10 Shows Like ‘A.P. Bio’ To Watch If You Miss the Series

A.P. Bio is the antithesis of every comedy about teachers ever made just like It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia is the antithesis of Friends, and the fun thing is that Glenn Howerton stars in both of those shows. A.P. Bio follows Jack Griffin, a philosophy professor as he is pushed out of his job at Harvard and banished to Toledo living in his dead mom’s house and not teaching the A.P. Bio class in Whitlock High School. A.P. Bio ran for four brilliant seasons but it was canceled after that. So, if you miss the series here are some shows you could watch next.

Synopsis: Set in Derry Northern Ireland in the 1990s, Derry Girls is a candid, one-of-a-kind comedy about what it’s like to be a teenage girl living amongst conflict. It’s a warm, laugh out loud funny and honest look at the lives of an ordinary family living through the Troubles in the early nineties. Armed police in armoured Land Rovers, British Army check points and ‘peace’ walls are all an everyday reality for Erin. But, despite all that, she has other things to worry about, like the fact the boy she’s in love with (actually in LOVE with), doesn’t know she exists. Or that her Ma and Aunt Sarah make her include her weirdo cousin in EVERYTHING she does. Or that head teacher, Sister Michael, refuses to acknowledge Erin as a literary genius. Not to mention the fact that her second best friend has ALMOST had sex, whereas Erin’s never even kissed anyone yet. Like all teenage girls, Erin has her own Troubles. Derry Girls is based on writer Lisa McGee’s (Indian Summers, Being Human) own experiences of growing up in Northern Ireland amidst immense civil conflict.
