Premieres Sunday, September 19 at 8 p.m. with two back-to-back episodes

Call Me Fitz stars Jason Priestley as Richard “Fitz” Fitzpatrick, a handsome, substance-abusing used-car salesman who torments his naïve co-workers, sleeps with any woman who has a pulse, and thinks his life is perfect. His sybaritic lifestyle undergoes a radical transformation after a disastrous test-drive puts a potential customer in a coma and unleashes Fitz’s conscience, literally, in the form of Larry, a gentle man intent on rehabilitating Fitz’s battered psyche. Also starring Ernest Grunwald, Peter MacNeill, Kathleen Munroe, Tracy Dawson, Donavon Stinson and Brooke Nevin.

From Lori Littleton of the Welland Tribune:

• Another shot of Dusk
  “When the character, who ironically considers himself to be the embodiment of class, thinks to himself, he adopts a soundtrack that represents the classic Vegas crooners — that’s when Dusk will be heard. For the show, he recently recorded classics, such as Yes I Can, That’s Life, Get Me on Your Mind, Anytime at All and two original songs he penned himself, with big band arrangements.” Read more.

From Ruth Myles of the Calgary Herald:

• I Smell A Rat
  “Richard (Fitz) Fitzpatrick was born 40 years too late and four buddies short of a Rat Pack. The anti-hero of Call Me Fitz says things like ‘ring-a-ding-ding, baby, ring-a-ding-ding’ and dreams of working the stage in his own old-school lounge before taking the show to Vegas. Then again, he’s never come across a substance that he doesn’t gleefully abuse, drops lines like ‘f.. k Jerry’s kids’ and is an embezzling, duplicitous skirt chaser. Did I mention that he’s an anti-hero?” Read more.
