The first season consists of six episodes and also features Amanda Peet as the creator and showrunner.
‘The Chair’ succeeds Dr Ji-Yoon Kim (Oh), who has just been appointed head of the English department at prestigious Pembroke University. Now, the teacher and mother of little Ju-Hee (Carganilla) faces a unique set of challenges as the first woman and non-white person to hold this position. Additionally, the college has seen a significant drop in enrollment, adding to the trials and tribulations on Kim’s path. Other members of her department include Joan Hambling (Taylor), a very intelligent teacher who is a close friend and confidante of Kim; Professor Bill Dobson (Duplass); Yasmin McKay (Mensah), a popular teacher who is also close to Kim; Elliot Mentz (Balaban), a distinguished but stubborn teacher; and Paul Larson (Morse), the dean of Pembroke.
Everly Carganilla, Holland Taylor, Jay Duplass, Nana Mensah, Bob Balaban and David Morse complete the cast.
