The Taylor Sheridan universe continues to dominate the landscape of television. When one show goes on hiatus, another one begins its run. As Yellowstone takes a midseason break, Mayor of Kingstown returns for its second season.
Mayor of Kingstown is a crime thriller that stars Jeremy Renner as Mike McLusky, a member of a powerful family in Kingstown, Michigan, that serves as the power broker within the incarceration business. According to the official synopsis, Mayor of Kingstown tackles themes of “systemic racism, corruption, and inequality” as the series “provides a stark look at their attempt to bring order and justice to a town that has neither.”
