Inside the ‘Abbott Elementary’ and ‘It’s Always Sunny’ Crossover: Easter Eggs, Character Pairings and Unleashing Five Sociopaths on the School

And then, for a secondary storyline, the writers realized that both Janine (Brunson) on “Abbott” and Dee (Kaitlin Olson) on “Sunny” went to the University of Pennsylvania — and that this unlikely duo might bond over that.
