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?
great show, big mistake not another Dallas
Family in several different states loved this show! Big mistake to drop! TV critics got their way, putting the show down as another Dallas. Totally wrong! Like really, look at all the medical dramas on TV!
Why don’t you realize that you made a big mistake, ABC, and bring back Blood & Oil?????????
Very disappointed that you cancelled this series. Liked show
Blood and Oil Cancelled? it was a great show. I had been waiting for something new with Don Johnson since Nash Bridges. Loved the rest of the cast also. Bring it back.
What are the big TV guys thinking? This was a great show. Maybe another network will pick it up and I, for one, will be great full Most shows on TV are boring but not this one. PLEASE BRING IT BACK. Never missed an episode. Grow up you people that cancelled this show!!
Is Blood and Oil really not coming back??? I see “Nashville” was picked up by another network. Is that a possibility for B & O??? I STILL CAN’T BELIEVE IT WILL NOT BE BACK FOR ANOTHER SEASON OR 50!
I really want more of Blood and Oil. I was totally hooked after the first episode!
Please another network pick up Blood&Oil . Would be great on USA or TNT. Both networks are known for great new shows .
I was waiting for the next episodes of Fire and Oil! What a fabulous show! Don Johnson is the greatest along with all the other characters! Most shows are either Reality, Doctors, and Detectives! Finally we had a show that was different from the same old hum- drum! Please bring it back! At least try another night! Thank you, Jackie
