Quick catch-up: last episode
Season 5 Episode 3, titled 'Ballgame,' pulled the Abbott crew into a Teachers' Appreciation Night at a Philadelphia Phillies game. Janine, who is not exactly a baseball person, initially tapped out. She eventually tagged along anyway, and, in classic Abbott fashion, things did not go the way anyone expected.
What the show is about
Abbott Elementary is a workplace comedy set in a Philadelphia public school, following a group of deeply committed teachers and their not-always-on-the-same-page principal. The staff is underfunded, outnumbered, and frequently battling the system, but they keep showing up to give their students a shot at something better. It is heartfelt, chaotic, and very easy to root for.
