English Teacher Season 2 (2025): Cast, Plot, Release Date, Review & Where to Watch – FX’s Sharp-Witted Sitcom Returns This September

📺 FX’s English Teacher is back! After winning hearts and critical praise in 2024, the high school comedy-drama created by and starring Brian Jordan Alvarez returns for its highly anticipated Season 2 on September 25, 2025, airing on FX and streaming exclusively on Hulu.

The series blends razor-sharp humor with social commentary, capturing the chaos, contradictions, and comedy of life as a high school teacher in Austin, Texas.

✏️ A Quick Recap of English Teacher

Season 1 introduced us to Evan Marquez (Brian Jordan Alvarez), a passionate high school English teacher at Morrison-Hensley High School. Evan often found himself torn between his personal values, professional obligations, and the political minefields of modern education. As Evan quipped in one of the show’s memorable lines:

“Teaching English is easy. Teaching people how to survive high school? That’s the real literature.”

The first season earned strong reviews for its witty writing, heartfelt character arcs, and Alvarez’s unique blend of humor and vulnerability. FX quickly renewed it in early 2025, paving the way for another year of classroom chaos.

📚 What to Expect in Season 2

Season 2 promises to dive deeper into Evan’s struggles as he continues balancing being a principled teacher while navigating the quirks of both students and staff.

• Evan Marquez (Brian Jordan Alvarez): Still trying to do the right thing but often tripping over his own convictions.

• Gwen Sanders (Stephanie Koenig): Evan’s loyal best friend and fellow teacher, serving equal parts sarcasm and support.

• Principal Grant Moretti (Enrico Colantoni): The pragmatic administrator trying to hold the school together.

• Markie Hillridge (Sean Patton): The gym teacher whose eccentric antics often clash with Evan’s seriousness.

New faces are also expected to bring fresh tension and comedic twists, with Langston Kerman joining as Harry, a new

teacher whose arrival may shake up the staff room dynamics.

And of course, the students remain central—ranging from Tiffany, the sharp but underestimated student, to Kayla, whose “Kayla Syndrome” brought some of the funniest (and strangely heartfelt) moments of Season 1.

🌟 Guest Stars & Surprises

FX’s English Teacher is known for quirky cameos, and Season 2 will continue the tradition. Last season featured drag icon Trixie Mattel as Shazam, a scene-stealing friend of Evan’s. Expect more unexpected guest appearances that blur the line between comedy and social satire.

📅 Release Date & Streaming

• Premiere Date: September 25, 2025

• Where to Watch: FX (weekly episodes) & Hulu (all episodes available to stream)

Whether you’re here for the biting satire, the heartfelt classroom dynamics, or the sheer chaos of Evan’s life, Season 2 promises to deliver more laughs, more awkward parent-teacher conferences, and more brilliantly written moments that keep fans coming back.

🎭 Why You Should Watch

English Teacher stands out in the modern sitcom landscape because it dares to mix comedy with the realities of education and identity. With sharp writing, an authentic cast, and Alvarez’s personal stamp as creator and star, this series is not just funny—it’s deeply relatable.

As Evan himself might say:

“Life doesn’t come with a syllabus. You just have to improvise your way through the exam.”

Season 2 of English Teacher is shaping up to be another smart, hilarious, and heartfelt semester at Morrison-Hensley High. Don’t be late for class.

✨ Final Note: Mark your calendars—September 25 is the day English Teacher Season 2 officially takes attendance.
