[The following story contains spoilers from Abbott Elementary‘s season three premiere.]

Abbott Elementary is back and, for season three, the hit ABC series did something different.

The Quinta Brunson comedy picked up five months into the school year, only flashing back to the beginning of the year at the show’s central school, in order to sync up with real life.

“Abbott is a show where we try to go by the school calendar,” creator Brunson, who stars as Janine Teagues, explained during a late night visit on Jimmy Kimmel Live! following the show’s season three premiere Wednesday. “We start in September, along with teachers, and we like to stick with that calendar. This year, we had to make some adjustments so we got creative, so to say why we’re starting in February instead of September.”

The delay in Abbott‘s return was due to the months-long production halt caused by the 2023 writers and actors strikes,...

“Abbott Elementary” Season 3 was delayed by five months — known in our world as the 2023 Hollywood strikes, but also known and acknowledged, surprisingly, in the supersized premiere episode, “Career Day.” The explanation? The Abbott Elementary documentary crew got robbed after a teachers’ night out, returning only after they were able to save up the money for new equipment.

The episode, written by Quinta Brunson and directed by Randall Einhorn, opens not during the traditional September start of the school year, but in February — matching the audience timeline and treating them to the show’s first time jump. In February, Janine (Brunson) is working for the school district and barely speaking to Gregory (Tyler James Williams), which instantly invokes major intrigue.

After the cold open, a title card flashes us back to five months earlier, when a changed Ava (Janelle James) assembles the teachers for Development Day thanks to her new education...

Abbott Elementary’s new school year got off to an unexpected start by revealing that one beloved teacher has taken on a different job.

The Season 3 premiere picks up five months later on Career Day, and Janine now works for the school district! To understand how that big change came to be, the episode cuts back to five months ago, when a trio of school district ambassadors (played by The Other Two’s Josh Segarra, Atypical’s Kimia Behpoornia and Never Have I Ever’s Benjamin Norris) visit Abbott for Development Day.

[This story contains spoilers from the third season premiere of Abbott Elementary.]

Major change has come to Abbott Elementary as the show’s lead character, Janine Teagues, played by series creator and Emmy Award-winning actress Quinta Brunson, finds herself outside of the classroom and inside the oft-alluded-to Philadelphia school district at the start of the ABC sitcom’s third season.

“We’re focusing a lot on the district [this season],” co-showrunner Patrick Schumacker tells The Hollywood Reporter. “We’re going to start to explore that world … and Janine is going to see what that type of bureaucracy is in counterpoint to the bureaucracy that she has to deal with at Abbott.”

That plotline is set up in the one-hour season three premiere of Abbott Elementary, which aired at 9 p.m. E.T. on Wednesday. The episode sees the return of series regulars Sheryl Lee Ralph, Lisa Ann Walter, Tyler James Williams, Janelle James, Chris Perfetti and William Stanford Davis — and the introduction of guest stars Josh Segarra,...

The wait is nearly over for the return of our favorite ABC series.

As we near "go-time," ABC has dropped some scintillating official trailers to whet our whistles and sate the thirsty viewers clamoring for a glimpse of their favorites.

The dual strikes severely impacted the television industry and our collective viewing experience.

While we're facing truncated seasons and some upsetting cancelations, excitement abounds with casting choices, long-awaited cliffhangers concluded, milestone episodes, and so much more.

Let's delve into all the upcoming trailers and teasers for the ABC slate!

Abbott Elementary

First, let's take a moment to appreciate and celebrate our girl Quinta Brunson for winning a mother-flipping Emmy!! Unlike what's teased in the trailer for our beloved Janine, we're Not taking up cursing (mainly because you can't start something you've always done).

Emmy-award-winning Quinta Brunson does it again, recapturing that sparkle, magic, and humor of Abbott Elementary, and the trailer teases some endearing times.

Janine and Gregory should start dating at the end of season 3, maintaining the slow burn romance. Season 3 should include more episodes outside the school setting to showcase the teachers' lives. The upcoming episodes could also feature the return of Ayo Edebiri as Janine's sister and the introduction of new dynamics among the characters.

After almost a year of waiting, Abbott Elementary season 3 will finally premiere in early February 2024, and the upcoming episodes should feature everything viewers love about the show and more (including a highly requested rap battle between two characters). The second season of the ABC mockumentary sitcom television series left off with the sad revelation that Janine and Gregory wouldn't get together. The two characters' romance has been teased since the pilot, and even though they confessed their feelings for one another in the season 2 finale, they agreed to continue being friends.

The returning cast of Abbott Elementary...

Season four of Netflix's "Never Have I Ever" may have just dropped but we're already thinking about how we can see Devi and friends again. The Maitreyi Ramakrishnan-led teen dramedy is ending with this final season, as Devi heads off to college after completing her senior year of high school.

Back in 2022, series creator Mindy Kaling was upfront about why she wanted the show to conclude with four seasons. "I'm old-school, so I come from 'The Office,' where that show went on for nine seasons, and '[The] Mindy Project' went on for six seasons, but those were shows that weren't about high school," she told Popsugar at the time. "In the beginning, I thought, 'Oh, I could do this show forever and ever,' but then you see these kids and it's scary how old they look by the end of the season. Then you wait a year to shoot again,...

