Mayor Swan's Day Off

In a bid to find a way to increase their slumping ratings and keep their jobs, the City of Kissimmee's TV station, known as Access Osceola, is about to release what they hope will be a hit governmental situation comedy called "Mayor Swan's Day Off." This fast paced anything goes comedy about a Mayor determined to take a day off in search of adventure in the middle of an economic crisis, promises to be one heck of a knee-slapper.
Reminiscent of the 1986 hit "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," the govcom starts with our restless mayor convincing the rest of the commission that by working one less day even though hours, resources, and people would not be reduced, that the city could save millions of dollars. In an exchange that reminds us of the movie "Spinal Tap" where one band member explains that they have the loudest amplifiers because their volume knobs can be turned up to 11 on the dial instead of only 10 like other bands, Mayor Swan just continually repeats the statement "We will be working one less day." Confused by the repetition and scared that they might be missing some key piece of evidence that will make them look stupid, the rest of the commission agrees with Mayor Swan, starting his wild and zany adventures in the big city of Orlando. With his best friend, Commissioner Irizarry who's part is like the depressed and unhappy 'Cameron' character, they start their big day by swiping a code enforcement truck after they realize that most of their 'Day Off' would be wasted if they were to wait for a Lynx bus to show up.

Commissioner Art Otero, much like the character 'Ed Rooney', realizes the deceit and goes after Mayor Swan with the belief that if Mayor Swan enjoys his day off, economic development will grind to a halt. Watching Commissioner Otero chasing Mayor Swan from a Magic game to Gay Days parade where they mayor performs the song "Boogie Fever", you will wonder if the hijinks will ever end in this guaranteed public access block buster.
The WayneWho Staff gives "Mayor Swan's Day Off" four Osceolas and suggest you Tivo it to watch it time and time again.
