What do people want? Episodes, and lots of them! Quinta Brunson said Abbott Elementary School fans have been vocal about their desires (aside from her and Gregory kissing). “I’ve noticed that viewers are demanding more episodes of TV shows,” she said at the D23 Expo. Abbott intends to deliver. Production on the show returns for Season 4 on Monday.

More episodes means more opportunities for comedy. Co-executive producer Brian Rubenstein promised more holiday episodes, and executive producer Randall Einhorn promised more looks at teachers outside of work hours. “We might go look at someone’s apartment,” he joked. “I can’t wait to see what This brings.” Whose apartment do we see next? Please let it be Jacob’s. Does he have a shoe wall like Desus’? We just have to know.

Speaking of Jacob, the cast and crew promised more tender moments between him and Melissa. Lisa Ann Walter said she and Jacob’s actor Chris Perfetti prepared for the panel together. ‘He took my corset off tightshe said. Perfetti added that Walter fed him and gave him coffee. “It’s kind of like my first marriage,” Walter said, “except he’s gay.”
