Tracy Morgan's 'Crutch' Spinoff Premieres on Paramount+ Next Month

In just a few weeks, on November 3rd, Paramount+ will premiere a new docuseries titled 'Crutch' starring comedian Tracy Morgan. The show centers on Francois "Frank" Crutchfield, a brash yet beloved Harlem shop owner who goes by the nickname "Crutch."

Crutch's world is turned upside down when his highbrow son and free-spirited daughter move back into the family home, along with their grandkids. The official trailer shows Crutch introducing his grandchildren to the realities of living in New York City, including his advice to never pick up a dollar bill on the subway, as "that's how they caught Martha Stewart."

In addition to the new 'Crutch' series, Tracy Morgan will also guest star as his character on a special crossover episode of the CBS sitcom 'The Neighborhood' airing the same night. In this episode, Calvin reaches out to his cousin Crutch to get Malcolm a deal on new flooring, but Crutch insists on coming to LA to oversee the work himself, much to the annoyance of Tina.

'Crutch' is created by Owen Smith and executive produced by Cedric The Entertainer, Eric C. Rhone, Aaron Kaplan, Wendi Trilling, Mike Mariano, and Tracy Morgan. The series is produced by CBS Studios and will be distributed globally by Paramount.
