Abbott Elementary takes this popular format into a prototype of the inner-city school to realise the motivations of its cast of characters more fully, with hilarious results. With This is Spinal Tap, Rob Reiner invented it for modern pop culture in the UK; Canadian sitcom Trailer Park Boys introduced it to mainstream consciousness further West; and the American version of The Office perfected it. It has resonated with the world in a way that I couldn’t even imagine it would have—but let’s be real, I did imagine; that’s why I sold it to you (i.e., Disney).”
