The Spirit of Toledo: A.P. Bio: "Ride the Ram"/"Kinda Sorta" Season Finale



A.P Bio's last (?) 2 episodes finally see it take the ram by the horns

"Ride the Ram" 

It's school spirit week, and as the school is battling its rival in the annual Ram Championship, Whitlock tries to do what it can to win. Even though the blood drive was ruined, Helen saved the day by giving enough blood to win. But when it came to the principal challenge, Ralph couldn't do it due to his procedure.
 
Jack comes in to help Ralph after he had ruined their time at his birthday dinner the other night. Jack gets on the mechanical ram, and instead of going up against the rival principal, he's going up against Heather's former love crush. After Heather's move on Chad, he gets thrown off, and Jack wins it for the school and Ralph's friendship.

"Ride the Ram" was a delightful and hilarious episode. The Ralph and Jack character relationship is so good in this episode that it gives Jack a rethinking of their friendship that, at times, he denies it. Paula Pell does it once again with another standout supporting performance. Overall, I give this episode an 8.5/10.

A.P. Bio" Kinda Sorta (TV Episode 2019) - IMDb

"Kinda Sorta"

In the season two finale, Jack has a one-shot out of Toledo if he helps Sarika get into Harvard. But he and the class must help Sarika make a good impression by changing her outlook and not being so rude-looking. After training, Jack and Sarika meet with the advisor of Harvard, who happens to be someone Jack dated. Yikes!

Jack tries his best not to get sexual with the advisor, but after seeing Lynette with someone else at the bar that night, he is considering going for it. But that all ended when he stopped it and ran to see Lynette, telling her about this dream he had with her and their four fat Toledo kids. The two finally become exclusive as boyfriend and girlfriend.

Jack learned that Sarika had snuck her paper into the advisor's bag and that her aunt was impressed with his book. Jack's got an appointment to see her, but will he go? Also, Jack learns from Ralph that he has a new student...Helen! Helen didn't graduate high school. Oh boy!

"Kinda Sorta" While it felt like two parts of the series finale and season finale, I'm glad that the series was saved and moved to the Peacock Streaming Service. I love this episode! This episode was such a good development for the character of Jack to realize that staying in Toledo isn't all that bad with someone that he has feelings for in Lynette. Also, I can't get enough of the Jack and class dynamic, and helping Sarika was just the icing on the cake. I can't wait to see what Season Three has in store. I hope Elizabeth Alderfer, who played Lynette, returns because she was so good in season two.

Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

You can catch A.P. Bio on NBC.com, the NBC app, and the Peacock Streaming Service.

Powers to Believe: A.P.: Bio: "Handcuffed"/"Spectacle"



Watch A.P. Bio Episode: Handcuffed - NBC.com

"Handcuffed" 

When Jack needs a new cell phone, he asked Mary to be on her plan; but in return must help her get rid of her boyfriend. Trying to give the bad news to her boyfriend, he doesn't accept and his handcuffed to Jack's mother's stairlift. Jack plays into Mary until it was too late and she goes back to him. That is until Jack stops her and tells her that she can do a lot better than with that guy; in return, the two will share a phone plan and get out of being handcuffed as well.

Principal Ralph can't take the stress of informing his staff of the cuts and moves. But that's when Anthony came in to interview Ralph for the school paper; Anthony helps give the bad news and is given the power to tell everyone from the gym coach to janitor about the changes. Even trying to get out of a B- grade but Helen took care of that after noticing he dipping the chip into way too much dip.

"Handcuffed" was a very good episode. I enjoyed a lot from Mary and Jack's friendship story to Anthony's reign of power. But the one that really had me laughing was Paula Pell's performance as Helen stealing scenes and that dipping the chip into way too much dip was so funny. Overall, I give this episode an 8.5/10.


Watch A.P. Bio Episode: Spectacle - NBC.com

"Spectacle" 

There's a talent show but will Jack and his class win it?

