From Brad Oswald of the Winnipeg Free Press:

• Character a total sleaze ball but he’s ‘doing the best he can’
  “He’s a drunk. And a drug abuser. And a liar, a cheat, a low-grade thief, a serial philanderer and an all-around sleazeball. And on top of all that, he’s a used-car salesman. You might think there’s not much to like about Richard (Fitz) Fitzpatrick, but Jason Priestley flat-out loves the guy.” Read more.

From Bill Harris of QMI Agency:

• Priestley gets sleazy in new TV role
  “Numerically speaking, there probably are 90,210 reasons that Jason Priestley loves playing characters with questionable morals.” Read more.

From Ian Johnston of Metro Canada (bonus: play spot the typos in the headline!):

• Priestley takes sleazy, morally bankrupt turn in Call Me Fitz
  “Jason Priestley gives used car salesmen an even badder name in the new comedy series Call Me Fitz. As the hard-drinking, embezzling, egomaniacal womanizer Richard Fitzpatrick, Priestley obliterates all lingering thoughts of him as likable teen Brandon Walsh on Beverly Hills 90201.” Read more.

From a media release:

HBO CANADA OFFERS FREE ONLINE PREVIEW OF JASON PRIESTLEY IN THE EDGY NEW CANADIAN COMEDY, CALL ME FITZ

• Premiere episode now available at www.hbocanada.com
• Call Me Fitz premieres Sunday, September 19 at 8 p.m. ET/MT

HBO Canada, a multiplex channel of Corus Entertainment’s Movie Central (Western Canada) and Astral’s The Movie Network (Eastern Canada), is giving Canadians a sneak peek at the first episode of Call Me Fitz, a biting, dark comedy about a morally bankrupt yet charismatic used-car salesman who is forced to become business partners with his inner conscience. The online preview is now available at: http://www.hbocanada.com/callmefitz/sneakpeek.php.

See Jason Priestley in his much talked about role as Richard Fitzpatrick, the morally bankrupt used-car salesman who may after all have a conscience. Created by Sheri Elwood (Defying Gravity), Call Me Fitz tells the story of a handsome, substance-abusing scoundrel who torments his naïve co-workers, stoops to shameful lows to get the best of the competition, sleeps with any woman who has a pulse and thinks his life is perfect. That is, until a major accident unleashes something from within Fitz – the actual living embodiment of his conscience, or at least that’s what Larry, the tall and lanky do-gooder, claims to be. As the last unblemished corner of Fitz’s damaged soul, Larry is intent on rehabilitating Fitz’s battered psyche and, in turn, the entire Fitzpatrick family’s sleazy way of life, one disaster at a time.

Call Me Fitz will premiere Sunday, September 19 at 8 p.m. ET/MT with back-to-back episodes before the premiere of HBO’s Boardwalk Empire at 9 p.m. ET/MT. New episodes of Call Me Fitz will air regularly at 8:30 p.m. ET/MT on Sundays on HBO Canada.
