Teachers

This show is literally one of the funniest shows on television. My wife is a teacher and Teachers basically crushes it with the personalities she works with. Can not recommend it more highly. It's a fantastic show. It really picks up in Season 2 and just kills it with every successive episode. Check it out.

To everyone getting bent out shape about jokes on this show - "Lighten up, Francis!". It is a comedy TV show, not a documentary. Wife and I have both taught elementary and middle school and find the show funny. Think Always Sunny in Philly + scrubs in a school setting. It is edgy and clever without taking itself too seriously. Characters are exaggerations of flawed people but still manage to be likable and relatable. Gets funnier the longer you watch so don't give up if not blown away by the pilot.

This is a very funny show. You may know that One Million Moms has set an agenda against this show which is why you see all the one star reviews.

I am a teacher and I think this show is hysterical. Is it realistic, no. Does it offend me? No. I am smart enough to realize that this is a comedy, a farce Every character is an exaggeration and the actors do a great job.

I think this show is one of the ones that people either love or hate. I definitely love it! I catch myself laughing out loud all the time! It took me about 2 or 3 episodes to get hooked, but now I can't stop. People totally talk bad about the show, but I don't think they give a good chance to grow on them. But maybe it's not just sense of humor, which is totally fine too. The funniest characters are in my opinion the little blonde girl and her obsession with hot dad and her best friend. I really really hope that there is a season 2 because it's my new favorite current show on TV!

Anyways, my advice for everyone would be to give it a chance at least, because it's an easy show to dismiss, but definitely worth a spot on your DVR!

I'm a teacher and I think this is funny. There are so many things that they say that I'm sure many teachers actually feel. The "politics" behind public education are shameful, and these ladies highlight some of those ideas. Is it the most realistic show- not by a mile- but that's why it's funny. It makes me think of Kids in the Hall or Baroness von Sketch Show.
