Mr. Mayor is written and created by Tina Fey and Robert Carlock (30 Rock). It is executive produced by Fey, Carlock, Jeff Richmond and David Miner. The project was originally meant as a spin-off to 30 Rock with Alec Baldwin reprising the role of Jack Donaghy. However, Baldwin had decided to exit the series and was then rewritten to be set in Los Angeles instead of New York City.
