Plot Synopsis

Created and executive produced by Taylor Sheridan and series star Hugh Dillon, MAYOR OF KINGSTOWN follows the McLusky family -- power brokers in Kingstown, Michigan where the business of incarceration is the only thriving industry. Brothers Mitch and Mike McLusky navigate Kingstown, home to multiple prisons, as they act as the liaisons between prisoners and the community. When a young guard, Sam, is set up to deliver a letter for a prisoner, Mike works to get him off the hook. Later, local gang leader Bunny is upset when one of his guys gets taken off the yard, so Mike brokers a deal -- and is later visited by two FBI agents whom Mitch worked for. Tackling themes of systemic racism, corruption and inequality, the series provides a stark look at their attempt to bring order and justice to a town that has neither.
