TNT’s Animal Kingdom brought a little SoCal to South by Southwest. The gritty crime drama centered on a matriarch-led clan of thieving, womanizing brothers in Southern California returns to TNT for its second season on May 30.

Vulture partnered with Turner to produce and promote Animal Kingdom’s Austin popup space, including a surfable wave pool (complete with pro surfers), a custom Vans bar, and more. We also caught up with three of Animal Kingdom’s “Cody boys” — Shawn Hatosy (Pope), Finn Cole (J), and Ben Robson (Craig) — after they gave surfing in the middle of Austin a whirl. We talked about the family dynamic offscreen, the upcoming season two premiere (which picks up on the heels of a murder and a massive heist), and more.