As the school talent show is about to begin, Jack thinks he can win it with his class and after searching for some talent from his class he had found it. It was a play and while at first, it was a good idea; Jack turned it and went a whole other direction by using what everyone likes in entertainment from dub music to dancing. At first, it wasn't going so well until Jack went back to the original idea and won the show.

Meanwhile, Mary and Stef try to help Michelle out with her bell concert for the talent show but instead Michelle does it all on her own. While Helen and Ralph come up with who will be the new M.C. the talent show; spoiler alert it's them!

"Spectacle" was so good with the performances from Paula Pell and Patton Oswalt with their chemistry just put to a whole new level. When watching these two I don't think they're doing it on scripted but improvising. I didn't really like the whole bell concert storyline in this episode because it just left too predictable. While Jack and the classmate's story was good on average but had a nice ending to it. Overall, I give this episode an 8/10.

You can catch A.P. Bio available on NBC.com, NBC app, and Peacock streaming service.

A.P. Bio Renewed for Season 3; Set for NBCUniversal Streaming Service



Just when you thought school was out for real, think again! A.P. Bio has been brought back from the dead for renewal for season three, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter.

But that's not all, the third season will be showing on the upcoming NBCUniversal streaming service.

The series showrunner and creator Mike O'Brien said in a statement, "I'm so overwhelmed by the outpouring of support from the fans. The cast and I are thrilled that we get to make more, and I'm excited to work with the NBCU Streaming platform."

A.P. Bio stars Glenn Howerton as the embittered college professor Jack Griffin, who was forced to teach high school biology after losing out on his dream job. Patton Oswalt co-stars as the school principal Ralph Durbin, with Lyric Lewis, Mary Sohn and Jean Villepique playing Jack's fellow teachers.

Season two's run this spring had an average of 1.9 million total viewers and just under 0.5 in the demo rating, which was a 30 percent drop from its freshman run. Ranking second to last in the demo beating out Abby's, which also got canceled.

The revived comedy has become the first original scripted comedy set to air on the NBCUniversal's streaming service, which is slated to launch next year with a library of hits like The Office and more, much, much more.

I'm pretty excited about the news. Just before the show was waiting on its fate, I really thought that they should not only renew it but adding it to their streaming service. And the best part of the renewal is we get to see more Paula Pell.

Redemption: A.P. Bio "Dr. Whoopise"

Image result for A.P. Bio dr whoopsie




As Jack tries to redeem himself after an accident that went viral. Also, will Helen and the teacher find out who the sugar daddy is? Here's a recap!

When Jack does a test tape for TedTalk at the school; he doesn't actually make a home run out of it; as he becomes a viral video hit when he falls off the stage with an injury of smashing butt. The next day comes and Jack tries to find a way to redeem himself; to be a hero instead of a joke. The students come up with a scenario of that of Baby Jessica and use Victor as Baby Jessica in a manhole. But when the plan goes sideways, Jack and the students try to find Victor.

As the students try to find Victor they somehow ran into what they call the "Rat King" and ran back out of the manhole. Jack finds Victor, who's been going through somethings and tells Jack that his parents are getting a divorce. As things patch things up, Jack and Victor get out of the manhole but as the ambulance and fire department come Jack falls back and lands on his back.

Helen and the teachers are on the lookout as the sugar daddy is back littering at the school of candy wrappers. The teachers didn't come close but Helen sure did as she spots Ralph dropping a candy wrapper and walking away. She confronts him and gets him to spill the beans and runs out to face the cops that turn out to be the ambulance and fire department who came for Jack's rescue.

Jack gets what is his redemption when Victor and Heather speak out on Jack's behalf with the TV reporter; becomes happy and replays the YouTube clip again and again.

