So this is kind of a random tv review because it is a show that has been cancelled already, and I didn't watch it to begin with because I had a feeling it would get cancelled... But they have been airing the remaining episodes and I've been watching and enjoying it. It's a good idea, and even if you see the movie Bad Teacher these characters are all very television-friendly... But the movie didn't get the best ideas to begin with and while I think it was successful, I don't think it was a huge hit and it didn't get great reviews. Plus it has an ensemble cast filled with famous people like Ari Graynor, Kristin Davis and David Allen Grier... And while that can be a good thing because they're all good actors, it's also more expensive to produce, so those shows tend to get cancelled a lot... But anyway back to the review.
It isn't the best show in the world, but it is really entertaining and it's the type of show that I like that doesn't always do that well. I really like shows about teachers, but there aren't really any on today and a lot of them tend to get cancelled too. Remember Teachers that was on NBC a longggg time ago? I really liked that show but it didn't last very long at all. Anyway there are lots of moments in this show that make me laugh, some out loud mostly to myself. Usually if a show doesn't make me laugh within the first 5 minutes I won't watch it, and this did actually make me laugh. Ari Graynor is really funny, although I do think she seems way nicer and less of a bad person than Cameron Diaz was in the role. It also has a lot of funny and interesting characters like The bad teacher, the goody good teacher, the principle, the student teacher and the gym teacher are all super funny. I liked the chemistry between Meredith, the bad teacher and the hot gym teacher who is played by the guy on Burning Love that played Blaze. I know that isn't super helpful... But it's a thing lol.
Overall I think this is a show worth watching. I usually don't like getting attached to shows that I think are going to get cancelled or that have been cancelled already, but this is good enough to actually check out. It's entertaining and worth a watch. I think they have it on Saturday a Nights right now, so nothing else is even on and this is just a fun little thingy to watch for a little bit. Not the greatest show ever, but it's not bad. The pilot was a little weird.
There are lots of flaws I notice within tv shows because I know a little bit about screenwriting and I can pretty much tell you if the show will be cancelled or not from that alone. This was not a huge offender of any of those rules the way that Trophy a wife and The Carrie Diaries were, so I was slightly surprised it wasn't picked up. I definitely recommend checking it out if you're not doing anything on Saturdays it whatever. I'm sure you'll find it funny.
Byeeeee!
