    7/10

    Well the animation looks decent for me the director was Gary Baseman the one who created this show since 2000 til 2005 but despite the theme song being catchy it can sometimes have bad moments.

    Deserves a Daytime Emmy!

    The coolest cartoon of the new millennium! I like Nathan Lane voicing the hammy dog (Spot/Scott) as well as Debra Jo Rupp doing double duty on a prime time show & a cartoon (That 70's Show).

    But my favorite character is Mr. Jolly (David Odgen Stiers)! The sensative orange cat who's kind hearted. Whether Mr. Jolly laughs over Pretty Boy's pratfalls or dehydrates himself by crying too much, Mr. Jolly's the secret star of the show (being I'm a cat lover myself).

    This cartoon deserves a Daytime Emmy Award for Best Animated Series &/or Best Performer in a Children's Series.

    very cool

    TEACHER'S PET is a surprising choice for an ABC Saturday morning cartoon, especially as part of One Saturday Morning. It can be very trippy at times. But it's pretty zany, which makes it a cool cartoon. Nathan Lane is the (oddly) perfect choice for the voice of Spot/Scott. Debra Jo Rupp (THAT 70'S SHOW) adds her usual charm to the voice of Mrs. Helperman. Jerry Stiller and David Ogden Stiers also give amusing relief to the voices of Pretty Boy and Mr. Jolly.

    The show is on ABC Saturday mornings at around 9:00 A.M.

    Way to go Disney!

    Once again Disney gives us another winner on its One Saturday Morning block. I think Nathan Lane is the perfect choice as the voice of Spot (aka Scott when he's in school), as is Jerry Stiller, and David Ogden Stiers as the voices of Pretty Boy, and Mr. Jolly. And yes, Wallace Shawn is good for the principal's voice too. But enough of the great voice talents. This show is good, and I hope it stays on for a long time!

    I love this show.

    I love Teacher's Pet with a passion. It's a show with wit, intelligence, humor and cute animals! This show is just worth watching alone for the voices. My favorite character is Spot. He is a good role model. He is who he wants to be and not what others tell him to be. (Nathan Lane is perfect as Spot.)

    Bye now,
