Ian Roberts and Jay Martel, showrunners of the hit Comedy Central series Key and Peele, will be showrunners on TV Land's new scripted comedy pilot Teachers. The pilot is based on the popular web series of the same name, revolves around six elementary school teachers who are trying to mold the minds and lives of America's youth, but they don't really seem to have their own lives together at all. From making their class help them stalk exes online to altering a grade because the art teacher is "kind of a b****," these teachers are certainly changing the world, one student at a time. Teachers is set to tape this summer.
Teachers will be executive produced by Alison Brie (Community) and stars Caitlin Barlow, Katy Colloton, Cate Freedman, Kate Lambert, Katie O'Brien and Katie Thomas – also known as The Katydids – who starred in the web series. If the pilot is picked-up to series we will certainly let you know. Coming up, TV Land has new comedy series Jennifer Falls premiering this June starring Jaime Pressly.
