Does the 'Abbott Elementary' Cast Really Know Each Other? | Vanity Fair

[@user-qb5dd6lq2p]

Sheryl is the glamorous strict auntie and Lisa is the glamorous wild auntie

[@julioagua]

So, Hilda and Zelda?

[@mars_mayday]

glamorous auntie wives

​@dd yk the racists would cry & seethe

[@melyme1409]

Yesss and the Shades❤

[@daking901]

Janelle's absence is very fitting for the show. Ava would never be caught hanging out with her co-workers. She's probably taking an Uber black to a Lil Uzi Vert show

[@bloopbloopbloopbloopbloop]

lololol

[@JAZZnMOTION]

😂😂😂😂

[@Oxymoric]

That man would never be caught in the daytime !

[@boknowsx]

To know Quinta went from being a meme to a household name in network television makes me feel proud like I know her personally. She deserves all of the love & success that the world has to give

[@cunfusion]

righttt i cried watching the first episode, i was so proud of her

[@yelayu8457]

*She* got moneeeeyy, now! 😂

[@LaurieZerumsky]

One hundred thousand percent agree. I feel like my baby cousin made it!

[@Korecarnation]

When was she a meme?

[@nycgirltee]

She was also on Buzzfeed for some time sis been working

[@Ari_elf95]

Lisa’s fashion is IMPECCABLE

[@esahc]

She looks like the cool aunt that’ll slide you a glass of wine

[@gloss6969]

very fran fine

[@kellygreengables3936]

I saw her do an interview with Sherri Shepherd and omg Lisa's hair and makeup were stunning. And even though it was a Zoom interview, she had on Louboutins. IDK if it's her, a stylist, or a both but she looks always looks amazing.

[@nikkichehrazi]

Elizabeth James dressed her

[@taradc6037]

@@nikkichehrazi aww that reference ❤️❤️

[@boknowsx]

Sheryl is like a walking history book and I love that for her 😂 She can’t answer a question without giving a backstory to match and that makes it so much better

[@TexasT2009]

It also shows what a good and attentive friend she is to everyone. What a cool lady.

[@arimackin]

She’s so funny😫

[@hdmicable1337]

Shows why she graduated early

[@gemmapecorinigoodall9133]

Lisa being dressed like Meredith Blake is something I didn't know I needed

[@SuburbanZulu]

It's brilliant, really.

[@TeamObrien1]

This was my first thought!

[@denaziratizol7711]

YESSS

[@nyla1038]

she looks freaking amazingggg, especially with those shades! - all of them look great actually.

[@taradc6037]

Funny, they actually became close friends in real life after Parent Trap! Her fashion may just be influenced by Meredith Blake😄

[@emmabennet888]

As a group of actors, this is hands down my favourite ensemble cast. I don't think I've ever seen a cast of actors in an interview get along so well together while also having so much respect for one another.

[@licialee283]

I do love them but the Ted lasso cast definitely gives off these very vibes

[@nora_ray]

“I go to class, and complete the task!” SHERYL YOU GEM 💎✨💗

[@akow8]

this cast is just so perfect. you can really see their characters with their personalities

[@Feliciatanktop]

Sheryl calling it the smart bar is wild 😭 I can’t imagine anyone else playing Barbara

[@akow8]

@@Feliciatanktop SAME HERE

[@LarissaTZuhoski]

I hope they incorporate Lisa's ballroom dancing and William's musical background into the show at some point!

[@licialee283]

Quinta & the writers room hope y’all listening bc we’d love to see it

[@delilahbynum7882]

I was thinking this too!!!

[@mirandaharlow3719]

"Here you go baby, you need this" I love Sheryl and her mother/teacher energy😭

[@wowwnayy338]

The way Sheryl said "noooo" after Lisa guessed Prosecco lmaooo

[@eliancontreras678]

I can see Quinta already writing an episode for season 3 of Mr Johnson in a band LMAO

[@Fraxinus_a]

Yes, and I can't wait to see it. 😍

[@Pal3sa]

I love Sheryl in this. The excitement, the joy 😂😂😂 her relationship with Chris. It's so sweet. I love this cast.

[@mirandaharlow3719]

Her and Chris are my favorite duo!

