Who's Teaching Whom? - Season 1

Who's Teaching Whom was the third in a string of successful Prime Time shows by master genre impressionists Scott Chernoff and Andy Goldblatt. This Punky Brewster homage delighted audiences with its eerily faithful recreation of a more innocent if also more retarded time in television. The production value seemed to get higher and higher with each episode until finally, Carly and the Professor jumped the shark while doing an impression of jumping a shark, moving to Hollywood in the fourth episode, then getting cancelled.

Head of the Class

Head of the Class is an American sitcom that ran from 1986 to 1991 on the ABC television network. The series follows a group of gifted students in the Individualized Honors Program at the fictional Monroe High School in Manhattan, and their history teacher Charlie Moore. The program was ostensibly a vehicle for Hesseman, best known for his role as radio DJ Dr. Johnny Fever in the sitcom WKRP in Cincinnati. Hesseman left Head of the Class in 1990 and was replaced by Billy Connolly as teacher Billy MacGregor for the final season. After the series ended, Connolly appeared in a short-lived spin-off titled Billy. The series was created and executive produced by Rich Eustis and Michael Elias. Rich Eustis had previously worked as a New York City substitute teacher while hoping to become an actor.

Abbott Elementary

In this workplace comedy, a group of dedicated, passionate teachers — and a slightly tone-deaf principal — are brought together in a Philadelphia public school where, despite the odds stacked against them, they are determined to help their students succeed in life. Though these incredible public servants may be outnumbered and underfunded, they love what they do — even if they don’t love the school district’s less-than-stellar attitude toward educating children.
