... the comedy is a sweet political parody that celebrates the best in people.

Hall evokes [a] Stewart classic, Jefferson Smith in Capra's Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. TV creators could do worse than look to the films of Frank Capra for inspiration.

A feel-good show about a political upstart... That's just one of several reasons to embrace The Mayor, among the new season's very few truly original comedies. Another reason to celebrate: the star-is-born arrival of Brandon Micheal Hall.

But from the first seconds of The Mayor it's apparent that [Brandon Michael] Hall is a star fully equipped to capture Courtney's casual charisma.

The show has helped create a novel showcase for Hall's talent.

It's here to subtly remind viewers of what politicians are meant to do, while entertaining them with clever humor and human stories.

The Mayor might seem like a small-scale version of another duly elected leader, but it's among the fall TV season's more promising series, with the disclaimer that the protagonist's shtick might begin to get old before he completes a season.

Faintly charming and landing an occasional punchline like that one, The Mayor is somewhat more amusing than open-mic night at a college pub, but that's about as extravagant as the praise is going to get.

This show needs to slow down, take a breath, develop the characters and most of all, make certain Hall is on screen most of the time. He's pure charisma. His show's a pure muddle.
