Primaria Abbott

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.

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.

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.

Abbott Elementary. This show is great. I really enjoy the mockumentary style that it has. All the characters are funny, and while some can be annoying sometimes, there are no bad characters. This show makes me actually like school, as it shows how all these teachers find warmth at their school and really make it seem like home. The show is super funny, especially the first three seasons. Can't say too much about the fourth yet. This is what I would call a "comfort show" as I can just sit down and relax while watching it and have a good time. And even better, the whole family can watch it! It's not rated TV-MA! Defenitly recommend.

It takes an episode or two to warm up but I promise you, this show is smart and funny. If you loved The Office or Parks and Rec, this one is definitely for you. And can I take a second to give Mrs. SLR her flowers? My gosh she is still absolutely stunning and obviously very talented. I look forward to each new episode. Please don't cancel this show.
