Contents. Synopsis Steve Hightower is a 1970s legend who is now a music teacher/vice-principal at High School on 's West Side. Budget cutbacks meant Steve also had to teach drama and art, much to his surprise. Cedric Robinson is a coach at the high school, and Steve's longtime best friend. The principal of Booker T. Washington High is Steve's former classmate, Regina Grier , whom Steve affectionately calls 'Piggy', because of the fact that she was overweight as an adolescent. Steve forms a strong bond with two of his students: Romeo Santana , a stylish, popular, self-absorbed ladies' man, and the equally vacuous Stanley Kuznocki, nicknamed Bullethead - acting as their mentor, and gradually, accepts them as friends.
In 1997, the show introduced a new character, a secretary named Lovita Jenkins , a woman who is fundamentally good in nature, but nonetheless, considerably unrefined in terms of disposition. Cedric and Lovita begin dating, and eventually marry and produce a child. The show also featured a succession of young actresses who served as female foils to Romeo and Bullethead; the longest-lasting of these was as the overachieving, socially inept Lydia Gutman.She would also call Bullethead a 'broke ' whenever he annoyed her, but would usually refer to Lydia as 'Linda', 'Lisa', or 'Lucy' (correctly calling her 'Lydia' only once).

Steve's topical humor of popular culture was also another recurring gag. One example of these jokes: 'When I see that woman, I'm like doing - I just don't know how to act!' Another recurring gag on the show was despite being a one-time famous musician in the universe of the show, Steve was always mistaken for being other famous musicians. For example, in an episode guest starring, he refers to him as 'That Cop from the.' Another episode featured singer, who when Steve went to introduce himself to see if she'd remember him, answers 'Oh yes! Give my best to the rest of ' (referring to singer ). Occasional gags referenced Bullethead's trailer park lifestyle, and Romeo's numerous names (he has used the names Romeo Miguel Jesus Pele Rojas Alejandro Santana).
In one episode, he wrote all of his names on paper but never prepared his assignment, resulting in an 'F'. Lydia almost always displayed an obsession for her classmate/alleged lover, Arthur Rabinowitz (whom Steve referred to as 'that polite Jewish boy that does his taxes'), and for her favorite entertainer,; however, she had total disdain for classmates 'Heather the cheerleader' and 'Jennifer the cheerleader'. One other gag was that teachers would refer to a student (amongst themselves) because of a condition or appearance ('Helmet Boy' for wearing a special helmet in gym class; 'Au Natural Girl' for having a strong body odor, and 'Firestarter' for one kid who kept setting items on fire).
