Teech is an American
situation comedy that briefly aired on

1991 Fall lineup. The series was co-produced by Kid'n'Graph Productions in association with
Columbia Pictures Television for CBS.
Synopsis
Teech stars
Phill Lewis as "Teech" Gibson, an
African American music instructor (and the "coolest teacher") at Winthrop Academy, a prestigious, predominantly-white
prep school. Teech loved music and his students and had tremendous appeal even to troubled, disruptive students. Teech also had appeal to Cassie Lee (
Maggie Han), the sexy assistant headmaster who had hired him. Headmaster Alfred Litton (
Steven Gilborn) wanted to dismiss Teech's troubled students from the school. He apparently would like to have done the same to Teech except he realized that so doing would likely open him to charges of
racism and discrimination.
