Grand Crew is not just another comedy show; it is a show based on real-life experiences of the cast. The bond between the cast off-screen is well known, but it turns out that the storylines in the show are also based on their real-life experiences. Grasie Mercedes (Fay) and Aaron Jennings (Anthony), two of the main cast members of the show, revealed this in a recent interview.
“The idea of like Fay you know being married, and then single, and then not having sex for awhile, then dating, and couldn’t find anyone to just have sex with her is loosely based on my real life.”
