A group of dedicated, passionate teachers -- and a slightly tone-deaf principal -- find themselves thrown together in a Philadelphia public school where, despite the odds stacked against them, they are determined to help their students succeed in life. Though these incredible public servants may be outnumbered and underfunded, they love what they do -- even if they don't love the school district's less-than-stellar attitude toward educating children.

Critics Reviews

Lisa Weidenfeld Boston Globe Like any show, “Abbott” occasionally has missteps, but it’s maintained a strong sense of who its characters are and the core of the story it’s telling about them. Dec 6, 2024 Full Review Melanie McFarland Salon.com The fact that Abbott Elementary is willing to wade into this class politics discussion with a hopeful smile on its face and loses none of its glee is an accomplishment. Oct 15, 2024 Full Review Gissane Sophia Lady Geeks Media It’s rare for a comedy to continue delivering one hit season after another, yet Abbott Elementary Season 4 proves that the workplace mockumentary is a gem worth having on our screens for a long, long time. Apr 19, 2025 Full Review Brooke Obie Black Girl Watching Abbott Elementary is a rare gift of a show that has only improved as the series goes on—giving us plenty of opportunities to tear up over its sweetness and cackle at the absurdity of the lovable cast of characters and their daily adventures at school. Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Sam Huang Mediaversity Reviews Abbott Elementary leans into its feel-good credentials without ignoring difficult material. Rated: A Dec 2, 2024 Full Review Kaleena Rivera Pajiba It would seem that, along with not getting much in the way of rest, Brunson has also maintained a firm handle on the show’s quality at a time when it would be easy to let the crew take their collective foot off the gas.

D P Still a cool show. I will be tuned in for Season 5. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/18/25 Full Review Tero H Like other seasons this is one of the best comedy series. No weak episodes in season every week pure joy and laugh. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/26/25 Full Review Esra Y Still going great with some of the funniest episodes of the show. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/25/25 Full Review Eva B Another great season with an amazing cast! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/23/25 Full Review K K I feel like Abbott Elementary just keeps getting better and better. There was a little bit shakiness for me in season 2 and 3, but not a lot, and it wasn't a bad thing. Season 4 is hitting it out the park once again, absolutely love this comedy. It's a character driven gem! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/16/25 Full Review Pedro D Abbott Elementary is an absolute gem of a show. If you've ever set foot in a classroom, especially with young kids, you'll instantly relate to everything about it. I live in Brazil—different country, different culture—but somehow, every single moment still feels incredibly familiar. The characters are so well-written that you can easily see yourself or your colleagues in them. Every school has a "Gregory," a "Janine," or a "Melissa." It’s a mockumentary, but the writing is so sharp and authentic that you sometimes forget it’s not a real documentary. And Quinta Brunson—what a genius. The fact that this show came from her mind just proves her brilliance. Abbott Elementary is hilarious, smart, and refreshingly real. I can only hope it continues for many seasons because this fourth season, in particular, has been absolutely flawless. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/14/25 Full Review Read all reviews