[@ashleycadet1578]

Lisa took her glasses off the same way she did in Parent Trap 🥺

[@shadyshandalear]

That hit me right in the nostalgia! Chessy was everything 😭😍😂

[@Idontwannaknowu23]

“I KNEW you were in a band.” 😂😂😂

[@ouidsoul]

can we talk about quintas outfits like yesss

[@shelbyerichard]

SO CUTE

[@CreatedbyZyaire]

Sheryl Lee Ralph is living history! A treasure in human form.

[@MIAWaveGod]

Youngest women to graduate at her college is insaneeeee . Props to her, I had to stop the vid and do research

[@gothgirlglittercrust7118]

quinta is sooo pretty, she's really in her it girl era

[@kellygreengables3936]

I love the mix of seasoned actors like Sheryl and Lisa with lesser knowns and then with people like Quinta and Tyler who have been out of the spotlight for a little bit but are regaining popularity. Such a sweet cast and show. I really hope Abbott Elementary goes the distance!

[@naijaval01]

Their stylists… 10/10✨

[@289dancer]

I like William. He sounds like a smooth jazz musician

[@helentrxn]

i like how they all saying their answers and not taking time to write it down 😂

[@willcookmakeup]

I love how full glam they all are. Such a contrast to their characters. It's so so cool to see Quinta on this journey after she came into our lives in the OG buzzfeed days

[@l33sah]

Lisa coming in with fashion like a true Lisa does! They all looked fabulous 🤩

[@kikikierra]

I love this cast so much. As someone who wants to be an educator AND a future actress, this show comforts me so damn much. I love their work.

[@mirandaharlow3719]

I want to be a teacher too, and this show reminds me of my favorite teachers I want to be like:)

[@rubyrider7902]

Flyest cast in the biz, they all look amazing. Lisa rocking the sunglasses indoors why? BECAUSE SHE CAN!

[@shadyshandalear]

Giving Meredith Blake shoulder pads, but the Chessy sunglasses vibes. A true icon! 😂😍😭 lololol

[@paulalapoderosa6762]

Literally and then she’s glowing underneath ugh

[@EuiHwanP]

Kristin Chenoweth NEEDS to guest star!

[@christina.kleman]

She could come in for a school musical episode lol

[@r.e.m.outsold]

right? considering she's also starred in her own mockumentary, trial and error, and KILLED it !!

[@jazzylew7627]

Ohhhhhh, crazy mother!! That'd be PERFECT (if they haven't already done it)

[@tHeoNlyoNeHeTruLyLoVeD]

Sheryl: a barista… Lisa: No, Wait! Chris: STARBUCKS BARISTA Lisa: HOLD ON! SHUT UP. literally the most iconic moment 😂

[@toussaintderby6806]

I knew it was “Sweet baby Jesus and the grown one too!!!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jackyava]

I literally love Quinta, and seen her grow so much it’s so amazing

[@plantahari]

but she ain't grown an inch though. ok i will leave.

[@Iyahh_]

I can’t describe how much I love this cast. they are sweet, talented and hard working ppl who genuinely love their job!

[@Umadataninternetstranger22]

When Lisa said he was in the temptations. I lost it 😂😂😂

[@latiam]

Sheryl is giving the kid in class that naturally attracts more attention and praise, who everyone else is secretly (but noticeably) trying to neutralize... 😭🤣 Some people are just born to stand out. 🤩

[@gabelogan5877]

It's so nice to finally have a comedy that's actually a comedy. A comedy that's actually funny with lol killer lines

[@h-shmoneyyy7677]

The fact that Lisa’s voice is the same as in the show is making my DAYYYYYY 😂😂

[@AllGreyEverything]

Sheryl is such a teacher! As soon as she sits in that chair, class begins.

[@moonspade]

LOL Sheryl "No" after Lisa said she can talk dirty if its comedy love the cast so muchh

[@shadyshandalear]

Literally was searching for this comment 😂😂😂

[@n1ss13]

I love this cast so much. You can tell they really enjoy being around each other. 🥰

[@jonahgilmore2981]

Lisa is a whole vibe. "When did you get drunk and sleep through first period?"

