Teachers Only background

Teachers Only

A comedy series centered around high school teacher Diana Swanson, who frequently engages in conversations in the teacher's lounge.

In its inaugural run (April to June 1982),the series was set at Millard Fillmore High School in Los Angeles. The main characters included Diana Swanson as an English teacher, Ben Cooper as the school principal, Michael Dreyfuss and Gwen Edwards as fellow teachers, Mr. Brody as the assistant principal, and Mr. Pafko as the janitor. Scenes primarily took place in the faculty lunchroom and lounge where students were not allowed to enter. In its second iteration (February to May 1983),the show was relocated to Woodrow Wilson High School in New York with Diana Swanson now serving as a Guidance Counselor, alongside a new cast featuring Samantha Keating, Michael Horne, Spud Le Boone as the gym teacher, and Shari as the principal's secretary.
