Spin City

Spin City was an American sitcom television series that ran from 1996 to 2002 on ABC, based on a fictional local government running New York City, originally starring Michael J. Fox as Mike Flaherty, the Deputy Mayor of New York. The show was cancelled along with Dharma & Greg and Once and Again in 2002 due to low ratings from the 2001–2002 season and a change in target demographics.

The series focuses on the Mayor of New York City, Randall Winston (Barry Bostwick), and his staff as they run the city — although the main person in charge is Deputy Mayor Mike Flaherty (Fox). Mike is excellent at his job, dealing with spin and lies, but not so good with his personal life, which he often neglects.

Other members of staff at City Hall include press secretary Paul Lassiter (Richard Kind), the office cheapskate, suck-up, and noted coward, who has a habit of being a loudmouth and is often kept in the dark about things; chief of staff Stuart Bondek (Alan Ruck), who loves the ladies and is often very sexist; head of minority affairs Carter Heywood (Michael Boatman), who is a gay black man who owns a suicidal dog named Rags.

Despite their overwhelming personal differences, Stuart and Carter actually become roommates and the best of friends; speech writer James Hobert (Alexander Chaplin), who is easily led and quite naive; the Mayor's secretary Janelle Cooper (Victoria Dillard); Mike's secretary Stacy Paterno (Jennifer Esposito); and his assistant Nikki Faber (Connie Britton). Each of them has to help run City Hall, improving the Mayor's image and cover for his frequent gaffes, while sorting out their personal lives.

Spin City Comments

What has happened to Michael J Fox? I know he had alsheimers disease and wasn't to too great but he was always a favorite actor of mine, ever since the ol days of teen wolf! I did actually see him play a cameo role for a few episodes in Boston Legal but I would love to know any other shows that he may cameo/full time in..

I don't of any new series or anything he will be in, but i did see recently that he has released a big DVD collection of his favorite sitcoms