"Dr. Whoopise" was a fine episode that had its good moments and some weird ones. The Jack story was good and the scenes with him and Victor were heartwarming and even funny at times. But the one that one me over was Helen finding out that Ralph was the sugar daddy; confronts him in one of the best scenes of the season so far. I didn't quite like the three teachers hunting down like it was somewhat of a wacky Law & Order spinoff even as they question Dale. Yikes. Overall, I give this episode a 7.5/10.

The Powers That Be: A. P. Bio "Sweet Low Road"

Image result for A.P. Bio "Sweet Low Road"

When facing budget cuts, will Whitlock keep not only the jazz club but also Jack too? Here's a recap!

When Ralph is facing budget cuts to help make the superintendent's needs for another project. It gets not only Jack worried; but also the students. Jack sees that Ralph and Helen try to use being nice by sending the superintendent a goodie basket, but that failed straight to the garbage. Also to keep Jack, Ralph decides to make Jack Helen's assistant, but that went south for Jack really quickly. While Jack tries to come up with a plan, his students try their way to help not only save his job but also save the jazz club too. 

As Jack, Stef, Mary, and Michelle go on a stakeout to spy on the superintendent to get dirt and while playing pizza slap; they finally got her on a photo kissing someone else. Trying to get Ralph to use it, he doesn't and destroys it. As Jack watches Ralph make a fool of the school, he goes back and gets the shredded photo pieces and put them back together; to show the superintendent what will happen if she doesn't stop the cuts at the school and she backs away. But Jack makes everyone from Ralph, the teachers, and his students think that they really helped save the school from budget cuts.

"Sweet Low Road" was a fine episode that got better at the end. While the story was okay; the episode really shined in the performances. From the cast from Paula Pell's scenes with Glenn Howerton; the students figuring out what to do to save Jazz and made a somewhat of a PSA jazz music video. And even the scenes with Jack and the teachers playing pizza slap were too good to pass on. And the episode ended quite good and heartwarming; for a character like Jack, that likes to take the glory most of the time, doesn't stick it in the other character's faces that he was the one that saved the school. Overall, I give this episode an 8/10.

Re-Bully: A.P. Bio "Personal Everest"

Image result for ap bio personal everest



When the school gets a motivation speaker, it so happens to be a former high school bully of Jack's. Can Jack stop him from spreading lies or will he get revenge on him? Here's a recap!

When Jack saw that all the students and staff are at the gym and listening to a motivation speaker; it so happens to be a former high school mate of Jack's that was a bully. Jack tries to find a way to find the truth that his former classmate didn't climb the highest mountains and lost his toe. But it gets shut down and even worst gets to motivate the staff at the high school. 

But when Jack's class not only learned of this but sees it; they spring into action that they stool the bully's toe. Soon after, Jack and the class headed back to the gym for another motivational talk but instead bullied him out of the school.

Meanwhile, Stef gets Mary and Michelle motivated by taking what is theirs. With Mary, she always apologizes but this time she doesn't and gets away with it. While, Michelle, who gets pushed around one too many times, fights back that even pushes a student with a broken leg down.

And Ralph tries to give Helen a raise, but she hasn't taken one for years. He tries to reason with her but instead, she doesn't. But have no fear as Ralph pulls off a sneaky way by telling Helen that she won a prize of three large rolling suitcases that could be hers if she accepts her raise; in which she does.

"Personal Everest" was a very good episode from start to finish. It had some really good moments from Jack meeting with the old schoolmate in the bathroom, or Jack's students watching him get bullied in front of them. Hell, watching Michelle rule the school hallways really had me laughing out of my seat. But the one that really got me was the students districting Jack's bully by stealing his toe and given it to Jack to use it. Also, that hug at the end when Jack's bully ran off was a touching moment too.

This episode really made me think of how different his show is and how it's like the fun version of Magic School Bus in a way. Anyway, I thought the episode had very good character development and the performances from the ensemble cast were very good too. Overall, I give it an 8.5/10.

Through the Lens: A.P. Bio "Melvin"

Image result for A.P. Bio Melvin

While Jack deals with an older neighbor; Ralph must try to find a way to save money during school photo day. Here's a recap!

