What’s the plot of season 2 of Tulsa King?

Tulsa King season 1 ended with Dwight outflanking the leader of a rival gang and cementing his control over criminal operations in Tulsa. At the last minute, though, he’s arrested by ATF agents just as he’s opening his new casino, leaving his future very much in doubt.

The synopsis for the show’s second season doesn’t mention law enforcement, but it does suggest that Dwight is not going to be alone in his quest to solidify control over the territory. In season 2, he’ll face a new threat from the Kansas City mob as well as a powerful local businessman. When you’re building a criminal empire, it’s rarely smooth sailing.

Season 2 will also introduce newcomers Neal McDonagh and Rich Ting, who are both apparently in all 10 episodes of the new season.

A trailer for the second season was released on June 26, and it opens with Dwight saying, “I was sent to Tulsa and I built something. Now, we have some trouble coming our way.” The trailer features plenty of action and bloodshed, and also hints at the threats still on the horizon for Dwight and his crew.

Like much of the content on Paramount+, Taylor Sheridan serves as the executive producer for Tulsa King. The show is written by Sopranos veteran Terence Winter, though. After some reported tension between Winter and Sheridan, Winter briefly stepped away from the show before ultimately returning. The show has also faced reports that extras were mistreated on set, which director Craig Zisk has vehemently denied.

Shōgun season 2: Everything we know so far
What was once a miniseries is now a full-fledged drama
Cosmo Jarvis as John Blackthrone in Shogun

Shōgun obliterated ratings records and Emmy season throughout 2024 to become arguably the most iconic show of the year. Based on James Clavell's 1975 novel about the power struggle within Japan's government in the late 1500s and early 1600s that led to the Edo shogunate, the series is a rare breed in today's TV landscape.

With incredible attention to detail, exquisite casting, accurate makeup and costume design, and music that fits the story to a tee, Shōgun is the entire package. The people making this Hulu series care about crafting art rather than just junk food television or a story you binge with your brain shut off. It requires you to think about what the characters are saying and invest in their motivations to get the most out of the plot and themes.

Squid Game season 2 broke more records on Netflix when it came out in December 2024. The South Korean series had been on hiatus for over two years and, in the process, created quite the fervor for fans waiting patiently for the follow-up season, I should know, I was one of them.  The new episodes didn't disappoint. Seong Gi-hun's return to the violence and shock of the games led to devastation for him in the season finale. Viewers were stunned when Front Man murdered Gi-hun's best friend, Jung-bae, after believing everyone was on the same team with the same goals of ending the games and fighting back against the system.

Netflix's synopsis for the third season says"Gi-hun persists with his goal to put an end to the game, while the Front Man continues onto his next move and the surviving players' choices will lead to graver consequences with each round. Can we hope for humanity in the cruelest of realities? Fans all over the world are counting the days until the final answer is revealed."
