When Does Abbott Elementary Season 5 Episode 7 Drop? Release Date, Time, and Where to Watch

Abbott Elementary is back with another week of chaos, and yes, we finally have the date and time for Season 5, Episode 7. If you watched the phone-free experiment last week, you already know the students handled it better than the adults, which tracks. Here is what to know before the next one hits.

Previously on Abbott: the phone detox

Episode 6, titled 'No Phones,' put the whole school on a one-day digital ban after Emily, a rep from the district, announced a contest: make it through the day without mobile phones and win a pizza party. The kids actually leaned into it. The grown-ups... not so much. Predictably, that gap turned into a bunch of awkward, very funny moments.

When and where to watch Episode 7

Season 5, Episode 7 arrives Wednesday, December 3, 2025. It goes live at:

• 5:30 p.m. PT
• 8:30 p.m. ET

You can stream it on Hulu. The service is Disney-owned and one of the big U.S. platforms, with Emmy magnets like The Handmaid's Tale, The Bear, and Shogun in the mix. Plans come in both ad-supported and ad-free flavors, and you get unlimited access to the library either way.

What this show is, in case you somehow missed it

Abbott Elementary is a workplace comedy about a crew of committed teachers and their very out-of-touch principal holding it down at a public school in Philadelphia. They are underfunded, outnumbered, and dealing with a school district that does not exactly make their lives easier. They stay anyway, because they care about the kids and the work, even when the system around them is not helping.
