As it has done <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/tv\/tv-news\/abbott-elementary-renewed-season-5-abc-1236113932\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">every season<\/a> for the show thus far, the network picked up Abbott Elementary well ahead of the end of its season. The show is the first scripted renewal for ABC so far this season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tAbbott Elementary continues to perform solidly for ABC and Disney\u2019s streaming services Hulu and Disney+. The show is the top comedy on TV this season among adults 18-49, based on seven days of multi-platform viewing; in January, the show\u2019s four episodes scored a 1.83 rating (equivalent to about 2.5 million people in that age range) in the key ad sales demographic. That\u2019s almost times what the series drew for its initial on-air showing for the month. Abbott averaged 6.16 million total viewers per episode in January after a week of cross-platform viewing.   <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tQuinta Brunson created and stars in the mockumentary about the teachers at a perpetually underfunded Philadelphia elementary school. Tyler James Williams, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Chris Perfetti, Lisa Ann Walter, Janelle James and William Stanford Davis also star.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tWarner Bros. Television and 20th Television produce Abbott Elementary. Brunson executive produces with Justin Halpern and Patrick Schumacker via their Delicious Non-Sequitur Productions, Randall Einhorn and Brian Rubenstein.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tThe show is one of three half-hour comedies ABC is airing this season, alongside Shifting Gears (which completed its season in early February) and the revival of Scrubs. Decisions on the other two are yet to come, but Shifting Gears drew comparable ratings numbers to its first season and Scrubs, which premiered Feb. 25, has already seen its debut episode grow to more than 11 million viewers across all platforms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"School will remain in session at Abbott Elementary.
