Miss Guided Homecoming (2008) Online

Having seen Judy Greer in movies like 13 Going on 30, 27 Dresses, and TV shows like "Arrested Development", "Love Monkey", and "Two and a Half Men", I was anxious to see her in her first starring role in the TV series "Miss Guided". Here, she plays Becky Freeley, a former student at the high school she returns to as the new guidance counselor. Also on hand is former SNLer Chris Parnell as the vice principal, Kristoffer Polaha as the Spanish teacher Becky has a crush on, and Brooke Burns as Lisa, Becky's rival back then and now. Ms. Greer provides many amusing lines and does some good physical stuff. Parnell himself also steals some scenes. Judy's dialogue with some of the students, like the one she thinks has a crush on her, also has some moments. The whole thing seems uneven so far though, since the show can't make up its mind if we're supposed to laugh at or with the characters. Nonetheless, this seems like a good start for a promising series.
