The Grinder - Season 1
The Grinders is a new comedy about two brothers: one a spotlight-grabbing actor who plays TV’s most popular lawyer and the other, a real-life, small-town attorney who has yet to find his spotlight. Television lawyer Dean Sanderson moves back to his small home town after a stint in Hollywood thinking his time on TV qualifies him to run his family's law firm.

The Grinder is clever. It has a great time sending up the clichés of lawyer shows, while also reveling in them.

The pilot has its moments.

Rob Lowe and Fred Savage play brothers, which by itself requires a massive suspension of disbelief. Savage's Stewart Anderson is a lawyer, and Lowe's Dean Anderson plays one on TV. WORLDS COLLIDE.
September 23, 2015
Lowe and Savage have a relaxed brotherly chemistry, and the show has fun playing with legal-drama conventions.

It works because, instead of running from them, it embraces and celebrates the conventions of broadcast TV. It doesn't try to be a cable series. In a strange way this season, that makes it the cool show.

It's probably the best half hour network comedy of the season.
