Get ready, class! The doors to Abbott Elementary are officially swinging open for a fifth season! In a move that surprised absolutely no one, ABC gave the Emmy-winning sitcom an early renewal back in February 2024. While the network hasn't announced a specific premiere date just yet, the best news is that Abbott is confirmed to be part of ABC's Fall 2024 schedule. This means we can expect to see Janine, Gregory, and the whole hilarious crew back on our screens much sooner than last year, likely returning in late September or early October 2024.
After the strike-delayed fourth season had a later-than-usual start, this return to a traditional fall premiere is a fantastic sign that things are back on track. The series is set to reclaim its coveted Wednesday night time slot, bringing the laughs back to the start of the school year where they belong. Don't get caught tardy for the new season!
