‘Pissed-Off’ Hosts Hate Trump and Men

Tommy and T.L. Discuss “The View” in Latest Episode of “Landman”

During the newest episode of the Paramount+ drama “Landman,” Tommy (Billy Bob Thornton) and his father, T.L. (Sam Elliott), engage in a humorous conversation about the popular daytime talk show, “The View.”

Tommy suggests to T.L. that they pass the time by watching “The View,” describing it as a show where “pissed-off millionaires bitch about how much they hate millionaires and Trump and men and pretty much everyone else they have a bee up their ass about.” He adds, “It’s pretty funny.”

T.L., unfamiliar with the show, expresses his skepticism, saying, “Don’t sound funny.”

Tommy explains further, likening the humor of “The View” to that of a “fart in church,” emphasizing that it may not be joke funny but situational funny depending on one’s proximity to the situation.

This exchange showcases the witty banter between Tommy and T.L., with Tommy often serving as a mouthpiece for creator Sheridan’s commentary on various topics. While pop culture references are rare in the show, this nod to “The View” adds a humorous touch to the episode.

In real life, Thornton made an appearance on “The View” in 2024 to promote the premiere of “Landman,” bringing his charm and charisma to the daytime talk show. Watch the segment below.
