Anyone remember this show. Its probably in my top three live action shows of all time with the other two being Mystery Science Theatre 3000 and Married...with Children (though there are some other contenders such as Seinfeld.) I'm actually rewatching the entire series at the moment and am still really disappointed that it got moved to Fox's Friday Night Death Slot and then axed (though it did start going downhill after they made Harry Senate into some sort of Godlike character and then eventually he left the show).
One weird thing I noticed in rewatching it is that I think the last time the teacher Lauren Davis is seen is when she agrees to sleep with the Vice Principle Scott Guber (though not necessarily in a sexual way) after he had long sought after her. So did the Guber not like the goods once he got them, and kicked her to the curb? That's cold...

This show (much like all of David E. Kelley's shows) was AWESOME. I'm still waiting for it to come out on DVD. Goddamn FOX  |

I liked the first couple of season. The first season in particular I felt to be fairly realistic in it's depiction of teachers lives. The latter seasoned wained a bit.

I really liked this show. Chi McBride was the man in it.

I loved this show. What killed it, like several tv shows, is that they kept switching the time slot.

Great show, debuted at right around the same time as 9/11 didn't it?

Liked the show a lot, but it waned as Haper's daughter had a more prominent role and became more reality from the student's POV, rather than the teacher's.
Other than that, I approve.

I actually have all the shows downloaded onto my computer (well, not on my computer, more or less on an external hard drive. I haven't watched the show in awhile though.
