Spin City
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.
Season 1
Behind every great mayor is a team barely holding it together. Deputy Mayor Mike Flaherty juggles political fires, public relations nightmares, and a staff full of lovable misfits in this fast-paced political comedy.
Season 2
With chaos around every corner, Mike keeps City Hall running—barely. From media scandals to romantic entanglements, the laughs and spin intensify in this sharp and witty second season.
Season 3
Scandal, spin, and snarky one-liners return as Mike tries to manage the mayor, the staff, and his personal life—often at the same time. Season 3 ups the ante with bigger laughs and even bigger political gaffes.
Season 4
The pressure’s on as Mike faces tougher political battles and even messier relationships. As the team fumbles through city politics and office antics, loyalty and love are put to the test.
Season 5
Change hits City Hall as Mike says goodbye and Charlie Sheen joins the chaos. The spin machine keeps churning with a new Deputy Mayor, but the dysfunction—and the laughs—remain.

As the team faces scandals, surprises, and shifting loyalties, Season 6 delivers a witty and heartfelt conclusion to the series.
