Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

Mjeteconer Just perfect...

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

leghornboyrkl1 Yes some things happened that would turn out totally different outcomes ( see principal shoves student into a locker from earlier post etc: )in real life, but this show had the balls to tackle some very sensitive and racial issues.It was not afraid to bring any issue to our sets and that was the reason for its early cancellation. Advertisers didn't have the balls to sponsor it worrying about consumers reactions. Each episode dealt with issues that at the end had a moral and gave the viewer something to think about. The mixing of school and private lives of the teachers gave the show an added charm about it. It was a show that on occasion would bring a tear to my eye. Yes Harry Senate was a rebel of a teacher, but I know it would have been great to have a teacher like that a student could turn to one so dedicated when I was a kid. Scott Guber, well I had a vice principal just like him in HS. So hated by the students but looking back he was just trying to get everyone through HS and had an odd way of going about it. Was the only student to go to his wake. Harvey Lipschitz was a nice character that brought some pretty funny moments to the show. For the most part the entire cast was likable and the show was always well put forth and kept viewers coming back for more. Bought all episodes here on the internet 2 years ago but they were bootlegs filmed off of a TV set and the copies were terrible. I hope to some day find a real copy of the entire series but until then can only hold its memories near to my heart. Lets not forget Principal Harper who was probably the most controversial principal ever. But at the end of the day he always seemed to make it feel right. Best show ever in my opinion, wish it was still running today.

strangelexicon Boston public, from its already highly reputed developers, does not fail to deliver. I can imagine that a non-American audience would find events presented in this series as quite shocking. The writing and acting is top notch. Theonly problem with the series is that it portrays the American schooling system has highly out of control and indisciplined, even though the staff themselves are shown to be highly professional and capable people working under immense pressure. That seems to be a move to make it a little more commercial. For the same purpose, we see too much sex and everyone is sleeping with each other in some controversial way or the other. The subject of sex is used extremely often, although it may not be such a bad thing. Towards the later seasons, the show seems to have run out of ideas and started deriving plots from current political situations such as the war on terrorism. Despite such unoriginality, this show is one of the best TV shows ever made.

SICILY4ME I wish that more satellite channels would carry BOSTON PUBLIC at various times through out the day and or evening.. I feel they are very well written and I enjoy watching them. Please see if anyone can suggest this to the satellite carrier. I feel more people would enjoy better selections offered on satellite TV.I feel more and more people today are looking for subjects and discussions on what is being viewed on TV. Family's need to sit down and talk to each other besides watching TV in their different rooms and than going their own ways in daily living. There are many subjects in the story lines that my help families with curtain subject matters. In todays world, we all need help with everyday living let alone the pressures that are either placed on us, or we are expected to know how to handle.

ncassara I would like to say this is a great show. I'm sorry I just started watching this TV series on TV1 (cable). It hits many real live situations that is now going on in the public school systems with our children and teachers. It really makes you think what the teacher actually go through with our children and vis versa in the low-class and middle class communities. It is really and truly an eye catcher. Its just sad that a show that has so much reality and truth in it has to end, but the re-runs are great. Hopefully they may continue a new season at a later time. I commend all the writers, producers and actors for a job very well done.
