Tulsa King with Sylvester Stallone is being offered up in installments on Paramount Plus also available on Prime. It is an interesting premise but whether you will like it or not depends on weather you like Stallone.
Tulsa King's premise is a fish-out-of-water comedy played straight, following Dwight Manfredi (Stallone), a former New York City mafia capo as he ends a 25-year prison sentence only to find that no one wants him around anymore. He’s banished to Tulsa, Oklahoma, and in a bit of positive spin is told to set up shop there. What’s funny is, Dwight absolutely commits to this. What follows in the first 3 episodes is Stallone doing what Stallone does in all his movies but he is a 75 year old version of that Stallone so don't expect to see him jumping out cars with two machine guns in each hand. I will probably watch the rest of the first season but I'm not sure I can take a second season of testosterone running out my screen; that's assuming there is a 2nd season.
