The future of The Lowdown has sparked much curiosity after its powerful first-season finale. The FX neo-noir series, available on Hulu, stars Ethan Hawke as Lee Raybon, a self-proclaimed "truthstorian" on a mission to expose corruption in Tulsa, Oklahoma — a pursuit that puts him against dangerous and influential forces.
Created by Sterlin Harjo, known for the acclaimed Reservation Dogs, the show has earned widespread praise and currently holds a 98% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 44 positive reviews and a single mixed one. Fans are now wondering whether Harjo plans to expand the world of the show further.
“I’ve thought about many seasons of this show. I’ve thought about other projects — there was always an idea of going deeper into Oklahoma and some of these relationships that Lee has made in the first season. And you look at your show and see how people are responding.”
Although FX has not yet confirmed a renewal, Harjo’s remarks suggest strong creative intentions to continue exploring both the central story and several of its standout supporting characters.
The Lowdown’s mix of social commentary, character depth, and gripping atmosphere continues to earn it recognition as one of FX’s standout new series.
Author’s Summary: Sterlin Harjo signals creative readiness for multiple future seasons of Ethan Hawke’s acclaimed neo-noir The Lowdown, though FX has yet to announce renewal plans.
