Explosive 'Landman' Episode 7 Shocks Viewers with Full-Frontal Billy Bob Thornton

The latest episode of Landman, Season 2, Episode 7, titled “Forever Is an Instant,” premiered on Sunday, December 28, on Paramount+. Viewers described it as the "wackiest and horniest yet," opening with a controversial and memorable scene featuring Tommy (Billy Bob Thornton) in an unblurred, explicit state, leaving both the room service waitress and the audience stunned.

Beyond the initial shock, the episode explores intricate character dynamics. Rebecca (Kayla Wallace) is notably smitten with Charlie (Guy Burnet), displaying unusually affectionate behavior. Their breakfast scene, where Charlie discusses the geology of the ocean floor, was praised for Taylor Sheridan's writing. The metaphor comparing Rebecca “wildcatting” for oil to opening her heart to Charlie emphasizes the theme of taking risks.

The narrative also delivers eccentric and surprising moments. Tommy’s implied sexual encounter with an omelet to provoke Angela (Ali Larter), Dale’s (James Jordan) unexpectedly smooth demeanor, and Boss’s (Mustafa Speaks) hints at retirement keep viewers on edge. T.L. (Sam Elliott) contributes to the bizarre tone by peeing on a snake and offering Tommy practical life advice amidst the chaos, underscoring the episode’s unique humor.

Other interactions heighten the episode’s unpredictability. Angela and Ainsley (Michelle Randolph) seemingly gaslight Cooper (Jacob Lofland) about his body odor, while Nate (Colm Feore) surprisingly deduces Rebecca and Charlie’s romantic involvement. Conversations about cock rings and a tense car trip, where T.L.’s life seemed at risk, add to the episode’s bizarre and comedic elements.

Tommy’s comment that "the whole place is a workplace violation" regarding “man camps,” alongside Angela’s blunt, “You can eat it or fuck it, I don’t really care,” highlight the show’s irreverent tone. Despite the chaos, the episode closes on a heartwarming note: Tommy heeds T.L.’s advice and cherishes his family, while Cooper’s “pretty cute” proposal, lit by a comically excessive number of candles, adds charm amid the madness.
