Teachers

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.

I guess I have a juvenile, black sense of humor because I think this show is hilarious. I have been both a high school and middle school teacher and currently am a middle school counselor. There are some spot on moments to this show. There is some exaggeration, but anyone's day to day work life in schools would be boring without editing out the meetings, paperwork, etc. I guess I have just had the fabulous luck of working with funny, sometimes inappropriate (never in front of kids) people. I feel bad for the people who work with the boring teachers who wrote these reviews.

As a teacher I did find this hilarious. Everyone has probably encountered a real staff member similar to each teacher (not the extremes, but they're there). It's a raunchy comedy for sure, so obviously not ok for kids. Are they role model teachers? Absolutely not, but it is funny and the teacher's lounge conversations crack me up.

This show is B.R.I.L.J.A.N.T.! Coming from a Dutch a teacher with a sense of humor ;-) To the other teachting critics : it is comedy: not a documentary. Everything is so exaggerated over the top and (politically) incorrect. I LOVE IT! I recognise every stereoype teacher in my team. Love the perfect cast, wonderful script and the music is so wel done. I love it. Not for the faint of heart . I love it .

It is a sketch comedy about Teachers dealing with real life. It is funny, edgy and has some pretty sly humor. It is not meant to be a vehicle about teaching kids, it is a takeoff. Some folks need to grow up a bit, and use some common sense. The ladies do an excellent job, and what I see here in Oak Park is very well represented in a satirical sense.
