Fans discuss whether the British series Teachers is similar to Seinfeld, noting both shows feature funny, cynical characters with obsessions, though opinions vary on how close the comparison truly is.
I've been thinking about it a lot. Teachers and Seinfeld have a lot in common.
- Very Funny
- Nasty People
- Pretty Girl(s)
- Obsessions
- Donkeys (well, maybe not)
- CynicsI love both, like to know others opinions.

Hmm - interesting - I assumed your talking about the C4 series that just ended.
I hadn't considered the similarites and I dont realy think they are alike.
No Donkeys but there was a lion in the bogs!
What do you think of the book group?
Yeah.
I really think they're alike. So close.
Well, there's a donkey in EVERY ep of Teachers.
Love it, but it lacks the air of bleakness and self-centred thinking that seinfeld/teachers gives off.
DV
Good
alike.
OK
Realy?
Bleakness?
Yup. I'd like to know if anyone knows of an ep. that doesn't have one in.
Usually in the background. Also midgits being thrown into wheely-bins.
that
Darkness and Cynicism.

Any of you guys have videos of this show and would be willing to send them to the US? I think I located Series 1 already but I'd like to find Series 2, or if you have both it'd really be great ;-). I'd pay all tape, postage costs, etc. E-Mail me if you can help.
