"Abbott Elementary" Season 3 Is In The Works, So Here's Everything We Know

    School is almost back in session!

    Unless you're living under a rock, you've probably watched or at least heard of Abbott Elementary, the hilarious sitcom created by Quinta Brunson about a group of teachers at a poorly funded elementary school in Philadelphia.

    After two entertaining seasons, and a bunch of awards (including three Golden Globes), there's no question as to why this show got picked up for a third season all the way back in January.

    In case you forgot, Season 2 ended with Gregory and Janine finally sharing their feelings with one another after two seasons of slow burn and will-they-won't-they.

    Janine spent most of the season in a deep personal growth mindset, but still has a ways to go and will likely be doing more in Season 3.

    Janine's not the only one. Ava has also been displaying *some* personal growth this past season, but beloved fans don't have to worry that she'll stop being her hilarious and antagonistic self.

    Gregory and Jacob developed their bromance even further when Gregory let him in on his secret attraction to Janine, and then about their kiss.

    Now that you're all caught up, here's what we know so far about Season 3:

    1. It was recently confirmed the Season 3 will premiere on February 7, 2024. The wait is almost over!

    The WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes are over and a fair deal was reached, but it'll still take some time to write and prepare new episodes.

    2. The plan was for there to be 22 episodes, but that number had to be shortened to 10-15 episodes given the strikes.

    3. The third season will follow a "larger overarching idea" that is "really interesting and [has] never been seen on TV before."

    4. All of the main cast members will be returning for Season 3.

    Quinta Brunson, Tyler James Williams, Lisa Ann Walter, Sheryl Lee Ralph, and Chris Perfetti

    5. It will air on ABC but be available to stream on Hulu the following day.

    6. We can probably expect some intense romantic tension between Janine and Gregory.

    7. The teachers will be up to their usual shenanigans, but hopefully with a fun new twist.

    Are you counting down the days until Season 3 just like me? Let us know in the comments if you have any theories to share while we wait for the Season 3 trailer.
