Good luck. I'm in the bubble right now myself.
Speaking of high school based comedies, you ever seen/heard of the Canadian show Mr. D? Pretty good, as is Schitt's Creek, another Canadian half-hour.

They should have cancelled this show. It fell off so hard in Season 2 and it was obvious that the folks in charge got scared that there were too many black people in lead roles so they tried to whiten it up.

I don't think this is true at all.
In fact, it's one of the first times that I've seen a show this racially diverse that didn't make a point of being racially diverse.
At no point in the 2 seasons have I felt like I've been watching a predominantly black show, even though most of the time that's what it was.
I think they just made the cast too bloated and had to trim the fat.
They bumped up Katrina and diminished the Ichabod/Abby dynamic for the majority of Season 2.
Tossed Capt. Irving and Jenny in the bushes for Generic Blond White Guy for most of Season 2.

Then realized their mistake and got rid of blonde white guy, Katrina, old guy, and Captain Irving.
Feels to me like they tried to expand the universe, figured they took on too much/had too much dead weight, so kept it moving.
Now if they replaced Irving with blonde white guy permanently, then I think you'd be on to something.
Its not like they came to the conclusion on their own...rating tanked like crazy and Fox stepped in and hit them with theThen realized their mistake and got rid of blonde white guy, Katrina, old guy, and Captain Irving.

I try not to take rumors all that seriously but you're right fam. Apparently there were rumors that the show runners and executive producers didn't expect the show to develop the diverse fanbase that it initially got in season one. They didn't want it to be seen as "too diverse"
. That's why with the second you saw fake ass Nathan drake step in instead of having Jenny do what she normally does. Also, there were rumors that one of the executive producers was messing around with Katrina's actress and that's why all of a sudden she was pushed to the forefront.
Plus we had Orlando Jones absent for most of the season.
Then, I don't know if you saw but Niclole Beharie tweeted how she wasn't invited to do commentary for the second season DVD even though she did the 1st season
Like you said, the heads up at Fox saw the decline and stepped in.

Fox moved the show to Thursday nights. Sametime as How to Get Away With Murder. Not a good move.

What happened to this show?
If it wasn't for the living goddess that is Nicole Beharie, I woulda been tapped out.
Now I have to endure an episode of Bones to not be lost next season.

Or just do what I'm doing and not watch the episode of Bones
