Abbott Elementary Plot and Cast

There haven’t been many details released about the storylines coming up in season 2. However, fans should be thrilled to learn that Quinta Brunson has previously told Elle that she has a plan for as many as nine seasons of Abbott Elementary.

So that doesn’t sound like she’ll run out of material for the show anytime soon. There haven’t been many details released about the storylines coming up in season 2.

Now if we had to guess what’s coming up in the new season, we’d say Janine is going to be on a journey of self-discovery. After breaking up with her longtime boyfriend Tariq, she’s free to explore herself as a single woman and to date.

While for many viewers a breakup with Tariq should mean she’s free to be with her “friend” Gregory, now that Gregory is dating Barbara’s daughter Taylor, the romance between the two teachers looks like it will again be stalled.
But let’s face it, sitcom romances between main characters can take a while to manifest. For example, it took Jim and Pam on The Office practically four seasons before they finally started dating.

It looks like the entire Season 1 cast is expected to return for the second season including Janelle James. Rounding out the main cast are Tyler James Williams, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Lisa Ann Walter, and Chris Perfetti.

Abbott Elementary Season 2 Release Date

On July 21, 2022, ABC ordered the second season of 22 episodes, giving it a full-season order. The series Abbott Elementary Season 2 is set to premiere on September 21, 2022.

In The US, the show airs on ABC. In several countries in Europe such as the UK, France, Italy and Germany, and Australia the show was released on Disney+.
