Abbott Elementary returns from winter break tonight — and the regular crew has got some company. The newest episode, “Volunteers,” will see Abbott’s fellow Philadelphia residents visit for a special event. That’s right, it’s finally time for the Abbott Elementary and It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia crossover! The cast of the long-running FX sitcom — Rob McElhenney, Glenn Howerton, Charlie Day, Danny DeVito and Kaitlin Olson — will potentially be getting schooled by Abbott Elementary’s Quinta Brunson, Tyler James Williams, Janelle James, Chris Perfetti, Lisa Ann Walter, William Stanford Davis and Sheryl Lee Ralph.
“These are two shows that take place in Philadelphia,” star and showrunner Brunson explained on Live with Kelly and Mark. “We take place in West Philadelphia, they take place in South, so it’s just really cool to bring them together. Our city is very diverse and (has) different pockets, but we interact with each other all the time and so this is like a perfect example of that on-screen.”

“I think we get a little wild in the show for them, but they’re handling us pretty well,” DeVito told People. “We had a great time. They’re wonderful people. It’s such an odd mix, so it’s going to be fun.”
