TV show description:
This single-camera comedy is based on the feature film of the same name. It follows a hot, fearless, and unapologetic former trophy wife who masquerades as a teacher in order to find a new man after her wealthy husband leaves her penniless.
Dumped, divorced and broke (due to a bad pre-nuptial agreement), Meredith Davis (Ari Graynor) is inspired by her friend’s smart, awkward stepdaughter, Lily (Sara Rodier). Meredith devises the perfect 3-step plan: pose as a teacher at Lily’s ritzy middle school; meet and marry a rich single dad; and return to a lavish lifestyle.
Using a phony resume, quick thinking Meredith effortlessly charms Principal Carl Gaines (David Alan Grier) who is oblivious to her agenda.
The faculty includes gym teacher Joel Kotsky (Ryan Hansen). He’s her handsome former high school classmate who sees right through Meridith’s antics but is amused anyway.
Shy Irene (Sara Gilbert) is an introverted teacher who’s overly excited at the possibility of making a best friend in Meredith. Uptight Ginny Taylor-Clapp (Kristin Davis) is Faculty President and a busybody who resents Meredith and suspects she’s not who she seems to be.
Episode #13 — What’s Old Is New
Staff and students are all focused on standardized test day when Meredith and Principal Carl’s attentions are diverted by the arrival of their ex-spouses, making them question whether they want second chances with their former loves.
First aired: July 26, 2014.
What do you think? Do you like the Bad Teacher TV series? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
How dare they cancel it.
I loved this show so sad to see it’s canceled
LOVE THIS SHOW!! I WANT MORE!!
I think it should continue its serie, its funny 🙂
i think its a good funny show and cast is good too so should be continued
I was really getting into this show. I had all episodes on my DVR and watched all of them in 3 days. I thought it was a good plot and a very funny show! I hate it when every time I start getting into a new show it gets cancelled. You should at least let us finish all the episodes and have a good ending with Marideth getting married to Joel.
Please put the few episodes left on TV or at least online!
defiantly think there should be a another season, because its annoying to leaving an episode like that, almost like a midseason episode and I love the cast
I thought it was very funny with a great cast and I miss it. It should have been renewed.
Wow…..I think there is a problem, with the networks, to change the subject Manhattan Love Story also got cancelled by ABC in just four episodes. Network executives really need to kill the bugs crawling on their cancellation buttons. This is getting to be a problem, not giving shows a time to grow. OMG!!!!!
This is so true! It’s to the point where I don’t even want to start watching anything new!
the **** was funny…CBS..you cats are foul…
I loved this show! I actually liked it more than the movie. It was nice to have something different to watch for a change, loved the comedy of it. Very disappointed that it has been cancelled.
Why. What am I suppose to do with that cliffhanger of an ending. Is she staying with her ex or what about Joel? And uh, who doesn’t love Carl? Very disappointed that this was cancelled. Ugh.
I guess we have to watch the same shows, that keep getting renewed and renewed again and again. CBS is getting boring….zzzzzzzzzzz. Person of interest is designed to make us paranoid.
This show was terrible…. I couldn’t even sit through a whole episode. It was contrived and made women look terrible. Not to mention the lead actress was completely miscast…I wish they had cast someone that looked more like Cameron Diaz!!
Glad it got cancelled, sorry.
PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL the show! It had turned out to be a really funny show. It has a lot of potential!
I think the show should be renewed because its funny and entertaining and it makes you want to watch more it plus the ending was bad bring the show back
The first few episodes I saw it being cancelled, but recently it has become great, and I’m sad that it has been cancelled. The final episode is a terrible ending, bring it back for another season.
