-
- TV & Film
This week we're talking teachers and tech startups. We look at the other work of New Girl series creator Elizabeth Meriwether, including the the romcom No Strings Attached and the critically-acclaimed Hulu series The Dropout. We also discuss the character archetype of the teacher as seen in media, from Ms. Frizzle to Jess Day to our new favorite, Ms. Teagues on Abbott Elementary. What common threads and through lines do we find in both of these explorations?
This New Republic profile of Liz Meriwether draws out interesting parallels between her work and that of Lena Dunham. This Mental Floss list of memorable TV teachers includes Jessica Day.
