It got better AFTER it was cancelled.


I just started getting to know the characters. Other shows get cancelled because they simply suck and people say it didn't get a chance, but this one literally did not get a chance. It was cancelled faster than any other show I've started watching.

I know, right? It sucks that this show was cancelled so fast, it had a lot of potential. It could have lasted a lot more.

Agreed. I think the show needed better writing and probably would've been better off on another network. The acting wasn't bad IMO, and the cast seemed to have chemistry. It's a show that I think could definitely work, it just needs a bit of reworking and some tweaking. I certainly didn't find it a complete disaster, but I know the actors just wasn't given a lot to work with....

Do agree that the show would have worked on another network like fx since the show actually got better.

I did not like the show at first but I gave it a chance and by the final episode I was wanting to see where the show went, now I am pissssed.

The show actually got pretty dang good around episode 9-13. Go figure.

Teachers suck. They're mentally defective people who want to get back at all the people who never accepted them at school. Get a real job.

I have no idea why CBS cancelled this great series after airing only five episodes when its ratings weren't even dismal despite a lack of promotion.

I am just finding out about this! Damn *beep* *beep* DAMN! The show was great compared to most and I actually started to like this more then Big Bang which has gone WAY downhill. God I hate networks and people who don't watch good shows and watch crap!

I agree with everything you guys are saying: this show had a clunky start but really started coming together after the first few episodes.

You figure there are so many "stupid humor" shows out there doing well and I just don't understand why this show (silly yet funny -- "oh my god the class war has begun..") didn't catch on.

The new show Selfie (pilot avail on OnDemand) reminds me a bit of Bad Teacher but it's nowhere near as endearing...at least from the pilot. I'm sad to see Bad Teacher go.
