I was surprised how much I like this show, however, I know it should end sooner than later. We’ve gotten to the part of the series where the writers are running out of ideas and it shows. Weirdly enough the writing seemed to have gone downhill a bit after the switch to Peacock. There is clearly a new style of the show now.

The story is pretty simple. Glen Howards takes his Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia style of acting into the role of Jake Griffin, a disgraced Harvard philosophy professor who has one thing on his mind, revenge. Jack takes the job as an Ohio high school AP Bio teacher simply to pass the time for a year. He makes it clear to the students that he will not be teaching them bio and promises them all an A+ if they don’t tell anyone that he isn’t teaching them.

The big problem with the show is that Howards is so incredible on screen and the rest of the cast isn’t as impressive. Not bad acting, just, I don’t care. The kids in the class are pretty entertaining, but that’s mostly because they are paired with Howards in the scenes.

This is one of those shows where Jack comes in cocky and hating everything and everyone, but slowly he learned to open up, find friends and not hate the town he’s living in anymore. Kinda cliché, but it is a very satisfying show. Overall, this show should have a set number of seasons vs fighting to be renewed. Where its going, I don’t know, but I hope it’ll be a fun ride.
