Taylor Sheridan is no stranger to stirring the pot, but hisLandmanepisode 7 might just be his most controversial yet. In this one, a female character shows up, and fans aren’t holding back their opinions. They’ve blasted her as a walking disaster, writing her like she’s straight out of a time before Wi-Fi or common sense.
Sheridan’s typically known for crafting layered, complex characters, but this one? Not so much. The backlash is real, and it’s raising eyebrows about how Sheridan approaches female roles.
Gen Z without Google?Landmansparks debate over Taylor Sheridan’s questionable character writing
Taylor Sheridancan’t seem to dodge accusations about poorly written female characters, andLandmanepisode 7 handed critics fresh ammo. One scene sparked disbelief online when 17-year-old Ainsley (Michelle Randolph) asked her mom what a retirement home is. Reddit wasted no time tearing it apart.
One fan nailed the sentiment, saying,
Why is she written like she was born without the internet? It’s like she knows nothing.
Set in West Texas,Landmanexplored the oil rig life and its gritty realities, but this odd dialogue didn’t sit right. Ainsley’s character, meant to represent Gen Z, left viewers scratching their heads. A teenager in the digital age clueless about something so basic? Sheridan’s attempt at wholesome family dynamics turned into a meme-worthy moment instead.
This wasn’t the first timeLandmanveered off course for the Norris family. In the same episode, Angela (Ali Larter) and Ainsley spiced up a nursing home with cocktails andCards Against Humanity. Wholesome? Sure. Relevant? Not exactly. Sheridan’s tendency to weave standalone moments into larger stories is divisive. While it added flavor to the Norris family dynamic, some viewers felt the plot meandered.

Fans roast Taylor Sheridan’sLandmanfor lazy writing
Landmanepisode 7 had fans splitting up, and not in a good way. Ainsley, the show’s 17-year-old Gen-Z character, asked her mom what a retirement home is. A retirement home. Fans pulled no punches.
Fans were quick to call it lazy writing, saying it made no sense for someone so internet-savvy to be so out of touch. Many wrote off the scene as pointless filler, lumping it in with the show’s over-the-top gym sequences.
The takeaway? Ainsley’s clueless moment didn’t land—and viewers aren’t letting the writers off the hook.
