Mayor of Kingstown (2021– )
4/10
Not so great
2 October 2022
Jeremy Renner is making the most out of unrealistic, overacted, violent and somewhat meaningless scripts in this series. He's really good as always. The characters around him (especially the cops) are shallow, always out to lynch someone and mete out street justice. It feels over the top.

Dianne Wiest - heavyweight talent - is wasted as the prison teacher and mom to the McLusky boys, and I'm four episodes in and sadly don't care what happens next. Little to no character development has left me kind of cold. We're picking up in the middle of these people's lives and we don't know much of anything of how they got to where they are. I feel like they're exceptionally complex characters who deserve a backstory - even 4 episodes in.

It may hold my attention for another couple of episodes but it's nowhere near an 8.2 on any planet at this point.
