Well, The Grinder rests, and the show’s been cancelled. It’s a real shame, but at least the writers seemed to have seen it coming and they wrapped things up nicely. This is the kind of show that I’ll probably rewatch every now and then on Netflix. Really good stuff, really fun ride. I hope Fred Savage does some more acting coming off of this.

I enjoyed the show but it never grew past the one-trick-pony concept of Rob’s character. An excellent 1st-season show that deserved the chance to grow its secondary characters over new seasons.

Unfortunate. IMO a lot of worse shows have much longer legs.

IMO it is really tough to find a new show to enjoy. Disappointing when one I like doesn’t make it.
