When Does "The Lowdown" (2025) Take Place?
"The Lowdown" is a crime television series showrun by Sterlin Harjo that released September 23rd, 2025. So when is "The Lowdown" set?
It takes place in the year:
We know this because in episode 1 "Pilot", Lee Raybon (loosely based on the real-world journalist Lee Roy Chapman [1969-2015]) picks up a copy of a "TULSA BEAT" free newspaper from a newspaper dispenser cover-dated for "NOVEMBER 11-17-2024". So it is during or after November of 2024 AD.
2025 AD

HOWEVER, in episode 7 "Tulsa Turnaround" Marty is watching a YouTube.com video embedded in a local Oklahoma news website article dated for "August 1, 2025" so it must be during or after August of 2025 AD. The newspaper seen in episode 1 must be an old issue left at the bottom of the dispenser.
[ALTERNATELY, the season could take place over many months from November of 2024 AD to sometime shortly after August of 2025 AD but this seems extremely unlikely.]
