abbot elementary filled the hole in our hearts that shows how Parks and recreation areas as well as Office previously completed. It’s a workplace mockumentary that gives us characters that are far from perfect, but we fell in love with them anyway. These teachers try hard and are sure that they are not very good at their job, but it is clear that they care. That’s why whenever Janine does something that might be “annoying” or overbearing to other characters on the show, we as viewers want her to succeed because we know what it’s like when a teacher wants the best for their students.
abbot elementary is getting the praise it deserves and if that means more Mr. Johnson in the future, then that’s better for all of us! Take a look at Mr. Johnson from the first season below:
