‘Mayor of Kingstown’ Ending With Season 5: What We Know About Jeremy Renner’s Final Season ...Saudi Arabia

It seems that five seasons is the sweet spot for Paramount. Most of their series run for five seasons before calling it quits. I guess they’d rather end on a high note than dragging it on past its prime and I can respect that even I wish for another five seasons of almost every show they have! Alas, all good things must come to an end and so it is with Mayor of Kingstown. Paramount announced that the show was renewed for a fifth and final season. The shortened eight-episode Season 5 will see the return of Jeremy Renner in the lead role of Mike McLusky along with series regulars Taylor Handley, Hugh Dillon, Tobi Bamtefa, and last season’s cast additions Edie Falco and Laura Benanti.

What happened in Mayor of Kingstown Season 1?

There is definitely no shortage of death or violence in the fictional city of Kingstown. In the show’s premiere, prodigal eldest son and “mayor” Mitch McLusky (Kyle Chandler) is gunned down and robbed. Upon his death, middle son, Mike McLusky (Jeremy Renner) reluctantly takes the helm as Mayor of Kingstown. Having been incarcerated himself, Mike doesn’t rule with the same diplomacy as his brother. When he learns his brother had a working relationship with Milo Sunter (Aiden Gillen), a gangland boss still running his business even though he’s been in prison for almost a decade, Mike refuses to take his brother’s place. After they beat up and threaten the life of Iris (Emma Laird), an escort the Russian Mafia uses to get people like Mike to comply, Mike agrees to a meeting with Milo.

Believing Milo wants him to run the same “errand” as he asked of Mitch, Mike heads to the woods to retrieve a package Milo has given him the coordinates for. Upon digging up said package, he instead finds a buried school bus with the remains of over two dozen victims of a serial killer.

Later, after Mike has rescued Iris, they spend time at his cabin in the woods for some emotional and psychological healing, both unaware of a riot going on at the prisons where Mike’s brother, Kyle (Taylor Handley) is trapped. Many lives are lost on both sides of the law. During the chaos, Milo manages to steal a guard uniform and escapes the prison undetected.

The prisons were so badly damaged in the riots that the prisoners must live temporarily in a makeshift campsite. Most, if not all of the old gang leaders are dead or missing so new contenders vie for control.

What happened in Season 3 of Mayor of Kingstown?

In Season 3, a series of explosions rocked Kingstown and its citizens, as a new face of the Russian mob sets up shop in the city, and a drug war raged inside and outside the prison walls. The pressure was on Mike McLusky to end the war but things got complicated when a familiar face from his incarcerated past threatened to undermine the mayor’s attempt to keep the peace among all factions.

What happened in Season 4 of Mayor of Kingstown?

In season four, Mike’s control over Kingstown is threatened as new players compete to fill the power vacuum left in the Russians’ wake, compelling him to confront the resulting gang war and stop them from swallowing the town. Meanwhile, with those he loves in more danger than ever before, Mike must contend with a headstrong new Warden to protect his own while grappling with demons from his past.

After his partner dies in a shooting, the additional trauma starts to affect his personal relationships too. In Season 3, Kyle shot and killed a corrupt police officer and took a plea deal with a short prison sentence to spare Kingstown and his brother that an impending trial would bring them. With the death of his wife and the revenge on Callahan, the mental stress may finally take its toll on Kyle.
