ABC’s “Abbott Elementary” is undoubtedly one of the biggest comedy series to air in the past years and we’re not surprised!

The talented cast and amazing storylines really stands out weekly. Abbott Elementary then quickly became an Emmy winning series.

“Abbott Elementary,” Quinta Brunson’s sitcom set in a Philly public school, earned the biggest audience for an ABC comedy in three years during its second season.

Based on 35-day, multi-platform ratings, “Abbott Elementary” averaged 9.1 million viewers per episode, according to THR. This is the best viewership for an ABC comedy since “Modern Family” and “The Conners” during the 2019-2020 season. “Abbott Elementary” also earned a 3.57 rating among adults 18 through 49 years old, which is the best for any series on ABC this season.

In its second season, “Abbott Elementary” grew by 12 percent in total viewers, and was up by 30 percent in the 18 to 49 demographic. Streaming, along with viewing outside the seven-day window of the episodes’ premiere dates, accounts for about 57 percent of the sitcom’s total audience.

Congratulations to the cast and crew!

Abbott Elementary stars series creator Quinta Brunson, as well as Tyler James Williams, Janelle James, Chris Perfetti, Lisa Ann Walter, Sheryl Lee Ralph, and William Stanford Davis. The story follows a group of dedicated, passionate teachers (as well as a slightly tone-deaf principal) as they navigate the Philadelphia public school system. Despite the odds stacked against them, the staff at Willard R. Abbott Public School is determined to help their students succeed in life. Though these 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. The teachers include Janine Teagues (Brunson), Gregory Eddie (Williams), Melissa Schemmenti (Walter), Jacob Hill (Perfetti), and Barbara Howard (Ralph). Ava Coleman (James) is the school’s inept principal, and Mr. Johnson (Davis) is the eccentric janitor.
