Abbott Elementary Renewed for Season 2; Girls5eva Returns May 5 on Peacock

ABC has renewed Abbott Elementary for a second season for 2022-23. Principal Ava announced it herself:
Faculty and Students (aka My Fans) –
The camera crew I hared to showcase all that I've made happen at our beautiful school thinks I'm a star. I mean, are we surprised? No we’re not :) With that said, it is with great pleasure that I share they'll be returning for the 2022-2023 school year! That's right - Abbott Elementary Season Two is coming to a screen near you.
Despite my being a natural in front of the camera, these things don't come for free, and my staff is having trouble seeing all of my unleashed potential! Something about needing supplies? Anywho, I could use your help getting them (Janine) off my back. If you’re interested in supporting them and our community of young mind shapers, please visit DonorsChoose.org.
I also welcome spa credits and gift cards over $100 on the heels of this thrilling announcement. I also have all major money transer apps if you wanna go that route.
Love, Light, and all of that stuff,
Principal Ava Coleman
You won't have to wait until season two because Abbott Elementary returns with all-new episodes next Tuesday (March 22), as season one is still going on! At least four episodes remain to air.
