FX and Hulu set the return date for Season 2 of “The Lowdown” for Wednesday, October 14. The series airs at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT on FX and Hulu, with episodes released weekly. Disney+ carries the show internationally.
Season 2 brings Ethan Hawke back as Tulsa “truthstorian” Lee Raybon. Outlets also report that the new season adds Tommy Lee Jones and Betty Gilpin to the cast, with promotional material indicating they appear in the upcoming storyline. Deadline describes Season 2 as an eight-episode run, with the weekly release schedule applying across the season.
While the outlets broadly align on the premiere date, distribution details, and main returning star, their coverage differs in emphasis: Variety focuses on Hawke’s role and the overall release rollout, Hollywood Reporter spotlights the expanded cast and storyline framing, and Deadline highlights first photos of Jones and Gilpin alongside the schedule.
