"Set amid the members of a high school faculty, “Miss Guided” (which begins on Tuesday and then moves to Thursdays) belongs to the universe of stunted-growth comedy. This is a genre that has had a sporadic if successful run on television, beginning with the brilliant “Get a Life” in the early ’90s, a series that starred Chris Elliott as a 30-year-old paperboy, and getting a kick with “Strangers With Candy,” a wonderful grotesquerie in which Amy Sedaris wore a fat suit and Howard Hughes toenails to play a 40-ish high school student addicted to adolescent styles of humiliation."
