TEACHERS ROCK
August 17, 2012  | By David Bianculli

CBS, 8:00 p.m. ET

 
I’ve partial to this type of TV special, even if it does go for a bit too much surface gloss. It’s a celebration of teachers, with celebrities talking about the teachers who inspired them, while other performers, including Garth Brooks and Carrie Underwood, entertain by singing and playing in salute. What celebrities, you ask? (Well, maybe you ask. Maybe you’re just reading silently, while I’m writing aloud.) Meryl Streep, Jennifer Garner, Adam Levine and others. One of the others is Matthew Morrison of Glee, who isn’t a teacher – but he plays one on TV.
