Taylor Sheridan is on fire right now. Even with Yellowstone fully wrapped up, his run doesn't even seem close to finishing. Now, he's got another hit show on his hand with Landman. Half of what makes Sheridan's shows tick is his ability to maximize the talent and investment of his stars. Almost everyone who works with Taylor rides for him until the very end. This is the case for Jon Hamm, who applauds the show's creator and his casting instincts.

Recently, Hamm spoke on The Rich Eisen Show for an interview. There, he applauds Sheridan for having so many irons burning at the same time and all of them are succeeding. "I've literally lost count of how many shows he has on the air. The list goes on and on and they're all good," Jon says. "Lioness is great. Tulsa King is great. All of the Yellowstone (shows). How many Yellowstones can you have? It's fantastic. He's a great guy to work for and with. I'm stoked to be in this version of the next iteration of his universe."
Jon Hamm Praises Taylor Sheridan's Breezy Casting Process
Additionally, Jon explains how breezy and laid-back casting is with Taylor Sheridan versus other TV experiences. "He has this massive ranch down in West Texas in Weatherford - just west of Fort Worth. You go down there and he goes, 'This is what I'm thinking, this is what I want to do. What do you think?' And you go, 'Great, yeah, I want to do that.' That's it. It's the greatest audition process ever," Hamm says.
You don't have to sit in a room and wait somewhere in Studio City and look at nine guys that look like you. He just goes, 'I want you, come down here, let's talk about it and then we'll do the show,'" Jon continues.
