    While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

    It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

    This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

    A very good show which for some reason has low ratings here.I am a big fan of shows like community and In betweeners (US version). This too has tons of cheesy comic lines.I have watched the original Diaz's version and feel that this one's 1000x times funnier than that.The show's leading lady Ari Graynor is too good.Especially the acting of Sara Gilbert (science teacher) and the kid Sara Rodier (lily) is beyond awesome.This show has great actors and super dialogues.The gym teacher(way better and fitter than Jason Segel) and the principal are awesome, especially the science exhibition episode was ultimate.All in all a great watch. Hilary Winston rock on.

    I don't know what it is about this show but it ticks all the right boxes. The cast is funny, I really don't like the villain, the guest characters don't over shadow anything yet they still add flavor and it really is enjoyable. Sure it's probably not going to get any "recognition" but who cares? I have fun watching it and it entertains me. Which when you boil it all down(surprise surprise) is exactly what entertainment is supposed to do, be entertaining. If you've watched the movie great, Cameron Diaz needs all the help she can get right now, if you haven't that's good too. Just accept this for what it is and stop trying to find hidden meaning in it. It's a comedy that makes me laugh. What more do you want?

    Meredith Davis (Ari Graynor) is getting divorced but she's left with nothing since she signed a prenup. When she's at the elementary school, she notices all the rich single dads. She decides to get close by being a teacher. She befriends principal Carl Gaines (David Alan Grier) and fakes a resume. She is the worst possible teacher. Irene (Sara Gilbert) is the meek pushover teacher. Ginny (Kristin Davis) is the mean queen bee. Joel (Ryan Hansen) is the nice gym teacher.I kind of feel the same way about this show as I did the movie. Bad teacher isn't bad enough. The only way this show would work is if the show is completely inappropriate. Of course that would rule out a network TV show. Therefore it's trapped in a neverland where she's mean but she always pulls back to do the right thing.I love Ari Graynor and her comedic sense. I first noticed her in 'Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist' as the drunk best friend. They really need to rethink the concept behind the show. For example, I think it would be better for Meredith to have a best friend or a sister companion. Quite frankly, I'm not sure that 'Bad Teacher' is a good concept for network TV. What's next? 'Bad Santa'? It's canceled 3 episodes in.

    Literally...one of the worst shows I have seen since that garbage the Crazy Ones. It was like getting a root canal with the lame attempts at humor designed for an adult audience downplayed for TV. Disney animated movies are more intelligent and better written. Rather watch re-runs of MASH then this junk. I really don't know where CBS is going with their new TV line up? This last episode was so contrived and ridiculous I feel sorry for not only those that watched it, but also to those that had to act out the script. It must have been ridiculous for them. Or they were saying, "getting paid". Or they are just bad at their jobs and expect us to say "it's all good". Frankly Cameron Diaz must be having a whole bottle of Chardonnay thinking..."wow, how did they take a good movie and crap out this show?"
