The Grinder 1.1

I really wanted to like this. But, despite the fact that the cast are terrific, I only laughed once in the half-hour. (It was at the scene in the bar, when the barman spoke and Dean had his epiphany.) I knew going in that the premise was lame, but I hoped the the show would rise above it. And it hasn’t. At least, not based on this first outing. 6/10
