What people are saying
Updated nightlyPeople are overwhelmingly not buying this story about a teacher staging a revenge play to get back at his ex and the principal. While some find the premise fun and original, the jokes mostly land flat and the plot, especially the central love triangle, feels painfully thin. The cast tries hard, with Will Brill getting praise for his turn as Doug, and director Giselle Bonilla's work is singled out as a positive, but the characters themselves are widely disliked. It's a frustrating watch that starts slow and never really picks up speed.
