I was unaware that Veronica Mars, Sons of Anarchy, Mayor of Kingstown, Tulsa King, Lioness, and Landman were considered "Westerns" (in the USofA sense).
I myself would have reserved that label for his multitude of Yellowstone and Glam Ranching spinoff productions.
My own AV collection of media I enjoy watching or have been involved in the production of does include a collection labled Western .. but these are not the Westerns you are thinking of.

In the first episode of Tulsa King (which is on a streaming service, so I haven't watched any more of it), Sylvester Stallone is a mobster who gets out of prison after a long term, and is surprised to see a marijuana dealership. He realizes that they must keep a lot of cash, because banks won't deal with them.
So he sees his opportunity and becomes their "partner."
If it's a legal business, banks should not discriminate against the dealers. They're not selling fentanyl, after all.
Yes. I won't subscribe to anything (well, hardly anything), certainly not Adobe's bloatware.
TV series: I kinda liked the free sample of Tulsa King, but I'm for sure not subscribing to Paramount+ to see the rest. Not with a 7-day free sample, not with anything.
