Spin City Bets The Farm

Tonight's the night. Tonight we get to see if Spin City will be worth a damn with Charlie Sheen as the new co-star. With Micheal J. Fox leaving Spin City last year, the future of the show was up in the air. Shortly thereafter, Charlie Sheen signed on to replace Fox. Producers are betting that Sheen will be a good replacement for Mike. In the series, Sheen will take the role of Deputy Mayor, and the series will play on his "bad boy" attitude. The show starts at 9:30 EDT. I hope like hell the show is still good. It's one of the few sitcoms that was worth altering your schedule to catch, and hopefully it will still be that way. I think they might actually pull it off with Charlie Sheen, but it won't be the same without Micheal J. Fox. I guess we'll find out tonight.

Well, I don't know about the rest of you, but I watched it... 

I think they pulled it off. Charlie Sheen was funny, looked comfortable, and he seemed to jell withthe other actors. I think this goes to show that the series has a great bunch of writers that can come up with great material. Of course, with things like this you can't base your opinion off of one episode, but I think that Spin City will be successful minus Micheal J. Fox.
