While the two concurrent shows Tulsa King and The Penguin have some parallels on paper, including the characters of Vic and Tyson, on execution, the former has certainly prevailed. Although Taylor Sheridan’s Tulsa King isn’t exactly notable for its critical prowess, as the show doesn’t shy away from leaning towards more absurd territories, there has been a notable letdown in terms of writing.
Jay Will’s Tyson clearly sums up the state of the Sylvester Stallone-led show, as despite a promising start, the second season hasn’t been able to make him stand out, and fans aren’t pretty thrilled about it.
Unlike Vic, Tyson in Taylor Sheridan’s Tulsa King Has Failed To Impressed Fans
While Cristin Milioti and Colin Farrell have been the main highlight of the extension to The Batman saga, and rightfully so, it’s Rhenzy Feliz’s Vic, who has been The Penguin‘s heart so far. Although the filmmakers have incorporated traits from Jason Todd for Oz’s chauffeur cum prodigy, it has worked spectacularly for the story and has enriched the viewers’ experience.
On the flip side, while Jay Will’s Tyson showcased promise, who too starts out as a chauffeur for Dwight, the recent episodes have garnered backlash following the incompetence of his character. From being unable to register the risk of gifting his dad a car, which was under the threat of assassination, to taking rash actions against Bill, despite pushback from Dwight, fans have been vocal about Tyson’s incompetence.

With two more episodes to go, hopefully, the second season of Taylor Sheridan‘s Tulsa King will find its groove and end on a high note, as it doesn’t seem the show is getting off air anytime soon.
Tulsa King’s Future Is Looking Bright Despite an Underwhelming Second Season
Even before the sequel premiered, Sylvester Stallone expressed his desire to explore Dwight’s story over the course of many seasons, which isn’t surprising given the actor’s history with franchises. While the second season hasn’t quite lived up to the standards set by its predecessor, this isn’t stopping the third season from getting sanctioned. Stallone shared:
I am elated and so proud of our cast because our show has gone up 75% over last year which is unheard of, and Season 2 got 100% on Rotten Tomatoes! Also it’s the Second most popular show in the World across all streaming services! Thank you so much and we are working on the third season at this moment.
Although there hasn’t been official confirmation on the state of season 3, it’s safe to say an announcement isn’t far away.
Tulsa King is available to stream on Paramount Plus.