When Jack had enough of his elderly neighbor, Melvin (played by Christopher Llyod). After dealing with Melvin's shenanigans that includes during a so-called "hangout" with Lynette. He teams up with Lynette and his students to kidnap his dog and leave him a ransom note.

But after a day or two, as Jack drops off Melvin's dog, he and Lynette get stopped when they see police and ambulance at Melvin's place and learn that Melvin had died. It wasn't a broken heart but died choking on a piece of chicken. But Melvin leaves a letter to Jack thanking him for one hell of a great time back and forth each other or tormenting.

Meanwhile, Ralph learned that their photographer had raised his price to do the school photos. So Ralph decides to do the photos himself, but within two days he only took four photos of one student and three teachers. After realizing the situation, Ralph picked up the pace and took every single photo of the students, even though most of them probably won't turn up good at all.

As for Melvin's dog, Jack decided to give the dog to Dale, the janitor. Dale thinks that the dog was his mop that another janitor put in the magic dumpster. As Dale takes close to the dog, at the end of the episode he puts in a mannequin of a boy and soon the dumpster lights up.

I couldn't get enough of "Melvin" as it probably has to rank up there in the top three episodes of the season so far. As much as I couldn't get enough of Jack and Lynette chemistry. I really enjoyed the group of them and the students working together. Not to mention the chemistry between Howerton and Christopher Lylod was amazingly hilarious.

And the scenes with Ralph, Helen, and the teachers were probably one of the best moments of the season so far. And poor Dave, right? The writing was brilliant and the performances were amazingly great! Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

Mystery Games: A.P. Bio "J'accuse"

Image result for AP Bio "J'accuse"

Could a game of murder mystery lead to a romance? Here's a recap!


When Jack gets invited to a group murder mystery party with all the faculty; he doesn't want to go but when learning Lynette was going and a record-setting on finding the murderer, Jack was all in. As everyone had to dress like someone from the school; Jack tries his best to find the murderer and get out, but after failing many times, Lynette confronts him and she's the murderer. 

The two devices a plan to place murder stickers on everyone and leave with the prize, a cookie cake. But their victory turned into a night at the football field; the two shared a kiss and it ended with Jack telling Lynette that he doesn't want to be in Toledo for long, but she does.

Meanwhile, after getting the biology practice test taken away; Sarika gets her classmates to help break in and get that exam sheets from Jack's desk. But as Sarika tries to break in, the rest are having so much fun, even breaking into the teacher's lounge. As Sarika gets the test; they try to get her to have some fun and after a moment of deep thoughts and all they started to have fun and even get chased by the security guard.  But not before stopping and seeing Jack and Lynette kiss in the football field. 

"J'accuse" is probably one of my favorite episodes of the season so far. I just loved the chemistry between Glenn Howerton and Elizabeth Alderfer's characters. I feel like I have to be all in with these characters and hope they would be an item, even though Jack tells Lynette that he doesn't want to stay in Toledo for long. 

Even Jack's students from Sarika, Victor, Heather and more are just hilarious. They carry the show will brilliant growth and comedic moments. Aparna Brielle shined in this episode;  her character had a big character growth by breaking away from the too good of a student to have fun to having fun with her classmates. 

Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

Love and Looks: A.P. Bio "Toledo's Top 100"

Image result for A.P. Bio "Toledo's Top 100"



Who made it as Toledo, Ohio's top 100 sexiest male bachelor's list?  Here's a recap!

When Jack announced to the staff that his name is on a list of top 100 sexiest male bachelors in Toledo, Ohio; he's not the only one as well as Ralph's name is on the list. After everyone is excited for Ralph, Jack learns that Ralph made it to the top 10 sitting at #8; while Jack is at in the top 90. Jack not only gets some help from the class but gets Ralph to speak up about him at the cover shoot that ended both of them off the list. Jack, feeling bad, helps gets Ralph's name back on the list and exchange to be at the party as a bartender.

