What is Mayor of Kingstown season 3 all about?

Mayor of Kingstown season 3 would pick up right at the end of the previous installment. Season 2 dealt with the aftermath of the prison riot that concluded season 1, with a big emphasis on the rivalry between Milo and Mike, and Mike's deteriorating relationship with Bunny.

The highlight of second season's ending was Milo, the Russian mobster faking his own death in a boat explosion. The new season might focus on him making Mike's life difficult.

The teaser for Mayor of Kingstown season 3, is narrated by Jeremy Renner's character Mike McLusky, who seems to be juggling between balancing the good, the evil, and the in-betweens.

In the trailer, Mike McLusky gives a short monologue:

"Five percent of people are truly good. Five percent are evil. Rest of us, we wrestle between the two."

Though the teaser for season 3 doesn't reveal any major plot points, it promises an action-packed and violent new installment of the show.


With Mayor of Kingstown season 3, creator Taylor Sheridan would want to continue his streak of success with Paramount Plus. He has already given two successful shows to the platform, namely Yellowstone and Tulsa King.

With its stellar cast, including Jeremy Renner in a career-defining role, season 3 of the successful series promises a riveting exploration of politics, crime, and the human condition.


Season 1 and 2 of Mayor of Kingston are available to stream on Paramount Plus.
