Head of the Class is an American sitcom that ran from 1986 to 1991 on the ABC television network. The series follows a group of gifted students in the Individualized Honors Program at the fictional Monroe High School in Manhattan, and their history teacher Charlie Moore. The program was ostensibly a vehicle for Hesseman, best known for his role as radio DJ Dr. Johnny Fever in the sitcom WKRP in Cincinnati. Hesseman left Head of the Class in 1990 and was replaced by Billy Connolly as teacher Billy MacGregor for the final season. After the series ended, Connolly appeared in a short-lived spin-off titled Billy. The series was created and executive produced by Rich Eustis and Michael Elias. Rich Eustis had previously worked as a New York City substitute teacher while hoping to become an actor.

This was one sick TV series It's about smart students who are considered inferior to other students. It's basically just an exercise in dehumanization. The entire class is somewhat dehumanized, but one student in particular is the scapegoat even of the class. This is something Hitler would have loved, but no one else.
Great show with a lot of good messages about how complicated life can be for smart overachievers. It puts to rest a whole lot of the disgusting stereotypes that just because someone is successful it is because they are "privileged." The kids work hard and deal with a lot of unnecessary drama from people who often just want to use them and take credit for their accomplishments.
