Just three episodes in.
Billy bob Thornton is welcome back to Texas since his Friday Nights in 2006.
The feeling is Yellowstone and this is welcome, series with some reality versus superheroes and fantasy.
Based in the Permian basin Oilfield , great casting so far! Interesting people and storylines...
We Oilfield guys are shaking our heads at the inaccuracies of the field life and explosions/blow outs.
The technical failures in the first three episodes are embarrassing and your technical consultant got everything wrong in the Blowout scene.
A stuck old valve, the 24 inch Pipe wrench (applied upside down being hammered near to the top? 100% wrong.
You need torque, No Cheater pipe tried first? No hammer unless a brass hammer (ie no sparks)?
No experienced Oilfield downstream crew would ever have done this. A shambolic Technical director.
Billy is then seen as a 'Landman' trying to shut down a blowout (Never seen a Landman on location). Experienced and again places the wrench upside down and hits his own finger ? Just ridiculous.
Hey-Ho , Hollywood. Staying for the story !
PS ex Oilfield and commenting for many on my ex Oilfield group reactions.
