Same here. We don't need "A Very Special Episode" of Abbott Elementary. This show handles the struggles of an underfunded school quite well. They don't have to go into a very ghoulish territory. 11 Link to comment

853fisher July 25, 2022 Share July 25, 2022 (edited) Who else is watching "The Final Straw" with Janelle James on Sundays? It's a Jenga-type game with fun production design, silly and cute and with enough extra so you're not just sitting there watching them pull things out for an hour. Janelle and the unseen announcer pitch their jokes just about right. The contestants have also been pretty good, not as relentlessly "on" as some games seem to like. I started watching largely to support a member of the cast, but I've kept with it because, although it's a bit slow-moving, it's quite charming and good escapism.

milkyaqua August 17, 2022 Share August 17, 2022 From TVLine, Matt's Inside Line Do you have any fun teasers of what will happen on Abbott Elementary this season? –B.J. We just spoke to executive producers Justin Halpern and Patrick Schumacker at the HCA TV Awards, and they said to expect to see in Season 2 (premiering Wednesday, Sept. 21) more of where characters live, and maybe meet new relatives and friends outside of the school environment. Bonus teaser: “We do have some special guest stars that I think will surprise people, specifically in the premiere,” Halpern previewed. Link to comment

We talk about her long career in showbiz — from Dreamgirls on Broadway to Moesha, and how she made her own way in an industry that didn't offer many parts to Black women. 6 Link to comment
milkyaqua September 20, 2022 Share September 20, 2022 Abbott Elementary EPs Preview Janine and Gregory's Future, Ava's New 'Depths,' Season 2's Expanding World During a Television Critics Association virtual press tour panel, creator/star Quinta Brunson explained that “in order to flesh out the backstories of these characters a little bit more and give viewers something that they didn’t have the first season, we thought it would be great to, every now and then, go into their backstories, into their lives,” she shared. “And the home is a great place to learn more about a character. We aren’t going to technically live there, but we think it is a really fun experience for the audience and for ourselves to learn more about where these people came from.” 1 3 Link to comment
possibilities September 20, 2022 Share September 20, 2022 Quinta was on Seth Meyers show last night. She talked about how 22 episodes was a lot, so it makes sense that they are going to take trips into places we didn't see in last season, which was shorter. 5 Link to comment

milkyaqua September 26, 2022 Share September 26, 2022 TVLine, Inside Scoop Do you have any fun teasers of what will happen on Abbott Elementary? –B.J. When we spoke with co-showrunners Justin Halpern and Patrick Schumacker, the former effused, “I’m so excited for people to see our Halloween episode. I think it’s one of the best things we’ve ever done. When I think about it, I’m like, ‘Oh, man, people are going to lose their mind about this.'” Schumacker in turn added, “I did not envy our director, Shahrzad Davani, on that episode. It was such a puzzle putting it together with, obviously, everybody in crazy costumes. And there’s more action than one might expect.” 2 Link to comment

Black Knight September 27, 2022 Share September 27, 2022 I'm really glad they're following up on kids from last season. Since they're actually matching a school year to each TV season, the child actors' aging works just fine. 1 7 Link to comment
MicheleinPhilly September 29, 2022 Share September 29, 2022 Quote The award-winning ABC comedy Abbott Elementary is all about shining a spotlight on teachers. It's something near and dear to show creator Quinta Brunson, whose mother was a kindergarten teacher in West Philadelphia for decades. Brunson doesn't just celebrate teachers on screen, she also takes money out of the show's marketing budget to give real-life teachers much-needed money for their classrooms. One of this year's recipients is Linda Graham, a 5th-grade teacher at Dunbar Elementary in North Philadelphia. She's getting $1,000 from the show to fund dream projects in her classroom. https://6abc.com/abbott-elementary-linda-graham-dunbar-north-philadelphia/12276470/ I could not love Quinta more. 😊 12 Link to comment

Really never knew where she came from, but she is amazing for such a young person. I like to hear people discuss their creative process.

These two adorkable educators have been circling each other in an exquisitely excruciating slow burn all year long, with Janine first saddled with loser boyfriend Tariq and Gregory now busy with girlfriend Amber. But we all know these two are perfect for each other — and they seem to know it, too, judging by that steamy grind session on the hookah bar’s dance floor. We want them to get together, don’t get us wrong… but we’re kind of enjoying the wait.
