FX‘s English Teacher has been a comedic gem this fall, and although the final bell has rung on Season 1, star Stephanie Koenig has high hopes for the return of Gwen Sanders and the rest of her high school colleagues in the Austin, Texas-set series.
Gwen had quite the finale episode moment. A breakup with her boyfriend led to a hilariously unhinged musical performance at a bar where she and coworkers were hosting a surprise birthday party for her best friend Evan (Brian Jordan Alvarez). TV Insider caught up with the star to discuss Gwen’s moment in the spotlight, including whether or not her tune was improvised.
Plus, she’s digging into thoughts and feelings about the potential romance between Gwen and the school coach with a heart of gold, Markie (Sean Patton), whose crush was further defined and revealed to Evan in Episode 8’s final moments. See what Koenig had to share about the possibility of their onscreen future, hopes for a potential second season, and more, below.