As the highly anticipated final season of “Never Have I Ever” approaches, cast members Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Richa Moorjani, Poorna Jagannathan, Ramona Young, Darren Barnet, Lee Rodriguez and Jaren Lewison sat down with Et Canada’s Keshia Chanté where they each revealed who the biggest sobber on set was following the show’s final days of filming.

“Ramona, sorry,” exclaimed Jagannathan. “Ramona. She was crying, like when we started shooting season four, like before,” exclaimed Moorjani, 34.

“Ramona. Yeah. I didn’t cry, but I wanted to. I’m not a crier,” chimed in Rodriguez, 23.

Alright, nerds. There’s one season of Mindy Kaling’s “Never Have I Ever” left. Devi Vishwakumar (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan) and her besties Fabiola (Lee Rodriguez) and Eleanor (Ramona Young) will return to Sherman Oaks High School to conquer their senior year with confidence, ready for anything that might come their way, or so they think. Ben Gross (Jaren Lewison) and the other boys Paxton Hall-Yoshida (Darren Barnet) and Trent Harrison (Benjamin Norris) will return to school too in various ways.

Michael Cimino’s special guest appearance as a potential new love interest for Devi will shake up Sherman Oaks, and several other faces either return briefly or join for the final season of the Netflix teen comedy show. The core characters have themselves quite a year ahead, dealing with college admissions and the close of this chapter that brought them all together.

A bit of exciting Never Have I Ever season 4 news is that it has become the rare Netflix series to have an announced and planned ending ahead of its series finale. The beloved teen series stars Maitreyi Ramakrishnan as Devi Vishwakumar, an awkward teenager whose initial goal was to date Sherman Oaks High School’s resident hunk, Paxton Hall-Yoshida (Darren Barnet). The comedy deftly combines Devi's romantic entanglements with her identity as one of the few South Asian American students at her school and her working through her grief over her father's death.

Never Have I Ever has seen Devi through a lot of ups and downs so far. Season 3 began with Devi and Paxton finally in a relationship, though the former couldn’t escape from her insecurities no matter how hard she tried. The latest season ended with Paxton graduating and Devi moving forward with Ben, who she...

Devi Vishwakumar is back for one more round of misadventures, as Netflix has just announced a release date for "Never Have I Ever" season 4. The fourth season of the high school-set comedy is poised to be its last, and while we're not quite ready to say goodbye to these vibrant weirdos and their not-finished-cooking teen brains yet, the final episodes look like a lot of fun.

Mindy Kaling and Lang Fisher's Netflix comedy about a group of high school geeks led by horny, adventure-seeking Devi (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan) has been lauded from its first season for its surprisingly poignant examination of grief and stereotype-bucking Indian-American representation. Across its three seasons, the show has gone to some deep places (the death of Devi's father influences both her best and worst choices) and some deeply funny ones, and while the latest teaser only offers a small taste of what's to come, it...

Exclusive: Jeff Garlin has joined the cast of Netflix‘s Never Have I Ever for the show’s fourth and final season.

Garlin will portray Len, a sweet man who fixes a mean sandwich and who makes Nirmala (Ranjita Chakravarty) reconsider if she really is done with relationships forever.

With a wedding confirmed to take place next season, could Devi Vishwakumar’s (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan) grandmother be the one to walk down the aisle? She is just one of multiple potential brides to consider, however. Devi’s mom Dr. Nalini Vishwakumar (Poorna Jagannathan) has a new love interest coming in this season portrayed by Ivan Hernandez, and her cousin Kamala Nandiwadal has been seriously dating English teacher Manish Kulkarni (Utkarsh Ambudkar) for a hot minute. And that’s before considering wild cards like Eleanor Wong (Ramona Young) and Trent Harrison (Benjamin Norris). The blushing bride will...

If there is one word to summarize “Never Have I Ever,” Season 3, that word would be Trent.

The jock character played by Benjamin Norris and used in early seasons as comic relief becomes a major player in Season 3, dating Eleanor (Ramona Young), standing by best friend Paxton (Darren Barnet), and continuing to bring the laughs wherever he goes.

It’s not the only time Norris has played a lovable weirdo. After debuting Trent in “Never Have I Ever” Season 1, he had an arc in the final season of “Superstore” as Sandra’s (Kaliko Kauahi) adult adoptee and proud shark owner, Tony.

“I love those characters that people are gonna kind of glance twice at and laugh and be like, ‘Man, what an interesting guy,'” Norris told IndieWire in a phone interview. “These are kind of the roles that are right in my wheelhouse.”

With Ben seemingly having moved on with Aneesa (Megan Suri), Devi and Paxton finally make their secret relationship official and go public.

Ben is convinced Devi always preferred Paxton over him and things were finally as they should be until Eleanor (Ramona Young) drops a bomb—Devi had real feelings for Ben and had initially picked him over Paxton.

Boom.

What this surely means for Season 3 is more drama with the triangle as well as with poor Aneesa who just wants to live her best life. But there’s also a new teen joining the...
