Michael J. Fox, star and executive producer of ABC TV's series "Spin City," briefs the Television Critics Association on the new series in Pasadena, Calif., in this July 24, 1996 photo. Fox, who plays the deputy mayor of New York on the show, went to the real City Hall Tuesday, Feb. 4, 1997, and appeared at a news conference with Mayor Rudolph Giuliani. Fox apologized to the real mayor of New York, just in case he was offended by the sitcom, which features a bumbling fictional mayor and anout-of-control City Hall. (AP Photo/Kevork Djansezian)
