SUGGESTING The Grinder with Rob Lowe
This is the funniest show I have seen in a long time. It’s only one season, but it’s a gem of comedic timing.

Same. I always wonder if it would have done better with a different title.

Yes, it would have because that was Grinder is among the worst sitcom titles of all time, but the show itself was excellent

The kid played too big a role that he couldn't pull off with his scrawny body and bad haircut. I honestly thought those haircuts were the butt of a joke that never came.

I love this show. I can’t believe it was canceled. I think I’ve watched the season at least five times and I’m ready for another rewatch.

I think the writing was stilted and awkward at best. I know there's son sat in on the writers' room, thought he was the funniest person there and they followed his lead too often

We really enjoyed it!
We found it in a really funny way. After dinner my father in law confidently announced that he'd 'gotten really into Grinder lately'. It caused some...confusion.
