The Grinder

The Grinder

Who's in it? Rob Lowe, Fred Savage, Mary Elizabeth Ellis, William Devane, Hana Hayes
Who created it? Jarrad Paul, Andrew Mogel, Nicholas Stoller, Jake Kasdan, Rob Lowe
What's it about? Lowe plays an adored actor who moves back to his hometown after his TV series — where he played a lawyer nicknamed “The Grinder” — comes to an end. But years of playing a lawyer on TV has given him the impression he can manage his family's law firm in real life.

Who's in it? Morris Chestnut, Jaina Lee Ortiz, Gabrielle Dennis, Anna Konkle, Maggie Elizabeth Jones
Who created it? Todd Harthan, Wyck Godfrey, Marty Bowen, Richard Shepard
What's it about? The endlessly optimistic Dr. Beaumont Rosewood (Chestnut) is a private pathologist for Miami's elite — he solves cases others can't, which is good because death abounds. And as is de rigueur for procedurals these days, the yin to his yang is a cynical female detective.

Note: In mid-May every year, the five television broadcast networks — NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and The CW — present their new shows and upcoming schedules to advertisers at events called "the upfronts." That's why you see an onslaught of new programming in May, as well as the cancellation of current shows. This post will be continually updated.
