Fighting a Battle on Two Fronts | Tulsa King Episode 6 & 7 Review | Michael Franzese

[@t9j6c6j51]

It would be fantastic to see Sly as a guest on Michael’s show after the season ends.

[@theportugueselegend]

Michael said Sly has reservations about being seen with mob guys, even former ones. I do hope he puts that aside too! Tulsa King is awesome and really shows us another part of Sly's acting range

[@craighardy1753]

Let’s hope this happens real soon to end the pain

[@quentinrunyon3461]

Make this happen🤌🏻🤌🏻

[@dee24874]

Yes!!!

[@djgoldie134]

Sly is scared. Michael said it earlier

[@Amariek731]

I love how I never see bad comments. Just goes to show you what a gentleman and a stand up guy Michael is especially putting his whole life on the table including things he’s not proud of. He deserves all the praise admiration and blessings for spreading nothing but love, kindness and honesty. 🙏🏼 Happy New year to you and your family ❤

[@ldcbossrob3938]

He just speaks the truth now as can a lot of us. Those days are over and I saw much too much over the course of my associations. We learn through life and lessons to be true to ourselves and thank the good lord we're here every day!

yeah Michael is great! can’t say I agree with most of his political beliefs but he’s a great guy who’s absolutely a pleasure to watch!

I enjoy how Sheridan has a diverse cast of characters, but few are simply there to check a box. Each one brings surprises and a back story that enhances the bigger story. Having a 20 year old woman toss some shade towards Manfredi on leadership in other places, e.g., Disney, would be straight up stupid. Here it makes sense and gives Manfredi a chance to show that he knows the burden. Her hurt, as with almost every person in the cast, comes from family loss. Somehow Sheridan found a way to make every character, even the guard at the weed shop, a person that does things a certain way that holds true. I also like how the plot revolves around Manfredi, but he is not the only driver for action (unlike Jack Lord in original 5-0). People do things and he reacts, still staying in a cohesive plot. Unfortunately that is so rare in what passes for episodic work these days.

[@Spooky_515]

I can’t believe it took me until episode 8 to realize Max Casella plays Armand. I knew I recognized him but couldn’t place it because of that mustache. How could I miss the man who played Benny Fazio from the Sopranos for years!?! lol A couple episodes were kind of slow but I can’t it’s really heated up and I can’t wait until Sunday for the finale. Keep up the great reviews Michael, love hearing how the show compares to the real thing and also how you analyze it separate from true life. Keep em’ coming

[@scottking869]

While i never agree with everything you say. I do like the fact you bring over your points clearly.

I admire Michael for being able to filter everything he's learned throughout his life and result into being the man he is.. Rispetto signor Franzese! ✌️

[@xneapolisx]

Its always a pleasure to receive a notification about Michael's "Tulsa King" recaps. He's the reason why I started watching thr show, and he does a great job explaining the in and out of real mob life vs Hollywood's fictionalized account. Great show and great channel. Happy 2023!!!

[@DEMON_DAVE_76]

I absolutely love this show,I believe Stallone is showing us his acting chop's,as a streaming show. All the guys are really doing good on giving us the Mob feel

Heck yeah, Sylvester Stallone is a personal hero of mine. I love his actual story. My favorite actor of all time!

[@underworldfilms86]

Stallone is friends with Liz Kaye (writer and ballet historian) to the best of my knowledge. So he's not just a tough guy actor.

[@simaximillian5082]

the story is thick n heavy now. i love it so much I watch it 4-5 times a week. I cant get enough of Tulsa King. fun fun.

[@cgoins1993]

When I saw Domenick walking down the steps last week without that toupee on I thought to myself “ok now they’ve really got something” he carries a presence on screen that is second to none compared to most actors nowadays. I’ve always liked Stallone, but seeing that Domenick was cast in this series is what really had me interested in this show, and now I feel like we actually have him. The same goes for Vincent Piazza and I really hope we get to see him channel some of that Lucky Luciano aura he carried in Boardwalk Empire too. Outside of Asante in Gotti and DiNero and Pesci in Goodfellas and Casino that is my favorite portrayal of a real life mobster on screen. Him and the actor that plays Meyer Lansky were absolutely phenomenal. So was Stephen Graham as Capone. Something about Piazza was on another level though in that series though

[@osmanyousif7849]

Really gives off Kingpin vibes with his new look.

[@robinhaupt9119]

We know we're getting the real deal with you Michael, thank you. I so appreciate when you provide insight regarding what would never have really happened.

[@RRTNZ]

Happy New Year Mr Franzese. This show keeps getting better. It's not that realistic, but it isn't pretending to be a documentary, as you say "dramatic liberty." And watching Stallone's performance is a real joy, the man dominates every scene with his huge presence. I predict Dwight will break ties with the "family" back East and confim his Tulsa crew as his very own family - La Cosa Tulsa ! Anyway, saw ep 8 yesterday and very excited about the finale next week - and of course your review ! Hope the New Year has started well for you and your family, God Bless.

thanks michael !!! keep'em comming,

[@helmmastery]

