Johnston Jacob Green, Sr., is a character on the US post-apocalyptic drama Jericho. He is played by Gerald McRaney.
Johnston was the mayor of the town of Jericho, Kansas for 25 years. He has a strained relationship with his son Jake, who left town many years ago only to return to pick up an inheritance from his recently deceased grandfather. Johnston's political rival is Gray Anderson, who won an election against him in episode 11 "Vox Populi".
After the a nuclear bomb explodes in Denver, Colorado, Mayor Green leads the effort to prepare for the worst, though several characters have called into question his leadership capabilities. During an evacuation to a fallout shelter, his wife, Gail, discovers him unconscious in his office. He was treated at the shelter and appeared to regain consciousness, and the cause of his collapse was initially revealed to be a case of the flu. In episode seven, he experiences severe septic shock, and as the episode ends, Jake and Eric are driving to another city to get the medicine he needs.
Little is known about Mayor Green's background, but in the pilot episode he states that he has lived in many cities and countries, indicating a background involving travel. In addition, in episode three, Four Horsemen, during a confrontation with his political opponent Gray Anderson, Mayor Green strikes him in the solar plexus with a particular palm-strike that seems to indicate martial arts training at some point in his life. In episode five, Federal Response, Mayor Green is shown donning firefighter bunker gear, indicating that he is a firefighter, possibly a member of Jericho's Volunteer Fire Department. It is also revealed in episode 13 The Day Before, that as mayor he neglected some of his family duties in order to "better serve the town", in violation of an promise he made to his wife. This is heard when his son Eric mentions that he was not around to see him win the minor league at school, when he was in year 3. In episode thirteen the Mayor reveals that he was a member of the U.S. Army Rangers, and a combat veteran quite possibly during the Vietnam War given his age of 59.
