Paramount Plus has ordered the series Crutch, a comedy that is a spinoff of CBS comedy The Neighborhood. Tracy Morgan stars.
The show “will be set in the world of” The Neighborhood, Paramount Plus said. Morgan plays Frank “Crutch” Crutchfield, a Harlem widower whose empty-nest plans are dashed when his millennial son and free-spirited daughter move back home with him. Executive producer Cedric the Entertainer, who plays Calvin Butler in The Neighborhood, called Crutchfield “the close cousin” of Butler.
