In Miss Guided, the always-adorable Judy Greer plays a guidance counselor named Becky Freeley who works at her old high school. In a move that recalls the Drew Barrymore vehicle Never Been Kissed, the show does a lot of flashbacks showing what a total loser Becky was back in the day. And though she continues to try to shed her doofus ways, no matter how hard she tries, they come back to haunt her. In the clip above from last night's premiere episode, Becky attends a school dance. Becky wanted to go with the steamy Spanish teacher, Tim, but the hot new English teacher/ former homecoming queen, Lisa, asks him first. Too humiliated to face Tim and Lisa, Becky decides to watch the proceedings from the bushes, and semi-hilarity ensues. More »

Comedies about the awkwardness of high school are nothing new, but that doesn't mean that a show centered around teens cannot be both fresh and funny (See: Strangers with Candy and Freaks and Geeks). ABC is hoping that viewers will see past the conventional with Miss Guided, a new sitcom premiering tonight at 10:30 and starring Judy Greer (the hilarious Kitty Sanchez in Arrested Development) as Becky, an ex-nerd who returns to high school as a guidance counselor. (The supporting cast includes Chris Parnell as Vice-Principal Bruce Terry and a cameo by executive producer and hunky piece of particle board, Ashton Kutcher.) The show takes a few cues from unconventional sitcoms like The Office with a documentary feel and characters who address the camera directly, but can Miss Guided be funny, and more importantly, keep viewers tuning in week after week? Collected reviews after the jump. More »
