Taylor Sheridan’sLandmanset in West Texas has made fans piece together every bit of information in his layered plot. The creator is known for other shows likeMayor of KingstownandYellowstonewhich had intricate storytelling.
We’ve seen him craft dramas with moral dilemmas and family strife, but still, his recent show seems somewhat predictable. Episode 7 in particular has made fans speculate the plotline, and they might be right! But what does that mean for the show, and Sheridan as a creator?
Cooper’s struggle inLandmanand family tensions
In episode 7 ofLandman,titledAll Toads Lead to a Hole,we see the Norris family trying to cope with the aftermath of recent tragedies, especially after the violent attack on Cooper. After he’s discharged from the hospital, Cooper believes that staying at Ariana’s place would be better for recovery.
But tensions between him and his father, Tommy Norris already spark as he fears for Cooper’s safety. He also warns Ariana about the dangers of his son’s volatile work. At the same time, Monty Miller, who is Tommy’s employer begins to push for high-risk investments and bets millions of dollars on drilling in cartel-controlled areas.

While all these intense things unfold, lawyer Rebecca Falcone visits Ariana to discuss a settlement offer from M-Tex Oil. Now, as Cooper is the only remaining survivor of the explosion that happened to kill three workers, his testimony becomes crucial. He alone can determine M-Tex’s liability and the future of all the families involved in the oil business.
Fan theories aboutLandman:is Taylor Sheridan losing his touch?
It seems like a few fans have begun to predict the outcome of Cooper’s arc and how the settlement with M-Tex Oil will go. Some believe that Cooper will side with Ariana and not reveal the information that would suggest the company’s involvement in the explosion. But his moral compass would guide him to protect the families who lost their loved ones, instead of M-Tex.
According to online discussions, Cooper will face an internal conflict, he will be torn between his loyalty to the family and the corrupt but profitable practices of the old industry. But he will ultimately choose his loved ones over the company, as it aligns with the show’s recurring themes. If you’re familiar withTaylor Sheridan’s past work, loyalty, family, and moral gray are the most recurring themes.
So even if the theories sound intriguing to you, they are not as novel for those who have followed Sheridan. The struggle of a character who doesn’t know if they’re interested in corporate interests or personal ethics is something that we’ve seen inYellowstoneas well. This begs the question: is Sheridan’s storytelling too predictable?
