Mixing it up with laugh-out-loud comedy, youthful appeal and a likable
namesake lead, The Steve Harvey Show crackles with high school hijinks
and teacher entanglements in a hip urban setting.
In the series, former R&B star Steve Hightower gives up his wild times for
school ties, becoming an inner-city Chicago music teacher – and eventually a
vice principal – with a ragtag bunch of classroom charges. Headlining the
Hi-Tops soul group – who opened for the likes of Gladys Knight and the Pips –
Hightower’s touring career never quite hit the high note he expected. Down on
his luck, and totally out of money, he decides to let go of his carefree
lifestyle and pin down a “real” job. With an assist from his longtime friend
and eventual roommate, the gym coach with the insatiable appetite Cedric Robinson,
Steve enrolls in a new type of performing and makes a classroom at Washington
High School his stage. Initially grappling with the students’ penchant for baggy
clothes, bad attitudes and baffling slang, Steve soon realizes that a
compassionate spin will help him tone down his shock and contend
with the kids’ problems… be they hard knocks or humorous woes.
Steve’s also initially stunned by his boss, no-nonsense Principal Regina Grier.
Once the overweight butt of Steve’s practical jokes when they were classmates
years ago, Regina has no intention of letting him forget his place now – at
least most of the time. But her newly-svelte persona wows Steve, and they
actually dance around each other in a love/hate cha-cha-cha. Cedric has his
own love subject, falling for Grier’s new, overtly outspoken assistant Lovita,
who also takes outlandish opportunities to rattle Steve.
Office romances aside, Steve tries reining in a class headed by Romeo, a
fast-talking ladies’ teen who takes his name seriously; Stanley “Bullethead”
Kuznocki, a street-savvy tough guy whose brawn outweighs his brain; the group’s
honors student Lydia who, despite knowing she’s smarter than them all, gets
pulled into crazy schemes hoping to cash in on some coolness; and Sophia
and Sara who each fall for Romeo’s seemingly-indestructible charm.
