Rob Lowe and Fred Savage have each starred on very successful TV shows that have run for many years. They’ve also each been on series that have been cancelled. How will The Grinder do in the ratings? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
The Grinder revolves around Hollywood star Dean Sanderson, Jr. (Rob Lowe) whose TV show was suddenly cancelled. He relocates to his old hometown and decides that, since he played a lawyer so successfully on television, practicing law at his family’s law firm can’t be all that different — much to the frustration of his hard-working attorney brother (Fred Savage). The series also stars William Devane, Mary Elizabeth Ellis, Natalie Morales, Hana Hayes, and Connor Kalopsis.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

Best comedy since Mary Tyler Moore Show!! We love it!!!
This show is awesome!
Sometimes it takes awhile for people to catch on,
It takes a certain east coast mentality. Loved it from the first show. Looking forward to season 2? Theres so many tv show to watch so those ratings should probably be updated.
Please cancel this show its retarded , anytime i see it on tv i wonder how stupid they think we are ? its not funny no story and over acting (or no acting ) on the same wave last man on earth , WTF is wrong with FOX ?
We love this show! The cast is amazing. The comedy and acting is impeccable. The writing gets better and better. Mom coming for a visit is full circle. We laugh out loud at every line and every look. PLease give a us another season!
Great show !
really well done

I laugh out loud while watching this show more than any other on TV right now. Great acting and writing. It keeps getting better. Different than anything out there. Please give it a chance.
I so the same thing! My brother and I love this show we are 28 & 35
Best sitcom since Seinfeld. Amazing characters and sharp writing lead to organic and unforced laughs. Someone needs to get behind and push the visibility higher, because it would be a big hit — the people I know who watch it all love it and are a desirable demographic. Shame if not given a second season.
I love The Grinder; it must be renewed… It is hilarious… I laugh out loud.
Love love love this show!!! A must renewal. The comedy is hilarious.
this show is genius…I would love to see it renewed. the characters are so 3 dimensional and the interaction of fred savage and rob lowe is phenomenal
