In the latest episode of Landman there's a scene that just made me red with anger. The scene involves a couple who recently had broken up. The male in the relationship had hit on some oil fields and is looking to make serious money. The woman he is dating breaks up with him because she doesn't want her life to change. So she breaks up with him and kicks him out of her house, so the dude leaves.
In this episode he comes back to get some clothes for a funeral. The guy starts crying and tells the woman he misses her, She tells him he didn't miss her enough to fight for her. That he didn't give her any options except to leave everything behind. And then she says the most galling part she tells him she might have kicked him out, but he's the one that left. What the fuck. What's a guy supposed to do? He leaves when she ask, no means no right, and then he's the one that's at fault because he listened to her?
I know I'm going to get the don't watch modern media spiel from some of this board, but I was really bothered by the attitude of the woman here. I think this is how most women think, and it's obnoxious
The lawyer is portrayed as too arrogant for her own good and Camey as too naive for her own good. One of them already gets a slap in the face in E5. So far the only truly competent characters in Landman are Tommy, Dale and Nathan.
