I'll admit, when I first heard about the Tulsa King my immediate thought was that it would be a weak cousin of the Sopranos, or some woke take on the world of the mafia.

I'll admit, when I first heard about the Tulsa King my immediate thought was that it would be a weak cousin of the Sopranos, or some woke take on the world of the mafia.

But was I wrong. This show slowly but gradually grows on you right from the first episode, and as it continues it only gets better.

This role fits Sylvester Stallone like a glove, and Sly is really showing that he should've been doing TV series earlier in his career, because he for sure is carrying this show all by himself. There are other characters for sure that also interesting, but none carries himself like Stallone does. And Stallone is bringing his A+ game on every episode, even going to the point of proving he can be very emotional and believable while doing it.

The shows knows when to be serious, funny, dark, and hopeful. Even when Sly addresses the current problem of wokeness, he does so logically explaining exactly how the current Gen Z has no idea what the previous generations had to go through. His character doesn't insult in any way those that are woke, he just asks the very reasonable question of when will enough be enough.

I for one am loving Tulsa King, and I strongly recommend it to anyone that just wants to watch a great show, without any politics, wokeness, allowing the viewer to just relax and have a good time.

Genial y divertida. Sly está absolutamente fantástico. Sin duda, el salto a la televisión le ha venido perfecto.

Very entertaining show. Reminds me a little of Banshee which was also awesome. Great to see Stallone do something a little different but also lots of other cool cast involved.

The series has both funny and dramatic elements. The development of the plot is very interesting to watch. The film's star, Sly, gives an authentic performance. This movie is a breath of fresh air in the midst of all that comes out in our time.

It's like GTA on TV. The show is fairly enjoyable if you don't take it too seriously.

"Tulsa King" (S01, 9 eps, 35-42 min, Paramount+) is the latest gem from popular creator/writer Taylor Sheridan featuring Sylvester Stallone - in his FIRST tv show - as a fresh-from-prison gangster exiled to Tulsa.

The show also features his real-life daughter, Scarlet, in a minor role, also her first tv appearance. The shortish nine episodes fly by pretty quickly as it's tough to try to watch this night to night, instead, you'll want to binge all at once. The pacing is good, the casting/acting/directing/writing and production values are all first class. Inside this first season his character, Dwight Manfredi, manages to get on the "we must kill him" sides of a rival crime gang in Tulsa and his former "family" in NYC. The season finale ends with a you-saw-it-coming betrayal which could return him to prison. A sophomore season has already been green-lit but will we have to wait a year or more to get another paltry 8+ eps? Expand

It has been a long time since I saw Sylvester Stallone on any screen and I think his acting is far better as a 70-something than work he did as a younger man. This first season of Tulsa King really shows how he can show us how talented heIt has been a long time since I saw Sylvester Stallone on any screen and I think his acting is far better as a 70-something than work he did as a younger man. This first season of Tulsa King really shows how he can show us how talented he is, he shines on-screen and I look forward to more of this TV series because of him. Well done Mr. Stallone. Expand
