Rob Lowe Tweeted the sad news that his show The Grinder will not be back for a second season on Fox. He said, “#TheGrinder was not renewed by @FOXTV It was unapologetically original, smart, funny and had a murder’s row of talent. #GrinderRests.” But he followed it up with a great Tweet, “And there is still Grindr. So there’s that. #NotAllBadNews.”
It is that type of humor that will make me miss this show even more. It had a slow start, but it picked up and by the end of the season it was brilliant.
The only reason why I can assume people didn’t watch it is because it was on the wrong network. It would’ve done better on FX or USA. Maybe someone else will pick it. Especially if it gets and Emmy nom or two.
UPDATE: Fox also cancelled Grandfathered. I am not surprised because the show never found its identity. I wanted to like it, but I just never did. I will miss having John Stamos on TV every week, but this was just not the best project for Josh Peck and him.
Oh and the animated Bordertown and Cooper Barrett Guide to Surviving Life were cancelled, but don’t worry no one else heard of them either.
