Alvarez also serves as executive producer on the show along with Paul Simms, who is also an executive producer on the FX show “What We Do in the Shadows” and was previously an executive producer on “Atlanta.” Jonathan Krisel (“Baskets,” “Portlandia”) and Dave King (“Parks and Recreation,” “The Good Place”) also executive produce. FX Productions will produce.

Alvarez has appeared in a number of hit shows over the years. Those include “Jane the Virgin,” “2 Broke Girls,” “Get Shorty,” and the revival of “Will & Grace.” He is also the creator and star of the YouTube sitcom “The Gay and Wondrous Life of Caleb Gallo.”

“Brian is an incredibly talented writer, actor and creator who has fully delivered on his vision for ‘English Teacher,’” said Nick Grad, president of FX Entertainment. “Together with a creative team featuring Paul Simms and Jonathan Krisel, along with this brilliant cast, they have created a hilarious, original comedy that is fresh, engaging and fun.”
