The McLusky family are finally returning to television with the long-awaited Mayor of Kingstown Season 3, once again starring Jeremy Renner. The hit series co-created by television guru Taylor Sheridan has become a big hit for the streaming world, but there was understandable concern that the show would not be returning following Jeremy Renner’s serious snowplow accident. Thankfully, Renner has recovered from the accident and is back and ready to return to the role of Mike McLusky.
Taking place in a small, remote town in Michigan, the story of Mayor of Kingstown begins with the McLusky family – a very powerful dynasty that runs Kingstown’s local prison facilities. Not only do they run the prison’s daily operations, but they also indulge in shady operations to keep themselves in power and stop the various factions of the town and prison from tearing themselves apart. Everything changes when the town’s mayor and Mike’s brother, Mitch (Kyle Chandler), is killed, and Mike has to pick up the pieces in his stead.
To find out where and how you can see the next chapter in the McLuskys’ story unfold, here is when you can watch Mayor of Kingstown Season 3.
Mayor of Kingstown
In Kingstown, a city plagued by corruption and crime, the McLusky family serves as crucial mediators between law enforcement, criminal factions, and the prison system. Mike McLusky, taking over after his brother’s untimely death, tries to maintain a precarious peace amidst widespread corruption and violence. As he juggles the demands of the various power players and seeks justice for the community, Mike encounters relentless challenges that push him to his limits and question his own moral boundaries.

Is ‘Mayor of Kingstown’ Season 3 Premiering on TV?
Unfortunately for live-television fans, Mayor of Kingstown Season 3 will not be premiering on cable, as the upcoming season will require a streaming subscription to see the McLusky family back in action. Paramount has not currently announced plans for Season 3 of Mayor of Kingstown to come to television, but the production company has done that before with the wildly successful Yellowstone.
Is ‘Mayor of Kingstown’ Season 3 Streaming Online?
Just like the last two seasons, Mayor of Kingstown Season 3 will be streaming exclusively on Paramount+ once it premieres on Sunday, June 2nd, 2024. A release on Paramount+ should hardly surprise followers of Taylor Sheridan, as he’s enjoyed a fruitful collaboration with Paramount since he developed the ludicrously popular Yellowstone (as well as its numerous ongoing spin-off shows). In addition to the crime-riddled world of Mayor of Kingstown and the Western family drama of Yellowstone, Sheridan also had a hand in bringing to life Sylvester Stallone’s fish-out-of-water mafia show Tulsa King and Zoe Saldana’s military thriller, Special Ops: Lioness.

Other Taylor Sheridan Shows You Can Watch Right Now
‘Yellowstone’ (2018-)

The drama surrounding the making of Yellowstone, namely the alleged feud between creator Taylor Sheridan and star Kevin Costner, is almost as dramatic as the challenges the Dutton family go through. Still, that hasn’t stopped Yellowstone from becoming one of the most successful shows in the last decade, as fans just continue to tune into the wild Western world of the Dutton saga. It’s no wonder why the show has inspired several prequels and spin-offs, with shows like 1883, 1923, and several others currently in development. Yellowstone is currently available to stream on Peacock.

Manfredi’s methods are unorthodox to say the least, but he’s still willing to do whatever it takes to declare himself the king of Tulsa. Tulsa King is currently available to stream on Paramount+.
