In the final season, Joe finds himself back in New York, facing his past and dark desires that threaten his "perfect life" as society's "Prince Charming."

The show's co-showrunner and executive producer, Michael Foley, explained that the decision to end the series after five seasons was intentional to bring Joe's story full circle.
