Hot-shot, dedicated-to-the-cause money manager Brody is on his way up the corporate ladder, step by step with the help of his boss, Remington Trust CEO Remington Stewart Mansfield, who considers Brody the son he never had. That relationship, however, is jeopardized after Brody hooks up with Jenny, a maintenance department head in the office building where Brody works. Despite Mansfield's warnings, Brody tries to turn his fling with Jenny into something more permanent, bringing together two very different groups of friends and "co-workers" -- the top floor meeting the ground floor.
Ground Floor — Season 1

What to Know

Critics Consensus

At times, the laugh track is distracting, but the talented cast in Ground Floor makes the most of the script and delivers first-rate jokes with an underlying vulnerability.

As someone who despairs for humanity watching most of the current crop of them [multi-cam sitcoms], basic competence with the form is enormously welcome. Ground Floor already has that, and quickly demonstrates the potential for much more. Go to Full Review Joyce Slaton Common Sense Media 11/21/2013

It's not such a bad thing to have a TV comedy that hearkens back to the time when everyone sat home watching sitcoms on Thursday nights. Go to Full Review Mark A. Perigard Boston Herald 11/18/2013

One thing that might improve this office comedy is a few pink slips - upstairs, downstairs and off-camera. Go to Full Review Matt Roush TV Guide 11/14/2013
