Spin City

Michael J. Fox left Spin City in 2000 after publicly revealing his Parkinson's disease diagnosis in 1998. He departed after season 4, though he returned for guest appearances in later seasons, and his departure was written into the storyline as his character Charlie Crawford taking a new job in Washington, D.C.

Charlie Sheen joined Spin City as the new lead character, Charlie Crawford, starting in season 5 (2000–2001). He replaced Michael J. Fox and remained with the show through its final season in 2002, playing a deputy mayor with a very different personality from Fox's character.

Spin City has been available on various streaming platforms over the years, but availability changes frequently. As of the mid-2020s, checking services like Pluto TV or purchasing episodes on Amazon Prime Video and iTunes are common options, though it is worth verifying current listings.

Spin City was set in a fictionalized New York City mayor's office and drew comedic inspiration from real political dynamics, though it was not based on any specific real administration. The show's mayor character, Randall Winston, was notably inept, contrasting with the sharp deputy mayor played by Michael J. Fox.