Meanwhile, Victor and another classmate try to ask a girl out. But it's Victor's girl-crush that got really comes into questions when he goes telling Stef, the teacher, about how he feels about her and gives her a gift, a purse. Being shocked by the gift and trying to keeps it; she later gives it back to Victor and the two fist pump as friends.

"Toledo's Top 100" was hilarious but also cringle worthy of an episode. The Jack and Ralph storyline was as good as it could be in this episode; with such memorable moments coming from Helen and Heather. But it's Victor and Stef that really had me laughing but in a weird and worried way. Overall, I give this episode an 8/10.

Everything in 30: A.P. Bio "Wednesday Morning, 8 AM"

Image result for ap bio wednesday morning 8 am

Sometimes its that last 30 minutes before school starts that's hectic. Here's a recap!

"Wednesday Morning, 8 AM" was one of the series brilliant episodes from the beginning to the end. Within the 30 minutes before classes start things become really hectic from Ralph getting the announcements correct to the janitor trying to find his peace but loses it when he has to battle bad pumping and even Jack getting his chair back from Lynette, who had taken it.

Each story from the episode was so brilliantly hilarious. I couldn't get enough of Ralph and Helen even more with Helen's scenes that were just hilarious even when the band members came in and she announced them as the hornies.

But it was the story between Jack and Lynette that really stole the episode to moments of great chemistry between Elizabeth Alderfer and Glenn Howerton. The two characters played off to one another great as he tries to get his chair and she plays him off with mind-blowing philosophy. After making his brilliant plan, she does return his chair but that was after he took something priceless of her off her desk. Which made an awkward moment for Jack.

I loved the episode. It was so beautifully written and had so much great character development. It's really an episode that you should put it on your list to watch. Overall, I give this episode a 9.5/10.

"You Get What You Get" A.P. Bio "Nuns"

Image result for Ap Bio Nun

Could Jack get away of taking back of what is his even though it belongs to the church? Here's a recap!

After becoming the new Driver's Ed instructor, Jack sees an opportunity to take what belongs to him when he learns that before his mother died donated money to the church for a statue. Trying to get his class to help him pull it off, none wanted to do it. That was until he gets three of them for the driver's class and gets Victor to drive to the church.

Anthony, who goes to this church, doesn't want to help but after a little convincing he does. But the next day, Ralph and Helen informed Jack about the church called about their statue was stolen and a witness saw the school Driver's ed car. Thinking that they would send a priest to interview Jack's students turned out to be nuns.  A freakout Jack worries and gets his students to lie at their best, but these nuns can see right through them, but without telling them anything.

Jack learns that Anthony left his retainer at the church and decides to get the students to return the statue while he talks with the nuns. In the process, Jack gets interrogated by the nuns and comes clean that he could have been a better son to his mother. But before confessing, the nuns get a call that their statue had returned.

"Nun" was a good episode that probably would bring back so memories of a childhood encounter with nuns. Even though the chemistry between Jack, Victor, Heather, and Anthony is amazing and they play one another perfectly in the episode. The chemistry between Ralph and Helen is unbelievable; even if they were in the episode for a short time. The episode had good writing and good character development. Overall, I give this episode an 8/10.

NBC Renews A.P. Bio & Loads Up on New Comedies

Image result for NBC AP Bio



Well, it looks like we're in for a second helping of Mr. Griffin's non-learning learning of biology.

It was announced Tuesday by TVLine that NBC has renewed A.P. Bio for a second season. The Howerton (It's Always Sunny i Philadelphia) stars as sweater-loving philosoph professor Jacck Griffin, who's reduced to teaching a high school biology after losing out on his dream job. It also co-stars Patton Oswalt as weak-willed principal Ralph Durbib, along with Lric Lewis Mary Sohn and Jean Villepique as Jack's fellow teachers.

