Bad Teacher - Thursdays at 9:30PM ET/PT on CBS
Premieres Thursday, April 24, 2014 at 9:30PM ET/PT

Bad Teacher is a comedy based on a 2011 film of the same name that revolves around a former trophy wife who becomes a teacher in the hopes of meeting another wealthy man. Written and created by Hillary Winston (Community, Happy Endings), the show will center around Meredith Davis as she attempts to become somewhat of a better person - with a little help from her friends.

I am looking forward to it - Ari Graynor is hilarious and it looks like the rest of the cast is pretty good too.

'Bad Teacher' (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/rec.arts.tv/ykfUAVBK07A) stars Ari Graynor as a selfish (but not sociopathic, as
in the Cameron Diaz film) woman who lies to work in a school with
children of rich divorced dads.

If it is from the same writer and creator of Community, I cannot expect much.

"The real challenge of the show,” says Karen Valby, "will be to give it an actual surprising arc. In three episodes, the narrative is the same. Meredith is a gold-digger, but when push comes to shove she chooses her students’ welfare over her ambition to become someone’s new wife. That is a pat resolution in a movie but not enough to sustain a series.” PLUS: It’s a well-played ephemeral farce (http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/tv/showtracker/la-et-st-bad-teacher-review-20140424,0,4916268.story#axzz2zpiDLJ8N), it’s a pretty amusing sitcom (http://variety.com/2014/tv/reviews/tv-review-bad-teacher-1201160193/), it’s a flavorless, sanitized and timid retread (http://www.newsday.com/entertainment/tv/bad-teacher-review-series-gets-a-failing-grade-1.7793714), how CBS wooed Ari Graynor (http://www.eonline.com/news/532638/how-bad-teacher-wooed-ari-graynor-to-tv), and Graynor looks back (http://tvline.com/2014/04/24/ari-graynor-bad-teacher-meredith-davis-memories-from-the-set/) at her TV career.

Is it more of a 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' or '10 Things I Hate About You'?
