Hizzonner is an American television sitcom that aired on NBC on Thursday nights from May 10 to June 14, 1979. David Huddleston not only starred, he was also executive producer, wrote the theme song, and did the majority of the casting.[1]

Synopsis

[edit]

The series centered on Mayor Cooper, a widower with two grown children, Annie, a civil rights attorney, and James, a hippie.

An aspect of the series is that when things would get out of hand, Mayor Cooper would break into song and there was always a musical number in each episode.
