    Where's the rest?

    I'm watching The Grinder on Netflix and it all of a sudden ended. It didn't continue to the next episode or the next season. That was it. I couldn't believe that's all Netflix had.

    Then I came to IMDB to check it out, to see how many seasons there are to look forward to when Netflix loads the rest.

    And then it hit me, there's only a total of 22. I mean, can this be real? Why did they only make 22? Was Rob Lowe needed for bigger and better things?

    I am so disappoint.

    It was truly funny and I laughed my way through every episode. I know it was corny but it was a WELL DONE corny. I don't watch many sitcoms so I was pleasantly surprised when I found this.

    I'm so sad so what can I go on to watch now to give me a laugh?
