Abbott Elementary
Comedy22 min per episode
Quinta Brunson is Janine Teagues, an optimistic teacher at an underfunded Philadelphia public school where the staff keeps showing up for students despite a district that never seems to show up for them. The teachers around her are just as committed, while Janelle James's slightly tone-deaf principal, Ava Coleman, is often operating on a very different wavelength. Framed as a mockumentary, the series follows classroom mishaps, staff-room friction, and the daily improvising it takes to keep Abbott Elementary running.
