Taboo, the 2017 eight-episode period thriller co-created by Steven Knight, Tom Hardy, and Chips Hardy, has landed on Tubi in the US and is streaming free there right now, according to Tubi’s current listing. Hardy also stars.
If you missed Taboo during its run on FX or BBC One, or if you’re a Peaky Blinders fan looking for another Steven Knight series, this is a good chance to catch it. The show follows James Keziah Delaney, a man long believed dead, who returns to London in 1814 from Africa to claim his father’s inheritance. That homecoming turns into something far darker: a vicious fight involving the East India Company, the British government, family secrets, and a supporting cast that includes Jonathan Pryce, Jessie Buckley, Oona Chaplin, Stephen Graham, and Tom Hollander.
Taboo still stands out for its muddy, violent, gothic atmosphere, Hardy’s ferocious performance, and the way its story about power, empire, and corporate corruption still feels uncomfortably current. A second season has been rumored and discussed for years, and both Steven Knight and Tom Hardy have said in past interviews that more is planned, but there’s still no official release window.
For now, you can stream the full first season on Tubi in the US, according to Tubi’s listing.
