FOX’s The Grinder: Is This Rob Lowe Comedy Worth Watching?

Published: Sept. 23, 2015, 4 a.m.

In this episode we preview FOX’s new comedy The Grinder. It stars Rob Lowe (Parks & Recreation, The West Wing), Fred Savage (The Wonder Years), William Devane (24: Live Another Day), Mary Elizabeth Ellis (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) and Natalie Morales (Trophy Wife, The Middleman).
The Grinder is a about two brothers. One who has always been in the spotlight, as an actor who played TV’s most popular lawyer who has come home to take stock of his life and the choices he has made. The other is a real-life, small-town attorney who has yet to really find his spotlight and could use a little spark in his life. Will they be able to help each other find what is missing in their lives?
The Grinder is one of my favorite new comedies for Fall 2015. But, given some of the behind the scenes machinations, we will have to see if it lives up to the fun “Pilot” episode.