Created and executive produced by Mike O'Brien (SNL) and executive produced also by Seth Meyers (Late Night) and Lorne Michaels (SNL).

A.P. Bio premiered in February with a sneak preview, then got a special ratings boosted showcase following the closing of the Winter Olympics. Last week's season finale pulled just 2.1 million total viewers with a 0.6 demo rating, but the overall numbers were probably enough for NBC to order a second season. The network says that A.P. Bio has "one of the most highly educated audiences" on broadcast TV, ranking third among adults 18-49 with four or more years in college. So sees kids, school really does matter.

Also on Tuesday, NBC has ordered to series two new comedies: Amy Poehler EP'd "I Feel Bad" and "Abby's."

The single camera I Feel Bad stars Sarayu Blue (No Tomorrow) as Emet, a most imperfect mom, boss, wife, friend and daughter. The logline says "She feels bad when she has a sexy dream about someone other than her husbad (played by Paul Adelstein), or when she pretends not to know her kids when they misbehave in pubic, or when she uses her staff to help solve personal problems. But that's OD, right? Nobody can have it all and it perfectly."

The multi-cam Abby's, stars Natalie Morales (Parks and Recreation, The Grinder and Powerless) as the titular owner of "the best bar in San Diego, home to good prices, great company and of course, Abby. This unlicensed, makeshift bar nestled in her backyard is the opposite of everything annoying about today's party scene. There are rules at Abby's: no cell phones- that een to "look something up"- and earning a seat at the bar takes time and losing a challenge means drinking a lime, sugary, "not-beer" drink. As the oddball cast of regulars (which includes Neil Flynn from The Middle) will tell you, hanging out at Abby's is a coveted honor. But once you're in, you're family. Josh Malmuth (New Girl) is the showrunner/writer/EP.

The two new comedies have joined the three new dramas, New Amsterdam, The Enemy Within and The Village on NBC's roster for the 2018-2019 TV season. You can catch the full lineup when it is unveiled at the NBC's upfront presentation on Monday.

Set Back: A.P. Bio "Drenching Dallas" Season Finale

Image result for A.P. Bio Drenching Dallas



In the season finale, will Jack finally get what he had hoped for since the premiere? Here we go!

After taking the Miles' offer of taking his position at Stanford, Jack parades the school for one last time, but when he sees Colin get pranked by a girl, who asked him out to prom, he decides to help get revenge on her and the drum-line team. Just as they come up with great ideas to get back, Jack gets a call from Miles checking in and reminds him that he shouldn't do anything bad before moving to Stanford, which means he can't help the students' revenge.

Meanwhile, the teachers come up with a goodbye video for Jack at the prom, but when looking through clips they spot a ghost like figure, but they don't believe til Helen tells them the story of Beehive Bethany.

At the dance, the A.P. Bio students get ready for the revenge they've been looking for: to fake the king and queen ballots and Carrie their butts. But by the time it happened and Jack was given his short speech and the goodbye video plays, Jack gets a call from Miles and tells him that he got canned for being in a relationship online with a high school kid.  Which means Jack can't have the Stanford job because of Miles' recommendation and just as he gets the news, the bucket of pigs blood dumps on the king and queen and everyone runs out of the gym.

With a disappointing Jack walking back to school, he tells Durbin that he'll stay and walks back to his class, who thought that he had left for good. Sorry Sarika! But with no revenge plot to go on anymore, the Heather jumps to the chalkboard with a plan of her own to deport Miles. Soon it lefts Jack's spirit and takes down other people that done everyone wrong too even Jack (thanks Sarika!).

"Drenching Dallas" was very good and very much gave a nice closing end to the season, even though Jack didn't get what he wanted but his relationship with the students grown to even more. If there's a season 2 (which I hope there is) I hope it's about seeking revenge on those people they have listed on the board. That would be pretty good. The show has an amazing cast and the writing for the show is really good.

Overall, I give this episode a 9/10 and the season one a 8.5/10.

