At 10PM tonight, one of TV Land’s strongest comedy series (and another quality comedy series about teachers getting by), Teachers, returns for season 2.
If you need a taste of what’s to come, here’s a trailer that will let you in on what the whole gang is up to.
TV Land’s Teachers Is Getting a Full Order for Season 3
TV Land is really happy with their original comedy series Teachers.
They’re so happy that they’re giving that rarely-seen-these-days full season order of 20 episodes for season 3 of the show.
This means, we guess, that there is enough room for two single camera cable sitcoms about teachers who are more than a little rough around the edges on television. Remember that, earlier this year, TruTV renewed Those Who Can’t for season 3 too.
TV Land’s Teachers is now in its second season and start to get some traction.
The group behind the show The Katydids are a veteran comedy/sketch group that you can see live this Saturday night at iO West performing along side long running iO improv team, People of Earth.
Tickets are $10 and you can (and should) get them here.
The rest of our listings for comedy shows, events, open mics, and maps can be found at www.thecomedybureau.com.
TV Land will be serving up a brand new hour block of comedy tonight that includes the newest member of late night, Throwing Shade, and season 2 of their dark comedy Teachers.
Specifically, Teachers will be at 10PM and Throwing Shade at 10:30PM just in case you decide to watch it live on air rather than find it streaming somewhere later.
If all goes well, TV Land might have found new ground to stand on with the ever increasing field of cable TV comedy.

ABC seems pretty happy with their comedy slate.
Save for The Muppets, Dr. Ken, Galavant, and Last Man Standing, ABC has announced the renewal of the rest entire comedy line-up today. That includes Modern Family for its 8th season, The Middle, also for its 8th season, Fresh Off the Boat for its 3rd season, Black-ish, also for its 3rd season, and The Goldbergs for its 4th season.
Considering how quick the ax is brought down on series at other networks these days, this is a pretty big milestone for the broadcast network.
Also, TV Land’s freshman series Teachers will live to see a sophomore season.
Maybe this is a sign of the tides of cancelling new comedy series is changing? We certainly hope so.

Once the land of sitcom reruns, TV Land is now pushing forward into more original series. This week, they’ve picked up two new series, which are Teachers, executively produced by Alison Brie, and Impastor. They both also single camera comedies, a sharp contrast to what used to constitute a large portion of their programming.
In addition to TruTV rebranding as a more comedic channel, the TV comedy landscape seems to get wider and wider every day.
