Paramount+ Sets Eight-Episode Final Season for Mayor of Kingstown

The shortened farewell reflects a strategic recalibration of Taylor Sheridan titles under new leadership.

Overview

  • Paramount+ ordered Season 5 as the series’ concluding chapter with eight episodes.
  • Jeremy Renner will return as Mike McLusky, with Edie Falco expected to remain a key presence.
  • The final run will explore the fallout from Season 4’s violent climax without revealing story details.
  • The decision follows corporate shifts and cost/viewership considerations, even as critical scores rose to 100% for Season 4.
  • Industry reporting says a six-episode end was discussed before the parties settled on eight, making this the first ongoing Sheridan series at Paramount+ to receive a set end date under the new regime.
