I’ve loved Tulsa King so far
In fact, I love everything Taylor Sheridan does, so I knew this would be no different. This is a fun crime show that knows exactly what it wants to be, and you can tell the cast, led by Sylvester Stallone, is all having fun doing it.
He thinks he’s getting a hero’s welcome, but he’s sent to Tulsa to run things
It’s about a New York mob boss named Dwight “The General” Manfredi (Stallone) who is released from prison after 25 years. After not feeling the love from his gang like he thinks he should, he starts to build his own in Tulsa.
It’s obviously doing well because it’s already been renewed for a second season, which is great news!
Some of it may seem a little silly, but overall it’s a really good show that’s definitely worth watching. Check out our list of "Yellowstone" Season 5, Part 2, "Squid Game" Season 2 and many of the most anticipated new and returning series on TV and streaming.