Michael, I have been watching your videos for a while and watching the absolute change Christ has done in you brings me to tears. I had a fascination for Mafia related subjects, not because of the crime or business aspect of how they are ran, but for loyalty. I am just a firm believer in loyalty. I have since brought that same belief to Christ. I am 20 years in the ministry and still get teary eyed when I see/hear/read about someone who turned their life over. That said...I am loving this series ( and the show itself) and loving your personal reflection on it. I love what your doing and bringing things to light for people. Some have made comments about things they know nothing about and it shows, your response to them is very respectable and I appreciate how you handle it. I hope you dont tire of sharing your personal experiences and struggles while reviewing mob related movies/show...bc it adds so much for them. I appreciate you and praying over you! Please upload the last two episodes soon..I am really looking forward to hearing more from you :) God Bless

[@severanfenrir4051]

Mike, if I may make a suggestion , because I really do like your reviews of this show. I think you may want to start organizing and narrowing down your reviews more. What I mean is you’re coherent in all of your observations and narrating but miss somethings and seem to be free wheeling it a bit. An example I’d use is when you discussed them killing the Biker who came over to shoot up the bar as a message, that afterward Dwight had the Bikers Cut/ Vest sent back to his Gang, and Mitch asks him if he should put a fish in it. The inside jokes a references kind of highlighting Dwight’s position as his own man but still with a Mob background known by all. Next, when Goodie came out there and saw Armand their exchange told us a lot about their history and what happened twenty years ago, most critically how Armand bailed when the infighting in the family was picking up but Goodie stayed and was Made (“Got his button”). This is a key insight into the supporting character backgrounds and mindsets.

[@eeroterry1074]

I appreciate you breaking down your perspective on the show. I am loving it and can't wait to see the next episode. I am glad to hear there will be season 2. I think this is some of Sly's best work.

[@meenalaregina7770]

Hi Michael! Happy new year! I think the most sensible character is Gracie. She rightfully asked Dwight to act as a proper leader. Stacey is unbelievably annoying; she is rude, tacky, self-serving and corrupt. I like that other characters are being developed and we better understand Dwight’s universe. I enjoyed your review! 🎉

[@mattd.4133]

Michael you are definitely the best!

[@MikeTXBC]

"I don't think anybody would be that dumb." Yes, they absolutely would. Most people aren't too bright and can't think ahead, so yeah... I totally believe that someone who's that arrogant and easily enraged would do something stupid on impulse without thinking about the potential repercussions.

[@jacobdenton6065]

You’re right Mr franzese I love this show this is one of the best Mob shows since the sopranos

[@markpayne6803]

I grew up in Philly and these certain gentleman were frequently in the news and of course you would hear things on the street I really enjoy your description and the details you bring to the table it helps me understand what was going on in a small way enough said I wish mom was still with us every time a documentary about organized crime would come on the TV she would be glued to the seat I swear she would wet herself before she would miss anything call me crazy but this from the first episode had me hooked

[@JimmyFlorida337]

Stallone shows he is more than just his Rocky, Rambo character. He is showing more gears with Dwight. For those of us who loved The Sopranos maybe Tulsa King is that kind of entertainment. The audience for this kind of genre is there. Hope for more mob shows.....

[@Hanover-ek4jy]

I have not been this interested in a series since the Sopranos!

[@robertw31968]

Thank you so much for recommending this Tulsa King. I've always loved Sylvester Stallone's Rocky, and Rambo movies. My wife and myself are really enjoying this show. If it wasn't for your recommending it I don't think I would've watched it. So thank you so much sir.

[@bradash.9309]

It's definitely getting better.

[@ExtendedDelta]

He is actually fighting a battle on 3 fronts. His mafia family, the biker gang, and the govt. The thing that I don't like is that they never say why he was sent to Tulsa. Not really. The writer is literally a cowboy, so I understand that. He is writing what he knows in a way. They likely sent him away, just to send him away because of the history, but there should have been more to it. There should have been some excuse they gave Dwight. I mean, they say "Go to Tulsa it's wide open" but that could be said about many places. It's like they threw a dart at a map and said, "go there." Also, the facial hair makes it a little unbelievable to me. Picky, I know, but I haven't seen many active mafia members with facial hair like that. A few mustaches in the 80s, but that's it. 😏

Pete was too consumed by the life and he also feared Dwight bc He put Dwight before his own family and his son. Thats why Chickie did what he did. The priest told him his dad had no conscience, i.e; no soul. Anytime petes son mentioned Dwight Petes blood pressure boiled...probably in fear I believe. Stallone's character is hella intense

I do enjoy the show too! The plastic surgery took time to get passed 😂 You stated something about the Father shouldn’t have taken him out but he should have went to the Boss to handle it. As someone that’s not involved in organize crime/Family, this trouble me! If that was my daughter I wouldn’t want no man to handle my business. And would never done it in front of anyone. That being said I was raised by a father who worked in the CIA. Who raised us to always take care of business and always be patient and never get emotional. Great content I am subscriber to your channel your doing a great job!!!

Even though the dialogue seems a tad corny at times this show definitely is something I enjoy watching. The story itself is interesting.

[@saulwalle]

Watching the last episode I was curious on your take about the conversation Chickie has with all his guys about killing Dwight. Based on what you and other guys on KZbin have said before i expected you to comment on that. It seemed unrealistic that he would bring that many people into the discussion about killing someone like Dwight beforehand. I was under the impression that something like that would be an order given to one or two guys and that involving that many people in the conversation wouldn't happen
