Grady is an American sitcom and a spin-off of Sanford and Son that aired on NBC from December 4, 1975, to March 11, 1976. Whitman Mayo reprises his role as Fred Sanford's widower friend Grady Wilson, who leaves Watts to move in with his daughter and her family in Westwood. Executive producer Norman Lear served as a consultant to the show.
The series never found a solid audience, and was canceled after ten episodes. Whitman Mayo returned to Sanford and Son and would go on to star in the spinoff series Sanford Arms.
Grady was Bud Yorkin's first series after he ended his partnership with Norman Lear and Tandem Productions. Five months, after the cancelation of the series, Haywood Nelson would later star in What's Happening!!, from the same production company, which proved to be more successful.
