Gerry Duncan (Gerry Dee) is an under-qualified, under-motivated, selfish, petty school teacher at the prestigious Xavier Academy. He wants his students to call him Mr. D but that's the nickname of the most popular teacher. Robert Cheeley (Jonathan Torrens) is the equally incompetent vice principal. Lisa Mason (Lauren Hammersley) is the sincere good teacher. Trudy Walsh (Bette MacDonald) is the bossy school secretary. Bobbi Galka (Naomi Snieckus) is the mannish gym teacher.

This is a workplace sitcom. Gerry Dee's teaching background and his comedic timing is well used. It doesn't hurt to have a whole cast of solid comedic actors. It's a great group. There is one missed opportunity. The funniest relationship is Gerry and this tiny little blonde girl. I don't remember her name but she's hilariously mean. It simply divine to have a little girl kick Gerry around. It would have been great for him to stick with the smaller kids. Eventually, they could grow older and for random reasons, they're stuck with him to their despair. The kids do have some sporadic comedic turns but they're the missed opportunity. In our days of shared universes, the show could have spun-off another show with the kids. I don't know how this show lasted eight seasons but I liked most of it. It's a solid sitcom.
