ABC Renews 'Abbott Elementary' for Season 6
ABC has just announced that Abbott Elementary is renewed for the 2026-2027 TV season!
The fan favorite comedy series is currently airing its fifth season on the network, and season six is coming in the Fall.
The ABC series has been on the air since December 2021, and it’s quickly become a fan-favorite.
This renewal must come as a relief for fans, who grew worried when star Quinta Brunson admitted the show would not last forever.
“I have cast members who would love to pursue other projects, and our show is very time-consuming. We shoot about seven months out of the year. That can stop people from being able to do a lot of other things,” she told Bustle last year.
One year prior, she said to Elle: “When I first started, I was like, ‘Yeah, 10 seasons.’ Now I’m like, ‘We’ll see about that.’ That would be a blessing. But also, this is a lot of work. I want to make sure, no matter what, I get to worry not about the numbers or the money, but what kind of story we are telling and feeling when it’s time for the story to come to a close.”
Unfortunately, several fan favorite TV shows were canceled this year already.
