Stephanie Koenig and Brian Jordan Alvarez in English Teacher Episode 3
English Teacher, FX's new workplace comedy created by and starring Brian Jordan Alvarez, is already off to a promising start. Alvarez plays Evan Marquez, an openly gay teacher who attempts to navigate the ins and outs of his job at a high school in Austin, Texas.
English Teacher smartly avoids this common dilemma from the very beginning. In the pilot of English Teacher, Evan has to deal with a homophobic parent who filed a complaint that, during the previous year, he kissed his boyfriend at the time, who was a fellow teacher, in front of her son. By the end of the episode, Evan avoids losing his job — but he’s told that he can’t have any relationships with fellow faculty members in the future, right before really meeting Harry for the first time.
A Potential Evan/Harry Romance Could Still Happen on 'English Teacher' In the first episode of English Teacher, Harry catches Evan’s eye immediately, but they don’t actually speak to each other until the final scene. Evan gets so flustered meeting him that when Harry says his home back in Louisiana was destroyed in a storm, Evan replies, “That’s great.” He quickly corrects himself. Harry tells him, “I like your shirt.
