Workaholic Mike Flaherty is the Deputy Mayor of New York City, serving as Mayor Randall Winston's key strategist and much-needed handler. Mike runs the city with the help of his oddball staff: an anxious and insecure press secretary; a sexist, boorish chief of staff; an impeccably groomed gay activist running minority affairs; a sharp and efficient, man-crazy accountant; and an idealistic young speechwriter. Like Mike, they are all professionally capable but personally challenged.

User Reviews

This is a fairly standard 90s sitcom. It got better when Charlie Sheen came on board.

Spin City is a fantasy. Real NYC politics is down & dirty. Fairy tales make life easier to tolerate.

Michael J Fox always delivers. Light. Fun. Easy to watch.

It’s been a long time but it was funny back then

Tried to watch this as a teen but didn’t catch most of the witty humor and deeper relationships.

Fun ensemble workplace comedy carried by the charm of Michael J. Fox. Once he left after his Parkinson’s diagnosis, the show lost its shine.

This was a great sitcom with Michael J Fox. After he left it went downhill.

So great. Started its downhill slide with HL, but when MJF had to leave (sadly), the show really lost its way. Shame. Great OG ensemble.

Never got into it - not aligned with my sense of humour.

Different kind of sitcom about the inter workings of the mayors office
