Ted Danson may be 73 years old but he shows once again that he is a veteran of television and deserves the big star on his name over the theater marquee. Based on this pilot episode I think this new comedy series will be especially appreciated by anyone gainfully employed in civic politics who thinks their elected officials are breathing air belonging to someone else. Ted Danson who plays retired Los Angeles businessman and millionaire Neil Bremer decides to run for Mayor of Los Angeles just to impress his daughter and he is shocked to win the job.
The ensemble cast is supported by Saturday Night Live former cast members such as Rachel Dracht, and Bobby Moynihan, the creepy looking munchkin Holly Hunter (what happened to you Holly?) who the Mayor makes Deputy Mayor to keep his enemy closer and an eclectic cast of up and comers who believe they really run the Mayor's office and can influence his decisions which proves to be harder than they thought. Will this show survive a season one (1)? Hell yeah! Mayor Neil Bremer will definitely be running for re-election next season too!
I give this pilot episode an 8 out of 10 IMDB rating and I look forward to watching more of this new comedy series because we all know how hilarious politicians are when they get in front of any camera.
