Tulsa King (Paramount +)

[Wallcrawler]

Feels like the show doesn't really have any stakes. Waited all season for something to happen, then when something DOES happen, it's just an old Saturday morning serial fake out to get you to tune in next week, and you find out it's a nothing burger.

Spoiler!

I mean, Tyson's father actually dying in the car bomb would have cranked up the temperature big for this show. Instead, it's just like nah, he'll be fine. Equivalent to getting shaken up in a run of the mill car accident.

Why bother? If you're going to do a fakeout, just kidding he good, why use Tysons dad? Just throw everyone a swerve thinking TYSON died in front of Manfredi. Then have your dumb he'll be okay moment at the hospital to keep a major character.

Just me.

Agreed. Waiting for something big to happen. Seems too easy. Still enjoy it but it's not weekly tv and more catch up to me
