The hit ABC sitcom is shot in the now-classic 'mockumentary' style of 'The Office' and 'Parks and Recreation.'
We love a workplace comedy and the latest one taking over the internet is"Abbot Elementary" on ABC.
The hit show is shot in the now-classic"mockumentary" style that will bring longtime sitcom viewers back to the days of"The Office" and"Parks and Recreation." The pilot opens with a documentary crew following a group of dedicated teachers in an underfunded Philadelphia school, Abbott Elementary.Former Buzzfeed video star Quinta Brunson stars as a young second-grade teacher Janine Teagues. Janine and history teacher Jacob Hill, played by Chris Perfetti, are the two teachers who made it past their first year working for the school, she explains, and that trauma has somewhat bonded them.
Janine looks up to experienced kindergarten teacher Barbara Howard, played by Sheryl Lee Ralph, and at one point accidentally calls her “mom.” Barbara gets along with another senior teacher, the fast-talking Melissa Schemmenti, played by Lisa Ann Walter. Melissa teaches second grade as well and “has a guy” for just about everything, regardless of the legality of it.A teacher is fired in the first episode and they bring in substitute teacher Gregory Eddie, played by Tyler James Williams.
Brunson, who is also the show creator, has said in previous interviews that she was inspired by her own upbringing in the West Philadelphia school system and her mother, who was a kindergarten teacher.
