On the heels of its supersized season three premiere, ABC has renewed hit comedy series “Abbott Elementary,” from Warner Bros. Television and 20th Television, for a fourth season. It was announced today by “Abbott”’s own Mr. Johnson (William Stanford Davis) at the 2024 Winter Television Critics Association Press Tour.
Last season, “Abbott Elementary” delivered a 3.56 rating in Adults 18-49 after 35 days of viewing across platforms, marking the strongest season average for an ABC comedy since the 2019-2020 season and ranking as ABC’s No. 1 multiplatform series.
Season three is now airing WEDNESDAYS (9:00-9:32 p.m. EST) on ABC and streams next day on Hulu. In next week’s episode, “Gregory’s Garden Goofballs,” Gregory is hesitant when kids start hanging out in his classroom at lunch, looking to him for advice as the “cool teacher.” Meanwhile, Barbara is shocked to find Tariq is dating the mother of one of her students. Janine and Jacob try to hire an ASL interpreter for a student in Jacob’s classroom.
