PopMatters Roger Holland
Funny but inconsequential. |

The New York Times Alessandra Stanley
For all the predictable one-liners, pratfalls and canned laughter clotting the pilot, there are some funny riffs down the line. |

Los Angeles Times Paul Brownfield
Nothing about the pilot of "Teachers" is particularly eye- or ear-opening. |

Newsday Verne Gay
"Teachers" isn't half-bad. |

New York Daily News David Hinckley
There's little talent, and even less charisma, evident in this gaggle of guys. |

USA Today Robert Bianco
The scene before the opening credits is awful enough all by itself to send you fleeing to any one of the other networks, all of which have something better to offer. |

Detroit Free Press Mike Duffy
A lame, uninspired faculty farce. |

Variety Brian Lowry
The U.S. version of "Teachers" has lost much of its grit and feels thuddingly conventional. |

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Rob Owen
Seriously lacking in laughs. |

San Francisco Chronicle Tim Goodman
Bad? It's a leech on your soul. Never have 22 minutes so felt like 44 minutes. |

Chicago Sun-Times Doug Elfman
"Teachers" is never not lame. |

Boston Globe Matthew Gilbert
You haven't seen ''Teachers" yet. But in a sense you have, on every other fifth-rate workplace sitcom ever made. |

Washington Post Tom Shales
This sitcom isn't wacky in an amusing way. It's wacky in a way that makes you want to see it whacked. |

Chicago Tribune Sid Smith
Easily the lamest new sitcom all season... [it] manages an entire half-hour without a single viable joke. |
