In what seemed like a fandom “What If” scenario a while back, featuring two very different but brilliant comedies, we are indeed getting an Abbott Elementary crossover episode with “It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia”.

It’s Disneyland for sitcom lovers and I can’t wait to watch all of these great characters meet each other.

But here are some interactions I’m hoping we’ll see in the Abbott/Always Sunny episode that will deal with the gentrification storyline of the new golf course.

The Janine and Charlie team-up: It sounds like we’re getting this one and that’s great because Janine and Charlie are the most obvious protagonists on each show. Plus, they’re both pretty kind and ridiculous people. This team up writes itself.

Principal Ava vs. Sweet Dee: Janelle James and Kaitlin Olson? Are you kidding me? And it needs to be a confrontation before the ultimate team up. They’re both so good.

A Frank Reynolds and Mr. Johnson reunion: Wouldn’t it be great if they kind of already knew each other? Both of these laugh per minute actors already kind of live an alternate life to the main storylines on each show. It wouldn’t be much of a stretch to have them already be friends or acquaintances.

Put Melissa or Jacob in the “Sunny” bloodline: We’re always hearing Melissa talk about her shady family in passing on the show. It would be so awesome if she turned out to be Frank’s niece or even a cousin to one of the others. And it could be even funnier if you threw Jacob in that same position as a true outsider in the bizarre Reynolds family.

I can’t wait. There is a lot of (High) potential here. And hopefully, its successful and other shows will try it too. There was a time when this was a more common occurrence. I’d love to see that again.
