Jack McLaren works at Colburn & Whitney Advertising. Jack is notorious cynic and a master at closing deals so he's nicknamed 'The Closer'. Jack's staff includes his tough talking assistant Beverly Andolini, copy writer Bruno Verma, and long-term veteran Carl ""Dobbs"" Dobson. A new accountant, Erica Hewitt, is sent from New York to work for him. However, Erica finds herself unemployed after less than 20 minutes at her new job and so does the other, thanks to Jack: in an attempt to get to handle the coast guard's advertising, Jack has played golf with the President and beaten him. The President gets them all fired, but Jack convinces another company, Cutcher & Willhaven, to hire him and give him a huge salary. He doesn't seem to care about the people he's been working with for years. Jack tries to reconcile with his estranged wife Claire but she's tired of his cynicism and hands him the divorce papers. Jack grows a conscience, buys a small, run-down factory and starts up McLaren & Associa

Wild Cards

Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.

In this workplace comedy, a group of dedicated, passionate teachers — and a slightly tone-deaf principal — are brought together in a Philadelphia public school where, despite the odds stacked against them, they are determined to help their students succeed in life. Though these incredible public servants may be outnumbered and underfunded, they love what they do — even if they don't love the school district's less-than-stellar attitude toward educating children.
