The Grinder: Post #2

Posted on by

As the season premier air-date quickly approaches, many Lowe fans are prepping for his debut. Rob Lowe, a co-lead in the new series is not the only one to keep a close eye on however. Fred Savage, former star of the hit series The Wonder Years, which ran an impressive six seasons, is brushing up on his acting skills after filling the Directors position for some time on several hit comedy series. Also known for his TV roles on NBC’s show Workin‘ (1999-2000) and 2006’s Crumb, Savage will be stepping down from his behind the camera position and taking hold of the acting reigns once again playing the role of lawyer Stewart Sanderson, brother of Dean (Rob Lowe). Perhaps his eight year hiatus will do him good and encourage an older audience to tune in and watch their favorite childhood actor.

In May, Fox proudly announced their 2015-2016 new primetime series, introducing four new comedies. One of which titled,“The Grinder,” certainly possesses star power with a cast including Rob Lowe and Fred Savage as co-leads.

The Grinder

The show’s storyline follows a dashing accomplished actor returning home to Boise, Idaho after his long running show of eight seasons ends. Playing the role of “Hollywood’s most famous lawyer” on the fictional series “The Grinder,” Dean Sanderson (Rob Lowe), finds solace in realizing he wants to now use his said “experience” with law and join his family law practice where his father (William Devane) and brother (Fred Savage) are both employed. Family shenanigans and sibling rifts ensue making for good humor.

With Rob Lowe returning to television after his time spent on the set of NBC’s Parks & Recreation, fans are excited to see what he has in store for this new series.

The show airs Tuesday September 29th 8:30/7:30 PM-Central
