Ainsley Norris’s story in Landman episode 8 was much better than any of her character’s earlier controversial scenes, despite what Michelle Randolph has said about them. Ainsley has been a source of controversy since she first appeared in the premiere of Landman. Many viewers took issue with how sexualized she was in those early episodes, and the fact that she would openly discuss her sex life with her father, Tommy (Billy Bob Thornton). On top of that, many of the male characters in Landman were obsessed with Ainsley, which wasn’t helped by the fact that all she wanted to do was sunbathe and work out in skimpy clothing.
