season 3 has been rocky. Three sets of delays hit production, and the most recent came in August, when James Jordan revealed filming had been pushed back to September. Despite that, Landman Season 3 is expected to arrive on Paramount+ sometime in mid-to-late 2027.
The Finale Question
Meanwhile, Sheridan’s other current hit, Lioness, is nearing its end. Zoe Saldaña stars as quick-reaction-force team leader Jill Wagner, whose character Jill says confidently, “We’re going to get Lioness Season 4.” But the series has yet to receive the fourth-season green light from higher-ups, leaving fans worried that only two episodes remain in the entire series.
The upcoming finale is sure to be explosive, although there’s the small matter of Sunday’s Episode 7, “Kiss the Girls,” to take care of first.
The Delays So Far
The three sets of delays affecting Landman Season 3 came across the past few months. Each push back changed the timeline for the show, with the most recent August announcement confirming the shoot would move to September.
- The August delay was revealed by James Jordan.
- Filming was pushed back to September.
- The show is now expected to air sometime in mid-to-late 2027.
What Happens Next
Lioness fans are left with two questions:
- Will the finale deliver on its promise of being the most explosive episode yet?
- Will Lioness actually get a Season 4?
The show has not yet received official confirmation from higher-ups.
A Record-Breaking Run
The 9.2 million global views for the second season premiere in its first 48 hours stand out. The show’s success is part of why Sheridan’s catalog has been so closely watched, even as delays pile up.
| Series | Status | View Count |
|---|---|---|
| Landman | Season 3 delayed, expected mid-to-late 2027 | 9.2 million global views in first 48 hours |
| Lioness | Season 3 finale approaching, Season 4 uncertain | Two episodes remaining |
The Numbers Tell the Story
The irony is that the surge itself is the headline. The show has drawn strong viewership despite the delays, and the premiere numbers speak for themselves.