You can catch A.P. Bio available on NBC.com and NBC app.

Father! A.P. Bio "Walleye"

Image result for A.P. Bio Walleye



Does Jack's plan finally get Miles once and for all?

With Jack finally getting what is probably the well thought out plan to get back at Miles by pretending that one of Jack's A.P. Bio students to be Miles' son that he never knew. Using Devin, the plan worked quickly and as they spend time together Devin enjoyed it more and more and Jack's plan seemed to be not where he wanted it to go.

But when it finally came down, Devin does it in front of his classmates and Jack watching from outside the classroom. Miles runs being upset and Jack, coming in happy but soon runs off to apologizes to him about the whole thing. Miles sees that Jack was doing it because of jealously but really it looks like Miles is jealous of what Jack has. But it doesn't end there.

But I must get into the Principal Durbin having an idea for the school prom being the theme to the film Congo (based on the novel by Michael Crichton (Jurassic Park, Westworld and ER). When the teachers didn't think it was a good idea, he lets his disappointment show but then agrees to have his theme for the prom.

Getting back to Jack and Miles, after apologizing to Miles, the next day Jack gets a call from him about a surprising opportunity: to take his position at Stanford (the one that Jack wanted all along). But before he could say anything it end with a cliffhanger.

"Walleye" was another good episode that delivered enough humor and wit. It was a good story with mostly the humorist moments coming between Jack and his class about how to sell one of them as Miles' son. Also the Durbin and his idea about the prom theme was pretty good, but it did give me the idea to rewatch the movie Congo. The episode had good character development and the cast puts on a good and hilarious performances. Overall, I give this episode a 8/10.

Chop Chop Glory: A.P. Bio "Eight Pigs and a Rat"

Image result for AP Bio Eight Pigs and a Rat

From Principal Durban trying to show how innervating the school can be to figuring out who squealed about Jack's plan for biology class. It all relays on one student to get through this nightmare.

When Principal Durban is a finalist for the innervating principal of the year award for his school, he gets his teachers to find something innervating so they can do with students and show the superintendent as well. But it turns out that all the teachers were doing the same thing in different subjects all with a volcano. 

With everything not going the way he wanted it, it all relays on Jack and his class. But for Jack, he's dealing with a snitch who told about what he did with the baby pigs for their class experiment. As Jack torched the class to his ability, he finally got the answer from Heather, but when he called his buddy, who had them and was about to shoot them at Devin's place: turns out they exploded in the canon.

But when Heather learns about the baby pigs are gone, she throws a fit and tries to trash his car. She explains that she was looking forward to the experiment and working with Dan, who she has a crush on. The next day, just as Jack brings a dead squirrel, apparently Heather brings a full grown dead pig to class for the experiment. 

When Durban and the rest come to watch, Heather takes over with some amazing set of skills, as she works at her dad's butcher's shop. But Sarika calls upon Jack to talk about one of the pigs organs, for which he calls her bluff and teaches as he really knew biology.

With the superintendent happy, Durban happy with some pork loins, Jack thrilled too but rewards Heather for what she pulled off by cleaning up the room with Dan.

"Eight Pigs and a Rat" was a hilarious episode from start to finish. The cast puts a good performance with character development. From Howerton, Brielle, Oswalt, but mainly Arm puts on her funniest performance of the season so far. Whether it's the teachers pulling the same teaching, volcanoes to Jack torching his students on who sent a message to Durban about given away the pigs away. Probably one of my favorite episodes so far. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

Best Buddies: A.P. Bio "Durbin Crashes"

Image result for A.P. Bio "Durbin Crashes"

This episode was one of Patton Oswalt's best ones yet.

As Durbin hears the rest of the teachers talking about how they love a hit sci fi show, that seems to be Midnight, Texas, and wants to ignore any spoilers because he hasn't seen any of the episodes yet due to his wife not ready to watch it with him. After asking Jake for advise about the situation, he takes what Jack agrees and implies it, which leads to him getting kicked out of his house and living staying with Jack.

