    NBC knocked it out of the park with this one. 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.

    I like it. That's all that matters. Ok, it says I need 75 characters here. Got it.

    Glenn Howerton basically just plays his character from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia in a different setting without the rest of the Sunny cast.

    surprisingly funny. He plays a less sociopathic version of his IASP character. The comedy shines with its discordance between his apathy and the zealousness of his class of young overachievers. The critics got it wrong. definitely worth a watch. much better than many other new/existing shows.

    Really really funny. Offbeat and edgier than something I expected to find on network tv. Feels like more of an FX kind of show. First 3 episodes cracked me up.

    This show is really funny. I don't like reviewing things online but I didn't expect to like this as much as I did. It's good. Give it a watch

    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.

    At times, A.P. Bio struggles to build a bridge between what’s happening in Jack’s classroom and the rest of Whitlock, but the performances in the B-plots are so uniformly strong, they practically justify these digressions all on their own.

    Howerton makes the most of his central ribald rogue role while Oswalt seemingly was built to be a bumbler. Neither character is believably employed--if that really matters. Beyond that, A.P. Bio suffices as a teacher-student comedy.
