Not only do we get to see Ethan Hawke on the small screen again as “The Lowdown” returns for season 2, but he’ll also be joined by Tommy Lee Jones and Betty Gilpin for the latest episodes.
Below is our guide to how to watch “The Lowdown” season 2 from anywhere — live or on demand — including how to tune in with a VPN.
‘The Lowdown’ S2 release date and time
“The Lowdown” season 2 premieres on FX with a double-episode drop on Wednesday, October 14, 2026 at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT.
• U.S. — FX via Youtube TV/ Stream on Hulu next day.
• Global — Disney+ from October 15
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk free
The second season of “The Lowdown” kicks off with Lee claiming the Citizen Journalist of the Year award, but his acceptance speech causes quite the stir and lands him in hot water once again. Still, that chaotic speech does lead him into the path of public defender Ginger (Gilpin), who needs help after her client vanishes.
Naturally, Lee will oblige, but the case will drag him even deeper into the dark world of criminal conspiracy and corruption. If that wasn’t enough, he’s also got a reunion with his estranged father (Tommy Lee Jones) to contend with. Eight episodes might not be enough to handle all those intertwining storylines, but we’re sure Lee and co. will find a way to wrap it all up in a neat bow.
If you’re ready to dive back into the web of conspiracies, check out below for how to watch “The Lowdown” season 2 with both live viewing and streaming options available.

In the U.S., “The Lowdown” season 2 airs on the FX TV channel. It premieres on Wednesday, October 14, at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT, with a two-episode drop. Further episodes release weekly.
You can stream FX live through services such as Fubo, Hulu + Live TV and YouTube TV, with Sling Blue carrying the channels in select markets. And, you could even get a free trial so you can watch at least some of the show before deciding whether to pay for the service.
But, what if you miss the live broadcast? The series lands on Hulu and will be available for on-demand streaming.
If you’re outside the U.S. when the show airs, you can use a VPN such as NordVPN to access your usual services while traveling.
Watch ‘The Lowdown’ season 2 from anywhere
Traveling when “The Lowdown” season 2 airs? A VPN, or virtual private network, can make your device appear to be back in your home country so you can log in to the streaming services you already pay for while you’re away.
We’ve tested all the major options, and NordVPN remains one of the best VPN services right now. It’s fast, easy to use, and works across phones, laptops, tablets, streaming sticks, and smart TVs. There’s also a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it with very little risk.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we’ve said, NordVPN is our favourite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you’re outside the U.S. but want to watch the show as usual, you’d select a U.S. server from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head over to Hulu and watch “The Lowdown” season 2 as normal.
