Teachers (2016)	comment	Teachers is a Work Com that aired on TV Land from 2016â€“19. It focuses on a group of teachers at Fillmore Elementary, a school somewhere in the vicinity of Chicago: Caroline Watson (Kate Lambert), an anal retentive hopeless romantic who teaches second grade; Mary Louise Bennigan (Katie O Brien), a naive, deeply religious second grade teacher; AJ Feldman (Cate Freedman), a laid-back stoner who teaches third grade; Chelsea Snap (Katy Colloton), a vain, promiscuous fashionista who is obsessed with reality shows and teaches third grade; Cecilia Cannon (Caitlin Barlow), a free-spirited activist who becomes the art teacher in the second season; and Deb Adler (Kathryn Renee Thomas), a cynical fifth grade teacher. Their boss is the effeminate Principal Toby Pearson (Tim Bagley). A variety of supporting characters crop up at various points in the series: Mary Louise's love interest Hot Dad (Ryan Caltagirone), Deb's husband Damien (Haley Joel Osment), Pearson's kiss-up assistant Marty (Eugene Cordero), macho security chief Frank (Richard T. Jones), and no-nonsense secretary Mavis (Patricia Belcher).Nothing to do with the early 2000s British comedy-drama of the same name.

Teachers (2016) / int_175683fa	comment	Staging an Intervention: In "Dire Straights," the other teachers stage an intervention for Caroline (who has become obsessed with bingo). Feldman (who is trying to go off weed so she can date Officer Chuck) asks them to include her—she thinks some "guilt and shame" would help her. Then Caroline walks in and thinks the intervention's for Chelsea, who she calls a sex addict. After Caroline refuses help and storms out, the remaining teachers then shift gears and confess to Deb (who has recently quit smoking) that they have been secretly dosing her with nicotine.

Mrs. Adler was bullied by Lauren Zellnek in high school. Among other things, she put fetal pigs in her locker and forced her to take a shot from a Diva Cup. In "Bad Tweeter," Camille starts insulting people after Ms. Feldman coaxes her out of her shell.

Rain Owl tells the teachers that they are the worst group to do his program since the HR team from Kibbles 'n Bits.

In "Brokebitch Mountain," one of Feldman's students is reluctant to talk in class because of his stutter. Feldman tells him stutterers don't stutter when they sing and that he is always welcome to sing in her class. At the end of the episode, after she has quit teaching for a better paying job at a sub shop, the class goes to shop to try to convince her to come back. The stuttering student flawlessly sings the various budgetary steps she could take that would allow her to return to teaching.

Teachers (2016) / int_b707726f	comment	Hypocritical Humor: The pilot's very first scene shows Ms. Feldman and Ms. Snap on playground duty. In between calling out their students for misbehaving, they discuss Ms. Snap's one-night stand with a drug dealer. This also neatly serves as an Establishing Series Moment. Mrs. Lark, the district anti-bullying expert, tosses a number of sincere insults in Mrs. Adler's direction during the pilot. Mrs. Adler happily reciprocates and also verges into this trope—almost immediately after telling her students that calling someone a lesbian isn't an insult, she calls Mrs. Lark a lesbian in order to insult her. In "Dire Straights," Feldman kvetches about how the visiting drug enforcement officer is going to talk about how drugs make you lazy and unmotivated. She says this is total nonsense—right before flopping down on the couch and pouring her bag of cornchips directly onto her stomach so she can more easily reach them from her prone position.

She sanitizes it/makes it more accessible by calling a pot brownie a "courage brownie." In "Brokebitch Mountain," she calls drugs "concert enhancers." In "Stranger Danger," Ms. Bennigan calls breasts "Winnebagoes." Ms. Bennigan refers to menstruation as the "girl flu" in "Brokebitch Mountain."

He even dropped out of medical school so he could take better care of Blake. However, for the majority of the series, he isn't a house husband—he and Blake's mom are divorced, and she is by and large no longer in the picture.

In "Hot Date," Hot Dad never gets a chance to finish the story he starts to tell Ms. Bennigan on their date. A scene in "Third Wheel" shows him continuing to tell it to her on a later date. It never does get finished on-camera.
