Breezed through the first season of Mr. Mayor. All right, but basically if you've seen 30 Rock you more or less have already seen this. Co-written by Tina Fey, but not different enough from 30 Rock to make it stand out. Kind of a mixture of that and Veep maybe? Danson gets to do some self-deprecatory humour based on his age and out-of-touchness, so that's good, but overall I'd say worth looking at, but don't expect too much. Some pretty cliched characters mostly carried over in spirit from 30 Rock. Sorry, you can't watch it without the name popping up in your head all the time.
On the other hand, if you haven't seen 30 Rock you may enjoy this on its own merits.
