Abbott Elementary Season 4 knows how to make people laugh so hard they have to hit pause and catch their breath. This year showed that these teachers still have plenty of wild moments left in them. Ava will find any excuse to avoid real work and Gregory always ends up stuck in some mess he never asked for. In one episode, Jacob somehow turned a normal karaoke night into his own rock concert.

Janine and Gregory finally stopped dancing around each other and gave people what they wanted. Every episode threw something new at the teachers who already deal with budget cuts and clueless parents every single day. Sweet Cheeks the guinea pig escaped and turned the school upside down. Barbara shocked everyone when she started a dance during a PTA meeting that nobody saw coming.

The field trip to the museum gave the older kids a chance to roast their own teachers. The golf course bribes backfired in the biggest way possible and put Ava’s job on the line. Each of these moments hit people in different ways but all of them made this season stand out. Abbott Elementary Season 4 worked because it let the teachers be as messy as they needed to be.
