by

As a die-hard fan of both Abbott Elementary and It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, I can hardly contain my excitement for this upcoming crossover episode! Growing up in Philly, I always thought it was only a matter of time before these two iconic shows crossed paths. The idea that these two worlds, West and South Philly, could collide is nothing short of mind-blowing!

ABC unveiled a sneak peek of the much-awaited cross-over episode between Abbott Elementary and It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, set to be broadcast in just two weeks.

What do we know about the upcoming Abbott Elementary crossover?

In the upcoming fourth season of “Always Sunny,” slated for January 8, 2025, the gang from Paddy’s Pub is set to cross paths with teachers from Abbott Elementary. The episode titled “Volunteers” suggests that our characters might be lending a hand at the school this time around.

Check out the batch of images from the crossover episode below:

Back in the early days of this year, I had a chat with The Hollywood Reporter, and Quinta Brunson, the shining star of Abbott Elementary, shared some intriguing insights. She mentioned that teaming up for a crossover episode with Always Sunny felt like a match made in heaven right from the get-go.

Rob McElhenney was shown something online that someone shared with him, suggesting it could be a humorous episode of It’s Always Sunny, to which he responded, “I believe it would be excellent for an Abbott episode.” This comment initiated conversation, and while the episode has no connection to the original content, it led to discussions. In her own words, she admits having a fondness for Rob. They share similarities as writers, creators, comedy enthusiasts, and Philly natives. Their instant connection sparked extensive conversations, and they eventually realized they could collaborate. Since they both fall under the Disney umbrella, they began exploring ways to make this collaboration possible.

In simpler terms, this passage describes a collaboration between two groups, one from South Philly and another from West Philly, in creating a TV show (Abbott). The collaboration felt natural because they were geographically close, and when the opportunity presented itself, both teams eagerly agreed to work together. The teams involved, which include Sunny, Charlie, and Rob, have been fantastic collaborators, bringing fresh ideas to the project while sharing similar goals of creating comedy. Working with like-minded individuals has made the entire process enjoyable and magical.
