    A.P. Bio is just staggeringly unfunny, a clunky mess of a sitcom that has no idea how to innovate beyond its setup--nor any sense of what about its material is actually comedic.

    An abrasive sitcom that isn’t merely unfunny, it’s also deeply unpleasant.

The premise is a little played out but honestly, The cast saves this show and turns it into something worth watching. Howerton carries that same fire he has playing Dennis on It's Always Sunny and Oswalt plays a quality number two who's short appearances keep his character fresh and his interaction with Howerton's character fun to watch.… Full Review »

At least that’s my first impression. One has to suspend reality to buy the premise that a disgraced professor could get a gig as an Advanced placement Biology teacher when he has no credentials or experience doing so. One also has to stretch credibility to accept the ineptitude of the high school principal as portrayed. Finally, to get AP credit, the students will need to pass an AP test at the end of the term. Don’t think all the students would go along with getting absolutely no instruction to prepare for this test. Once one suspends all reality then there’s a bit of fun to be found in this strange setting. Whether that’s enough to sustain this farce for a season, well that remains to be seen. Right now this trip down the rabbit hole is worth a tenuous D- and may easily sink lower.

    Recent episodes do not have any tie to reality, so lowering my score. A guilty pleasure - just because it is a farce, but nothing more than that. Past time to flush this one! Hear a report a renewal has been issued. Scraping the bottom of the barrel are we?    … Full Review »
