Brian Jordan Alvarez is Ready to Teach Us More Lessons in Laughter
Brian Jordan Alvarez, the insanely talented creator, writer, and star of English Teacher, is totally hyped for a second season! And for good reason! With a stellar 97% critical score and 84% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes; those amazing ratings completely highlight the impressive work that he put into this incredible work; his dedication is extremely visible! It's obvious how well this first season has resonated with fans, creating some serious buzz about a future season. And this wasn't simply hype. Alvarez, alongside co-writer Stephanie Koenig (who plays Gwen Sanders) has actually discussed that hope before the first episode aired! Alvarez is aiming for something just as legendary as It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia–many, many seasons of hilarious goodness.
During a chat with Decider, Alvarez expresses his passion clearly: “I am completely ready to make as much of this show as is humanly possible. I’m very excited for the future.” This clear enthusiasm suggests an already established desire to explore those key aspects surrounding the storyline, showing further commitment from him to deliver what fans and viewers have already started to greatly expect! It gives those of us eagerly anticipating another season some serious hope!
What This Means For English Teacher’s Future
Although English Teacher isn’t officially renewed yet (still! Seriously, FX and Hulu!), Alvarez's comments are very reassuring. Besides his major involvement, Alvarez has actively engaged with his expanding fanbase on social media. He brilliantly used that amazing word-of-mouth marketing to keep the hype train going; constantly pushing this show toward higher viewing figures on Hulu as well as across other media, showing just how engaged he actually is in continuing and growing that existing popularity. Those amazing early results really did greatly influence him.
Season one delivered strong character arcs, a blend of witty writing and insightful storylines tackling contemporary issues. Alvarez wants more. The stories surrounding the titular Evan Marquez and his coworkers are definitely going to keep audiences watching and there's room for tons of potential plot expansions which were left unfinished: more focus on Evan’s struggles as a gay man in this exact environment, further exploration of his eccentric colleagues, all those comedic interactions and possibilities only seen early on are also worth following.
Our Take: Why English Teacher Needs Season 2
English Teacher was a total standout comedy. It brilliantly uses smart writing that has real heart behind those many, amazing character developments which only a quality writer could bring; making it really successful and completely appealing to modern audiences everywhere; generating incredible reactions and reviews! The initial season left us wanting way, way more and clearly a good storyline arc. That creative potential needs to be explored in full. Evan, Gwen, Markie, Principal Moretti—these amazing and brilliant characters; need more time for further character growth; the addition of potential storylines only achievable through long-term writing would greatly affect the depth and impact upon those key storylines and thematic choices for the narrative! Giving viewers more English Teacher isn’t merely smart—it's a necessity!
Conclusion: Let’s Hope FX & Hulu Hear the Class Calling!
Alvarez’s enthusiasm makes that exciting possibility of another season seem so real and completely within reach; creating a sense that continued success is possible, only needing some higher support from higher levels within the show's production and business environment. That heartfelt comedy tackling real-world topics truly makes for an enjoyable experience.
Let’s be clear: A Season 2 should already exist. More of that fantastic blend of laughter and thoughtful writing is needed, providing viewers further development to all those awesome storylines developed during the first season.
