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.
