Adam Bentz is a senior news writer at ScreenRant, where he has authored nearly 5,000 articles, including features and lists. He studied creative writing and English with a concentration in screenwriting at Southern New Hampshire University and interned as a writer/journalist for The Borgen Project, an influential organization that fights global poverty.
However, one of his proudest achievements is editing a Leonardo DiCaprio freakout compilation that has over 150K views on YouTube. Adam also fancies himself an amateur film reviewer on his website.
The Lowdown has become a worldwide streaming sensation. The FX series, which premiered this past September, stars Ethan Hawke as a citizen journalist in Tulsa whose unwavering obsession with uncovering the truth constantly lands him in hot water.
For this week, The Lowdown is on the Disney+ Top 10 in 18 countries in Europe, specifically across Southeastern Europe (the Balkans), Central Europe, Northern Europe (the Nordic countries), and the Baltic region.
The Lowdown is streaming on Hulu in the United States.
Created by Sterlin Harjo and loosely inspired by the real-life historian Lee Roy Chapman, The Lowdown stars Ethan Hawke as Lee Raybon, a resolute bookstore owner in Tulsa who moonlights as an investigative journalist probing into local corruption and when his investigations discover dark ties, he faces the challenge of safeguarding both his family and the truth.
The Lowdown has received rave reviews, resulting in a stellar 98% score on Rotten Tomatoes, with critics praising the show for achieving remarkable heights as a piece of pulpy entertainment, infused with a local love for Tulsa and anchored by Ethan Hawke’s world-weary charm.
The Lowdown also has a 77% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.
