Primaria Abbott

This show is spot on for the experiences that I had as an elementary school teacher. Funny lines that are also true which is a bit sad but that's the reality of teaching there.

This is like the Office or Brooklyn 99 but with an elementary school as the primary focus. Abbott Elementary is really not that far off from reality, but with a jolt of comedy and wholesome moments thrown in. I find myself very connected to this show given that I am a teacher. I really hope this show goes on for a long time.

Loved everything about it. Had some really lol moments as well.

I like the gentle humor and the way we gradually get to know each character.

Looking forward to season 2.

The child actors are good too and so cute!

Update: Season 2 was great! Looking forward to the next season! I literally want to know what will happen next!

At first I didn't like the principal character, but after a couple exposited, I love her character too!

Ever since Parks and Recreation ended, I've been craving a worthy successor. Abbott Elementary is that successor.

It ticks all the boxes:

Relatable, likeable characters Brilliant sense of humour and self deprecation Shaky camera work Touches on real world issues

I'm only halfway through season one, but managed to get into it immediately. Was immensely delighted when I looked it up on IMDB to discover a further 3 more season.

The lead character Janine Teagues is an uncanny substitute for Leslie Knope, with strong passionate convictions, wanting the best for her pupils. While Jacob Hill, reminiscent of Tom Haverford, the lovable clown who wants to be seen as cool and down with the kids!

But aside from those similarities, Abbott Elementary with its obvious flaws and quirks clearly distinguishes itself as a great comedy in its own right.

It's a serviceable pilot to set up the series with a likable lead in Quinta Brunson's Janine Teagues. Brunson is also the show's creator and penned the pilot. Particularly liked the joke about "Baby Shark" being the "Back That Azz Up" for young children. Look forward to seeing where it goes from here.
