Welcome back to Spin City, as we pick up on Season Six, Mayor Randall continue his tenure with his trusty deputy-mayor, Charlie Crawford (Charlie Sheen) and rest of the Mayor's entourage.  They run city hall and help keep the Mayor's image from falling down, but behind closed city hall office doors all sorts of shenanigans are happening.  As Mayor Randall runs for re-election, Mike (Michael J. Fox) comes back and faces off with Charlie in both position and as Caitlin's ex boyfriend, putting Charlie under a competitive heat.  It's the final big send off for Spin City and what happens to everyone.
 
In this Final Season, we get re-election, love, romance and revelations for all the characters.  As the competition for re-election goes on it all rules are thrown out the window, including getting dirt on other team, sleeping with the enemy, and even getting Randall in a dress, but with all the politics and relationships going on, Charlie and Caitlin begin to realize their feelings toward each other, and Carter becomes an adoptive father.
 
Spin City is a comical drama, making fun of government figures, stereotypes, office politics, romance and much more.  The cast feature a rich (but clueless) mayor, a shrewd (playboy) deputy major, a sexy campaign manager, an idiotic loudmouth press secretary, a perverted chief of staff and a gay black man with minority relations, together the form a funny political team often getting on each other nerves and interfering with each other's personal agendas, but in the end they are more like family to each other, accepting each others faults and all.
