The new comedy will return for Season 2.
May 8, 2018
NBC announced today that A.P. Bio has been renewed for a second season. The Seth Meyers-produced comedy premiered as a mid-season entry in February and just wrapped its 13-episode freshman run last week.
The half-hour series follows a philosophy scholar who, after losing out on his dream job, takes a position as a high school Advanced Placement Biology teacher. But he has plans far beyond teaching biology, including using his classroom full of honor roll students to help him mentally break his job-stealing nemesis and win back the position that he feels is rightfully his.
Critical response to the first season of A.P. Bio was mixed, with reviewers recognizing the show's ability to generate laughs but expecting more from the overall premise. Viewers seemed to have similar sentiments, as ratings were ultimately underwhelming.
Look for Season 2 of A.P. Bio to return for the 2018-2019 season, likely as a mid-season entry once again.

I understand why most of you (not all) don't see the humor in this show, let's face it, your basic. Your sense of humor is basic, your education is basic(at best), and your self worth is" well " nothing. So you lash out on the Internet, hiding behind your screen, at some show that depicts a man, that above some bumbs in the road, continue's on with determination, something you obviously lack in your own life. This show is witty, heartfelt but not too much, dark but not much, and shines light on the disaster that is our public school system. Who care if takes place in Mass, I'm so tired of taking place in So Cal.

It's called a laugh track and it's used for simple people that don't know when to laugh at something whether it's funny or not so they have to be cued.
If you have to be told when to laugh then you may not know what humor is.

This is not for the laugh track crowd. This is not a CBS show. You might miss the jokes if you wait to be cued into what they are. The comedy also comes from the delivery and actions / reactions, not just the lines being said. If you can't get the jokes then you might be missing them.

I like shows like big bang theory and two broke girls. They gave me time to laugh at a joke. I can seem to find the jokes in this show because they "never stop" to tell them. Also why does the live studio audience not laugh at the jokes? Big bang theory has them laughing at every line. That show must have lots of jokes. I want my shows to have jokes and give me time to laugh.

Very dull. No jokes. Weak cast. I honestly cant remember much of the pilot at all. So forgettable and lame. If it was a choice between this and the airfryer infomercial, honestly i laughed more at the air fryer guy.

Agree with Moe B--what do you think is funny then??? I absolutely love the show, and I'm a big fan of Glenn Howerton. He's cocky and self-absorbed, and that is what makes this show so funny. As far as insulting the teaching profession--come on! It's just a 30-minute sitcom! Lighten up! We've got some great teachers in this country, specifically Massachusetts, and not one of them would want to aspire to Howerton's character. It's just a show!!!!
