The Grinder isn’t the only show from FOX’s Tuesday night block to be cancelled. TVLine reports the network has also cancelled Grandfathered after one season.
The comedy starred John Stamos as an aging ladies’ man who discovers not only does he have a son (Josh Peck) he never knew about, but he also has a new granddaughter. Paget Brewster, Christina Milian, Kelly Jenrette, and Ravi Patel also starred.
Ratings were never particularly high during Grandfathered‘s first season, with the show only receiving an average of .92 in the 18-49 demo and a total of 2.728 million viewers.
Josh Peck confirmed the cancellation on his Twitter:
Thank you for watching and supporting @Grandfathered I'm sorry it's over but I feel lucky to have been a part of it! https://t.co/QqVgY63xBM

What do you think? Did you watch Grandfathered? Do you think the show should’ve continued?
Show was put behind grinder which was terrible put before grinder probably would have made it. How do get fox to put it back on in better time slot
I am so bummed that “grandfathered” got cancelled. I am not a fan of all the dramatic or reality tv shows and i really looked forward to this show. Tuesday night was a great night to watxh fox and i am really going to miss this show. I thought the actors had a geeat connection and i loved the cute humor. Im so bummed
Please bring it back! It was an excellent family sitcom!
I’m from indonesia and really sad that grandfathered should be cancelled! It’s such an awesome show teach us about real life, family and things! Please bring it back!! We’re tired about reality show! We need something like this. Pls consider it
Put this show in the right time and its a hit. Put it on before the crummy show it followed which was canx and this show survives
This was a great show!! Why are all the good ones being cancelled??? Please bring it back!!!
The Grinder and Grandfathered were the first sitcoms that were edgy, funny, and entertaining that my husband and I have seen in a very long time. It’s a shame they’ve been canceled. If FOX were to give them an additional season, I’m sure the ratings would have improved. FOX has made a hasty and very poor decision. Shame on them!
Never seen The Grinder but Grandfathered was such a great show! Sucks that it was cancelled. Hope they reconsider.
I loved it!
I can’t believe it was cancelled! I just found and didn’t even know about the ratings.. I can’t believe this story will end with Jimmy being stood up!!! My heart breaks!!
I agree !!! They could atleast give us 1 last episode with some closure.
Finally, get some good sitcoms instead of reality, reality, and more reality shows. Bad decision Fox!!
I’m a 52 yr old male and thought the show was well written. The cast really grew on you and I am disappointed they got the axe. Same with The Grinder. Both shows should be coming back!
I’m devestated that Granfathered has been cancelled! Bring it baaaack!!!!
We are very disappointed about cancellation of Grandfathered and The Grinder! We looked forward to both of them every week! I don’t get it.
Really good show, one of the best. Dont get why.
So sad they canceled.
