Sylvester Stallone has come to CBS, as the Hollywood icon's TV series Tulsa King is airing on the network on Sundays at 8 pm ET/PT. After the series premiere aired on the network July 14, all episodes of Tulsa King season 1 are being shown on CBS as part of the network's summer TV lineup.
Created by Yellowstone's Taylor Sheridan, Tulsa King stars Stallone as Dwight "The General" Manfredi, a lifelong member of the mob who receives an unwelcome gift after being released from prison for protecting the family — a ticket to Tulsa, Okla., to set up operations there. However, Dwight soon realizes he has an opportunity in Tulsa to create something of his own. In addition to Stallone, the series features Andrea Savage, Martin Starr, Max Casella, Domenick Lombardozzi, Vincent Piazza, Jay Will and A.C. Peterson, with Garrett Hedlund and Dana Delany.
Tulsa King is a Paramount Plus original series, first released on the streamer back in 2022. While the first two episodes were also shown on the cable channel Paramount Network, CBS will make the show available to a wider audience and all nine episodes of the first season are going to be shown on CBS; just ahead of Tulsa King season 2's premiere in September.
According to Paramount, Tulsa King is the second-most watched original series from Paramount Plus, only behind another Taylor Sheridan production, the Yellowstone prequel 1923. FYI, though Sheridan created Tulsa King, there is no connection to Yellowstone.
