OK, the writing and acting is cheesy and mediocre at best, but I can deal with that. What it started to bother me really, really bad, is that the only recurrent bad guy in the show is the Math teacher. He doesn't trust his students, he scowls constantly and never smiles, he makes outrageous accusations (as I teacher, I fear I would have been fired if I made half the hateful comments this guy does), and he looks overtly Middle-Eastern. Also, it seems that the guy doesn't have a life and so he spends his time stalking his students. In episode 4 he is in the stands checking out the football players (oh, no! A gay Middle Eastern??? I really hope that Jim has a chance to beat him up before he contaminates his students!!!) and scowling at the fact that JJ is now in the team.
Then we wonder why Americans are more afraid of Middle-Easterns now than they did right after 9/11. It's like ME's are the new Russians, or something.
