Pop culture podcast Metalcore Nerds compares Tulsa King to the long-running HBO mob series The Sopranos starring the late James Gandolfini.
If you’re missing The Sopranos, #TulsaKing may be your new obsession. Is it as good? No, but it’s a great fish out of water story and some of the best work of Stallone’s career. It’s funny, surprising and not scared to get bloody when things get messy. pic.twitter.com/yxjlrVniuq

As seen in the clip above, when Stallone’s character introduces himself to Delany’s character, Margaret Devereaux, the owner of Fennario horse ranch, he’s not on the up-and-up, and she knows it.
Note: Season 2 of Tulsa King — see trailer above — premieres on Sunday, September 15, streaming exclusively on Paramount Plus.
