‘Tulsa King’ Season 2 Continues To Build Record Viewership As Taylor Sheridan’s Dominance On Paramount+ Persists

EXCLUSIVE: Tulsa King is still pulling its weight over at Paramount+ as Season 2 has become one of the three biggest domestic originals in the streaming service’s history.

The second season, which wrapped up on November 17, has reached 13.6M global households to date, according to Paramount Global. It trails only behind Taylor Sheridan’s other hit 1923 and its own first season.

(It’s common for Paramount+ to tout global households rather that viewers, since the company can’t determine how many people are watching via a single stream, or if anyone is actually watching at all.)

This is a victory not only for Stallone and Sheridan, but for MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios, which have been on a winning streak as of late. They also produce 1923 as well as Landman, which recently had the biggest global series premiere for Paramount+ in two years.

The Sylvester Stallone-led series has been a force to be reckoned with since it returned to Paramount+ in September, setting an all-time viewership record on its premiere day.

It’s no wonder the series is already likely on track for another two seasons. Paramount Global also says Season 2 has driven 159M views and 6.1M engagements on social media, up 894% and 553% respectively from the first season.
