Taylor Sheridan’sTulsa Kingwas off to a strong start, with Sylvester Stallone owning the screen as Dwight, a mobster trying to rebuild his empire. But by the time Season 2, Episode 5 rolled around, fans started noticing a recurring issue they couldn’t ignore. Sheridan, known for his gritty realism, seemed to be leaning a little too hard into Dwight’s fish out of water act.

The latest episode confirmed that the criticism wasn’t just noise—something feels off. Stallone’s character, while still compelling, is beginning to tread familiar ground, and fans are questioning if the show’s spark is fading. Sheridan’s signature style may have finally hit a snag, and viewers aren’t shy about voicing it.
Tulsa KingSeason 2 Episode 5: Dwight’s Rants Are Wearing Thin
Taylor Sheridanmight want to hit the brakes on the relentless monologues ofSylvester Stallone’s character, Dwight, because Episode 5 ofTulsa Kingproves fans were right.
The rants about Old America are starting to feel like a broken record, and this episode took it to another level. Seriously, who needs ten minutes of Dwight complaining about the school system? It’s like listening to that grumpy uncle who can’t let go of the past, even when you tell him he can order booze online now.

The episode kicks off with Tina trying to impress the kids at the local school while Dwight’s presence makes everyone uneasy. When the teacher declares every child is a winner, Dwight’s face says it all—he’s alienated and unimpressed. Meanwhile, Bodhi and Jimmy are off bonding over cannabis gummies, and Donnie reveals his cowboy persona is just a gimmick. Classic!

But the drama doesn’t stop there. Vince and Chickie are stirring up trouble, with Chickie itching for a fight while Vince just wants to talk it out with Dwight. Tensions rise when Thresher shows up, leading to a showdown at the wind farm. The action picks up, but overall, Episode 5 feels like it’s dragging. The buildup’s slow, and while the characters are solid, the plot needs to kick into high gear.
Here’s hoping for a thrilling clash between Dwight and Thresher soon—because right now, the series is just hanging in the balance.
