Tulsa King is a fish-out-of-water crime drama, which charts the efforts of a former gangster trying to re-establish himself as a force to be reckoned with in an entirely new city.

The official synopsis explains that Tulsa King “follows New York mafia capo Dwight “The General” Manfredi just after he is released from prison to set up shop in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Realizing that his mob family may not have his best interests in mind, Dwight slowly builds a “crew” from a group of unlikely characters, helping establish a new criminal empire in a place that to him might as well be another planet.”
