The shows stars, Gabriel Iglesias, a comedian and now-actor from Long Beach. The setting takes places at Woodrow Wilson High school and it is about a teacher who is making a positive difference in the life of his students. The actual show was not filmed in Wilson high, but the shots of the actual outer campus were still included.
