Fox is known for its awful nightly line ups. And with their new show, 'Temptation Island', I have learned to tune into different networks. Few shows come around that I like such as 'Malcolm in the Middle' and of course, 'Boston Public.'
I've caught this show maybe four times but every time I've found that it has good topics and some funny writing. Also, some good, un-known actors. (Well, I haven't seen any of them before.) The show deals with some exciting and interesting story lines that deals with the different teachers and students of a typical high school. The writing is very funny. And when its meant to be serious, it accomplishes that too. The actors can handle comedy and drama which is exactly what I like to see. Of course, I can't remember who is who since all of the guys seem to look alike. Anyway, the cast as a whole works well together. The principal seems to have some good lines come out of him.
Finally, Fox has come out with a decent show. Now watch, they'll go and cancel it in hopes of something better coming along. My predictions could be wrong but that seems to be the trend with excellent programs.

Like THE PRACTICE, this is a well-made piece of drama dealing with the struggles in a typical high school in Boston. Created by David Kelley, who also made the hit series ALLY MCBEAL, this show is an absolute must-see for any lover of drama.
Probably the best thing about BOSTON PUBLIC is the thought-provoking dialogue, especially the speeches given by teacher Marla. Though it is not really life-like, the inter-personal dialogues are quite interesting. The direction is also stunning. The angle-movement of the the camera and the excellent acting makes this a feast to enjoy.
Though some will find the show boring initially, if you persevere, you will find that it is certainly worth it all. Give it time, and it will grow on you.
This is one show that must be watched by fan of ALLY MCBEAL and THE PRACTICE.

You'll hear a lot of people complain about Boston Public, calling it stupid or contrived or even sappy. But the sad fact is, it's main failing is that it addresses serious topics for an audience that would rather watch Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. People don't want socially relevant television ... they want South Park entertainment.
Well, it IS a great show. The character development is done with finely tuned precision, making one often forget that they are watching and not actually "there". The people on the show meld into their roles so well that it makes me shudder to think back to High School.
But one thing this show does NOT do is make me want to be a teacher.

Many people might find this is an offensive series especially toward teacher and condemn it as bad show. But what ever it is, I really like this show. It is so intense, emotional, alright acting, and the keep on changing cast make it not boring.
Yes, I agreed some stuff is offensive, but the series is too good to miss. Each week the faculty faces different problem (some of the stuff I highly doubted) but it is still fun to watch it.
What I really like is how the story of the teachers tried to deal with the everyday problem in school and put their personal life into it. (though it not happen in real life but still nice to see it).
Anyway, it was kind of sad to see it got cancel cause it got low rating, but at least it was still in its prime to me.
Recommendation: Yes, it is a pretty good relationship series.
Rating: 7.5/10 (Grade: B)

I would like to say this is a great show. I'm sorry I just started watching this TV series on TV1 (cable). It hits many real live situations that is now going on in the public school systems with our children and teachers. It really makes you think what the teacher actually go through with our children and vis versa in the low-class and middle class communities. It is really and truly an eye catcher. Its just sad that a show that has so much reality and truth in it has to end, but the re-runs are great. Hopefully they may continue a new season at a later time. I commend all the writers, producers and actors for a job very well done.

- QuizAlthough Chi McBride, Anthony Heald, and Loretta Devine appeared in every episode, McBride played Steven Harper more than the latter two. He reprised the role in 2005 on an episode of "Boston Legal". The law firm represented the plaintiff in a case against Steven Harper. The episode was written in a way that people who had never seen the previous show weren't missing any details.
- BlooperIn her introductory episode, the character of Kimberly Woods claims she is teaching at the high school as part of the "Teach for America" program. Boston is not currently a city where "Teach for America" operates. It is being considered as an addition, but it is not in the program at the time the episode aired.
