‘English Teacher’ Renewed for Second Season on FX

Such a piece of shit show.

Yes! It was so good and I’d hate to see it cancelled because of some desperate attempts at smearing the writer.

I like aspects of the show, like the female best friend. His grossly unattractive ex-bf needs to be written out early in season 2. I can’t take seeing his shirtless body again.

Nice plaid shirt !

This makes me happy. Easily one of the best and most realistic gay relationships portrayed on tv. They're even allowed to have sex, unlike most other gay characters.

R3 That's what makes it realistic though. They're equally attractive. Harry (his alternative love interest) is way out of his league.

R6 I disagree. I’d say the lead and the new teacher are closer to being in the same league. The lead has a great body. The boyfriend does not at all.

R2 He literally ADMITTED to it through his dumbass lawyer. He just claimed it was consensual like going down on your costar on set while the camera is rolling is a normal thing.

So, now it's on FX? I thought it was on HULU??? I don't have HULU.

Of course DL is defending rape now. How the geriatrics here fancy themselves as better and more civilized than MAGA will never not be funny to me.

Damn, I am actually surprised the network renewed it given the sexual assault history. Guess we really are in Trump's America lol.

R11 Exactly. The fucking morons that think shit like this are just isolated incidents that don't affect them frustrate me. If studios feel emboldened enough to openly support rapists, they're certainly brave enough to shun gay actors and erase gay content. Disney is doing that already.

Remember when FX dropped Louis CK, their biggest award magnet and most profitable cash cow, for much lesser allegations? Good times.

Three new episodes out September 25th on FX, with the remaining seven available the next day on streaming.

Congrats on getting the show cancelled, everyone who got offended he gave that one guy a freebie that one time. We lost an incredibly funny gay-themed show over literally nothing.

I’m sorry but who is the rapist?

Good to see fugly gay men represented on TV

Nothing about that show rang true to me as a teacher in Texas. It's a clever concept, though.

"Congrats on getting the show cancelled, everyone who got offended he gave that one guy a freebie that one time. We lost an incredibly funny gay-themed show over literally nothing." I thought you just said it was renewed??!?

He should be in jail. He’s a psychopath.

r18 Second season will obviously be its last, seeing how FX is dumping it over the course of two days. First season came out weekly to great critical and audience acclaim, so this can only mean it's been cancelled.

I do think there’s such a thing as #MeToo overreach but this is not such a case. No one who just up and decides to perform an unsimulated sex act on an actor *while filming a scene* should be running a show.

This show is so realistic and topically correct.

Another gay minstrel show.

I watched several of the episodes. There were some funny scenes, but overall, I prefer my humor to be a bit more rooted in real situations - perhaps exaggerated, but still recognizable. If part of the point of the series was to show the main character as lacking in self-awareness, thus bringing bad situations upon himself, it succeeded. But a main character has to show a hint of vulnerability sometime, or we start to lose interest.. As someone in the teaching profession myself, I can't imagine any sort of situation where someone brings his sex life up at every possible public moment.
