Fox picks up new shows ‘The Grinder’ and ‘Rosewood’

Fox has announced two new series, “The Grinder” and “Rosewood,” marking its first pickups for the fall season.

“The Grinder” stars Rob Lowe as beloved TV lawyer Dean Sanderson (a.k.a. “The Grinder”) and Fred Savage as his brother, Stewart. When Sanderson’s long-running hit series comes to an end, he finds himself at a crossroads in life and decides to move back to his small hometown, thinking he has the experience to take over his family’s law firm.

Co-starring in the comedy are Mary Elizabeth Ellis, William Devane and Hana Hayes.

“Rosewood” is centered on the brilliant Dr. Beaumont Rosewood Jr. (Morris Chestnut), the top private pathologist in Miami. As owner of one of the most sophisticated, state-of-the-art independent labs in the country, he finds the secrets in bodies that others usually miss. Despite being constantly surrounded by death, Rosewood is obsessed with life and savors every moment. His eternal optimism will frustrate the cynical female detective he often works with, but she can’t argue with the results that his unique perspective provides.

The drama co-stars Jaina Lee Ortiz, Gabrielle Dennis, Anna Konkle and Maggie Elizabeth Jones.

Both series are produced by 20th Century Fox Television
