The Grinder

2015 | 6.7

Hollywood expertise meets small-town reality. It goes poorly.

The Grinder
6.7

Overview

When his acting career implodes, Dean Sanderson returns to his sleepy hometown convinced that eight seasons playing a courtroom hero on television has prepared him for actual legal practice. His brother Stewart, who quietly runs their family law firm with competence and patience, watches in bewilderment as Dean attempts to apply Hollywood's dramatic logic to real cases. The collision between Dean's inflated self-confidence and reality forms the comedic crux of this fish-out-of-water sitcom.
