TV show description:
This soap opera follows a young couple as they move to Williston, North Dakota in order to seek their fortune. It’s said that a millionaire is made every day in this town that’s been booming since the discovery of a huge oil reserve.
Tycoon Hap Briggs (Don Johnson) is a typical oil drilling Barron and a force to be reckoned with. In contrast to Briggs’ self-made image is his socialite wife, Carla (Amber Valletta), who is forever jetting off to the city.
Confronted with his legacy, he is riled by his heavy drinking college dropout son, Wick (Scott Michael Foster), who’s sense of entitlement makes him an undeserving heir.
Meanwhile, Billy (Chace Crawford) and Cody LeFever (Rebecca Rittenhouse) are pursuing the American dream. They’re determined to succeed in a place that’s reminiscent of a frontier town during the gold rush — there are rowdy bars and no shortage of men easily making and parting with money.
Hap takes Billy under his wing with Billy’s drive and commitment reminding Hap of himself as a young man. Seeing someone take his place causes Wick to lose control and he embarks on a vicious campaign of hatred against those who he believes have wronged him.
Episode #10 — Departures
Christmas is a time for coming together, but for the Lefevers, it’s a time of difficult choices. Billy faces an ultimatum to either save his marriage by leaving Rock Springs forever or to stay in the oil game alone while Cody experiences temptation in the form of another man. With the Black Elks land deal slipping away, Annie and Hap consider doing the unthinkable – joining forces to help secure this once-in-a-lifetime oil acquisition. Fearing the fate of his son, AJ enlists Tip to help bring the child to safety. And finally, another father-and-son relationship is pushed to its limits when Hap and Wick finally lay it all out on the table at the Briggs Christmas Eve gathering.
First aired: December 10, 2015.
What do you think? Do you like the Blood & Oil TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Absolutely terrific show!!!! Great cast and great story!!! Why is such a good show being cancelled? Why, why, why, why, why?
Please don’t cancel this show!! It’s the best new show there is!!
It is horrible that stupid reality shows get continued and here a actual story line that is wonderful is cancelled. I get so tired of not having anything decent to watch, if this show is cancelled then i am done with ABC.
Please renew!!!! Every good show that comes on they cancel!!!! This show is great!!! I don’t understand why they take off the good ones and keep the stupid ones!!!! Like muppets and fresh off the boat, I keep those and not blood and oil!! Doesn’t make since to me!!!! RENEW!!!!!! This is my new Sunday night show since revenge ended!!!!!
Renew, renew, renew Blood & Oil Please!!!
Renew the show! It deserves a new night or time. Also more advertising. They advertised the heck out of it until it started. Love this show! I want more!
I really like this show. Please do not dancel
Please keep this show!!!!!!!!
This was the best new series in 2015 as far as I was concerned. Fast paced multiple storylines, talented actors, eye candy for both genders. Just an all around good show. We need a break from the 10-15/ years of reality TV. Would love to see Season Two! There is a very loyal following of us out there!!
I love this show and hope it returns.
I think it should be renewed for another season! Due to some executive’s poor judgement on putting this show on during the same time as The Walking Dead, it didn’t allow the show’s true ratings to be seen. It is only fair to keep it on for one more season and movie it to an earlier time slot. THen you will be able to see the show’s true ratings. PLease allow this show one more season and put it on earlier or later so that it isn’t in competition with The Walking Dead.
Renewed for 2 season. Love the show.
My Daughter and I love this show. I think Sinday nights are a tough spot. This show deserves a chance. Really great actors. Please give it another chance. So tired of cop shows and realit TV.
Please keep this show the best yet
Please bring this back! I can’t believe this show was canceled when other shows that are so bad are still on!!! Every time I get interested in a show it gets canceled!!! BRING IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
