Blood & Oil

Billy and Cody Lefever dream of a new life beyond their working class roots and move to The Bakken in North Dakota, booming after the biggest oil discovery in American history. Theyre soon pitted against a ruthless tycoon who forces them to bet big and put everything on the line, including their marriage.

Starring Don Johnson as Hap, Chace Crawford as Billy, Rebecca Rittenhouse as Kelly, Delroy Lindo as Tip, Amber Valetta as Carla, Scott Michael Foster as Wick, India De Beaufort as Jules, Yani Gellman as AJ and Caitlin Carver as Lacey.

Written by Josh Pate and Rodes Fishburne. Executive producers are Tony Krantz, Josh Pate, Rodes Fishburne, Drew Comins, and Don Johnson; produced by ABC Signature.

The only appeal to this show for me would be Don Johnson.

Hey Toups, the show is titled, Oil (FKA Boom).

Nooooope.

Meh. I'd watch for Don Johnson. Chace Crawford should just stand there and look pretty.

Don simply isn't enough!

I always forget about Chace until I see him pop up in something.

Don definitely isn't enough. I see this as a total failure. It wants to be Dallas mixed with Dynasty and throw in some Nashville for good measure, but ehhh. Nothing stood out to me.

Ooooooooooooo definitely agree with you on the Dallas tone... looked how that worked out for Dallas 2.0.... (R.I.P). But it just isn't there and sometimes I want to shake execs for greenlighting these series because all I see is epic fail written all over it.

PREACH

I was interested because, obviously, soap opera/Dallas/oil

 

Then I learned massive failure Cynthia Cidre was showrunning it

 

But, WAIT -- she's been kicked out as showrunner before the show even started! 

 

The show may have a chance now... unless it gets canceled before the showrunner switch takes place.

 

Who on Earth would give that bitch another gig?

Out after just two episodes. BYE!

I was wondering why this looked so much like that lame Dallas reboot, beige in all aspects.

Good for them, I say.  Larry Hagman's passing might have been a huge blow to DALLAS 2.0, but I think it could have withstood even THAT loss had a more capable EP been in charge.  

I see a Stetson so of course I'm gonna check this out. However, as I look at that cast, all I can think of is, who can we get to replace at least 3 of these people? That picture does not wow me at all and neither does trhe promo. Lots of sex scenes does not guarantee a successful show. I don't see substance and Crawford on the same show. 

When you think 'rugged heterosexual cowboy,' you think 'Chace Crawford.'

This show has been looking like the lame ass Dallas remake since it was announced. 

I see they've done some recasting but they need to do more imo.

I like Miranda Rae Mayo so I might tune in.
