Dan for Mayor is a Canadian television sitcom starring Fred Ewanuick that debuted on March 1, 2010 on CTV and The Comedy Network.[1] It premiered the same night as Hiccups, a show created by Corner Gas star Brent Butt that also features Butt's wife and fellow Corner Gas alumna Nancy Robertson. On June 7, 2010, both Dan for Mayor and Hiccups were renewed for a second season. The second season premiered on June 5, 2011.[2]

Premise

The series stars Ewanuick as Dan, a slacker in his early 30s, who finds himself running for mayor of Wessex, a fictitious city in Ontario, in the 2010 municipal elections, after a chance comment. When his opponent, incumbent mayor Bud, is hit by a bus and killed, Dan becomes the only mayoral candidate whereupon he reopens the candidacy for a fair race. In the show's second season, Dan takes office as the city's new mayor, finding himself woefully unprepared for the job.

The cast also includes Mary Ashton, Paul Bates, Benjamin Ayres, David Ferry, Suzanne Coy, Laurie Murdoch, and Agam Darshi.

Filming locations

The series' location shooting takes place entirely in Kitchener and Waterloo, Ontario; recognizable locations include Kitchener City Hall (as Wessex City Hall) and the Huether Hotel (as Fern's Grill, Dan's workplace).