But when he stays with Jack, it because one weird stay as Durbin has sleeping walking issues and also tries to be Jack's wingman when meeting his former ex high school girlfriend, who happens to be split with her boyfriend. Jack tries to fix it between Durbin and his wife but it turns that they are both weird and lets Durbin stay for another few weeks.

Meanwhile, after getting his students to search Devin with disturbing words to get it trending, the students had a better idea that would help Jack but also get them to learn Biology, which was to find a way to plant murderous evidence on Devin. But after it seems to go well and too much learning, Jack stops it and gets them to use google to search Devin with disturbing words connecting to him.

"Durbin Crashes" was a good episode, mainly watching Oswalt's performance really stood out with good character development and just darn funny. Even the students trying to come up with a way to plant a murder on Devin was pretty funny with the way how they pursued Jack to allow it. Overall, I give this episode a 8/10.

Crying on My Mind: A. P. Bio "Rosemary's Boyfriend"

When Jack gets a knock at his door, he doesn't expect to see who will be reputation there. At the same time, the students face the life of caring for babies that aren't like any other babies. Here's a recap!

Just as Jack starts his morning off, he gets a knock at the door with a surprise to him: his mother's boyfriend. Brandon comes with gifts of flowers and condoms and hopes his mother will be there, but sadly, he doesn't get the memo of her death. All of this pisses off Jack, and even to make things worst for him, Brandon asks if they could both be at her grave and have a good cry moment.

Jack takes his issues to his students, who are dealing with the crisis of being parents with loud artificial babies. Trying to get some ideas from them, he separates them into two groups to reduce the noise. But Sarika finds Brandon's daughter, Sadie, a lawyer, and Jack visits her to talk about her dad, but soon has sex.

The next day, Jack brags about his one night with Sadie and tries to use it on Brandon, hoping that would piss him off. But it doesn't, and it just grows him closer and more pleasant, for which Jack tries to sucker punch him but fails and gets taken down.

The following day, Jack returns to class and talks to the students about what had happened. He suddenly snapped and took every baby in the school and had them go for a swim, which got those babies quiet and made him think that Brandon wasn't such a wrong person.

Meanwhile, Stef gets asked out by the janitor, who turns him down and tells him that her friend Mary has a crush on him. He confronts her about it and turns her down, but she isn't going to take it. He tries to get him to fall for her but instead gets the other janitor to fall in love with her. She then turns the tables on him about how her friend Stef has a crush on him.

"Rosemary's Boyfriend" was a much better episode than last week. It had good humor and wit, not to mention good character development. I couldn't get enough of watching how Jack deals with his students dealing with their artificial babies. Michael Gross was excellent, not Emmy award-worthy, but still good. All in all, I give this episode an 8/10.

Party, No Party: A.P. Bio "We Don't Party"

As Jack tries to win his ex-girlfriend over by helping with her fundraiser, the bio class tries to have a night to remember at the same place where Jack's party is held.

"We Don't Party" was a good episode with good moments and bad moments. Mainly, the thellousyyd moment was mostly between Jack and his ex-girlfriend friend Friewhere IreIi thought that Jack would have the upper hand in out-smarting the doctor with what we've seen throughout the season—even the teachers who came to the party didn't have much to do but comment. Even Mary's meeting a man who happens to have a thing for dressing up toes was weird.

 The good moments came with the AP Bio students having their party at the same place as Jack's at Victor's house. Whether it's watching the students drink and dance to music li, listening to Heather about cutting someone, or Victor comforting his friends about being scared to drink and yet taking a shot.

Also, watching Patton Oswalt's character trying to go to the party, even though he wasn't invited, had little to no effect on the story and was still funny.

Even though this might not be the best episode, it has its funny moments, but you will probably forget this episode after it's done.

Overall, I give this episode a 7/10.
