Rob Lowe is back to make us laugh our asses off!
Rob Lowe is back to grace our TV screens this fall on Fox Tuesdays and I for one could not be more thrilled! I truly missed him once his Parks and Rec days were over and he is "li-terally" (as his Parks and Rec character would say) one of my favorite actors.
Here he is back in action in a comedy role again, which is what he does best in my opinion. (Though he was amazing in Brothers and Sisters as well.) As the trailer shows he had found fame in Hollywood as a TV lawyer on a show called The Grinder but he returns home to his family after his stint in Hollywood has ended.
Fred Savage plays his brother who happens to be a real (albeit not very great) lawyer in the show and is not too thrilled that his famous brother played by Lowe thinks he can just become a real life lawyer since he had played one on TV. Dean (Lowe) figures he can slide by and just take a Bar exam assuming he can be a lawyer because he "picked a few things up" after portraying one on TV for eight seasons. We see that maybe Lowe has felt like he missed out on a few things in life and maybe his brother (Savage) did things right by having a family and as Lowe says in trailer it "makes him feel like he can have that too."
The Grinder looks like tons of fun with some sweet family moments mixed in. There also seem to be tons of guest spots as well from the trailer alone. I loved seeing Steve Little ( Eastbound and Down) as a possible assistant or agent maybe to Lowes' character, I can't deem which from the trailer. As well as Kumail Nanjiani who currently plays my favorite character on Silicon Valley.
I'm sure there will be tons of new one-liners and catchphrases from Lowe in The Grinder. Maybe stage-whisper will catch on and looking at ceilings in a meaningful way after you speak because you will be hell-a cool like Rob Lowe. (Just kidding)
My Bottom Line: The Grinder is a show I very much will look forward to among the many other great shows soon to appear. I personally think this looks hilarious and I can't imagine a world in which Lowe and Savage won't be able to carry a show. So please, please tune in come Fall so it won't potentially become a great show that Fox will cancel like they did with Surviving Jack.
Honorable Mention: Scream Queens Trailer (Ryan Murphys' new show that looks like Glee (minus singing hopefully) meets American Horror Story.)
Grandfathered Trailer (John Stamos, need I say more)
**These are also great trailers of other Fox shows coming in the Fall**