[@wizzer101]

Sooo umm I think Kristen Chenoweth has to guest star on Abbot Elementary! She could be the “Say no to drugs” or “motivational” guest speaker with a wild crazy story

[@alexiacolette9994]

“Get into class, complete the task.” Ms. Sheryl and I would get along!

[@Feliciatanktop]

I love that the actors are just like their characters

[@kortnixo]

LMAO Chris saying 10 10 10s across the board 🤣🤣🤣

[@HouseMDaddict]

"I don't even know this one" Lisa's response to "what's your secret talent?" 🤣

[@sneakymama]

this show is one of the best on TV today, and these actors make it so. this clip was a delight - and I'm not surprised that Sheryl Lee Ralph won 🥰😍

[@liberianaquarius3912]

Sheryl calling it the smart bar is perfect 😂

[@paolacolon8754]

“im only 30 now darling” 😂

[@peeter8488]

you can tell how well they know each other by the first 30 seconds of dialogue i love this show

[@nkhan4]

I could just sit and listen to all the stories Sheryl Lee Ralph has, she's so eloquent and mesmerizing.

[@kyibobpeb]

I've loved Lisa Ann Walter since The Parent Trap!!

[@shadyshandalear]

Lisa out here rocking Meredith Blake shoulder pads, with Chessy chill vibes…a true icon!!! 😎 Love to see it 😂 ❤ 👏🏾

[@GymnasticChickz]

Lisa is such an icon omg

[@DiorNdiaye]

3:11 that is textbook Janine😭

[@s.p246]

Lisa giving off First Wives Club vibe! hahaha love it!

[@user-kx6fw8ub9g]

The casting is impeccable. It’s as if Abbott is a show about what if these celebrities were teachers in a public elementary school cuz their characters fit their personalities really well.

[@finsfables]

Obsessed with Sheryl

[@tintin3_3]

I love this show and cast so much, its so heartwarming. I hope they make a lot of seasons for this one. ❤

Chris perfetti is so cute I can’t 😍

[@happyhairgirls]

The House of Representatives is a great name for a band.

[@CorettaJG]

The rap group Cross Movements had a record called House of Representatives. Great name.

[@traceycamille]

I absolutely love this show and cast 😍💗

[@thethirdcrouch]

sheryl is a really good storyteller

[@KamiePhresh]

Funny cause I shouted out Kevin Hart as Quinta’s height twin 😂

[@10293]

I said Linda Hunt, maybe that was a bit harsh lol

[@annemacleod1421]

What a lovely bunch of people…no competing egos, just good ole’ camaraderie. The set must be full of laughs. 🇳🇿🇳🇿NZ

[@nat2501]

Def missing Tyler in these, hope he can join them for some future vids!

7:21 DANNY DAVEITO

There has to be a musical episode for Abbott Elementary

[@ShaynaReneeStyle]

I hope someone these things make it into an episode. Definitely the band & ballroom dancing

[@JeMangeLaPoubelle]

Quinta elevating that wardrobe!

[@courtney-ray]

Sheryl’s “no” to Lisa saying she could cuss if it was comedy was 💯 Barbara vibes! 😄

[@bumblebeebrass164]

This show makes me wanna be a teacher so bad (but I don’t do it cause the pay sucks LOL)

What a great back story for Mr Johnson, amidst his other endeavors he was also in a band..."interesting" lol

[@sydneycastro1896]

They all look so good!!!awww

[@zwbonbons8]

no one gonna point out the prolonged look of genuinely loving concern on sheryls face when everyone said “cigar smoking” for william 😂😂😂

[@alanaandrade1896]

6:40 literally the same scene when Barbara said “smart bar” and Jacob was like “genius bar”

[@YonekuniKyuhyun]

but Chris using the iconic "i'll be the judge of that"

[@uniquelyshellz]

Yall so funny, and I love Abbott Elementary show, You guys rock.

[@GenesisCamille]

Just started watching and I’m in love with this feel good show! ❤❤❤ I used to be afraid of Sheryl when she played Brandy’s mom in Moesha 😅 the mother I needed.

[@taissaoliveira]

I'm so obsessed with this show, everybody is hilarious on their own way. Plus Miss Lisa looks expensive wow 🤌🏾
