This week, the first teaser trailer for Abbott Elementary Season 3 was released. The award-winning sitcom, created by and starring Quinta Brunson, will be bringing back all of its series regulars for a 13-episode season, beginning on February 7th. You can check out the full teaser here:
Brunson stars in Abbott Elementary as Janine Teagues, a dedicated teacher in a Philadelphia public elementary school. She’s joined in the main cast by Tyler James Williams, Janelle James, Lisa Ann Walter, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Chris Perfetti, and William Stanford Davis.
While each of the teachers at Abbott have their own storylines heading into Season 3, fans will likely be most interested to see what happens between Janine and Gregory. The two have had a will-they-won’t-they relationship throughout Abbott Elementary‘s first two seasons. While it seemed like they were finally becoming something more at the end of Season 2, another wrench was thrown into the gears.
