![]() ![]() SCOTT: There’s something about “Abbott” that’s a great mixture of these razorsharp jokes and a little subversion. You’re in “Party Down.”īRUNSON: I am, and I was so excited to be there. SCOTT: But that was announced, right? We can say it - you’re guest starring on “Party Down.”īRUNSON: I don’t think that was announced. I felt like a little kid, like I get to go be someone else today. After doing Janine for months straight on “Abbott,” I remember getting so excited to come do another thing in a way that almost felt juvenile. Right, this is different.” And having to shift a little bit.īRUNSON: That’s exciting, I think, as an actor. I mean, I remember going and doing something dramatic for the first time after doing “Parks” for a while, and it was like, “Oh yeah. I didn’t want to screw any of them up I wanted them to work. “Parks and Rec” felt like a risk, where you almost couldn’t believe you were seeing this on network.

QUINTA BRUNSON: Yay! That’s my favorite thing to hear about it, by the way: family appointment viewing. And we can’t watch it unless all four of us are there. My family and I - we go through phases of watching a show together. ADAM SCOTT: “Abbott Elementary” is your show.
