Taylor Sheridan is set to leave Paramount in 2028 for NBCUniversal, but the move won't necessarily end his hit shows there, as the studio retains the intellectual property rights and could keep several series running without him. Only Mayor of Kingstown is confirmed to conclude alongside his departure, while Tulsa King, Lioness and Landman all appear positioned to continue, raising questions about whether new creative teams can preserve the quality fans associate with Sheridan's distinctive style.

Paramount+ executive Jane Wiseman has signalled optimism that Tulsa King could run beyond a fourth season and hinted that other Sheridan properties, including Landman and further Yellowstone-linked projects, have a long future at the streamer. Tulsa King already offers a model for this transition, since Sheridan mainly oversees the show while a separate writing and directing team handles daily production, despite having created its original pilot story. However, the studio faces a genuine risk in this approach: CBS's Marshals has already drawn viewer criticism for lacking Sheridan's signature creative touch after being made without his heavy involvement.
