Kicking off Jan. 8 with 'Abbott Elementary', Quinta Brunson and Rob McElhenney shared details of the 'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' crossover.

Quinta Brunson and Rob McElhenney recently explained how the “authenticity still remains” with both of their shows in the upcoming crossover event, kicking off Wednesday, Jan. 8 on ABC with a new episode of Abbott Elementary, and which character they had to “keep away from the children.” Elsewhere in the interview, McElhenney and Brunson revealed how they were able to adjust the shows’ tones to match each other, whether it’s Sunny ‘s crude adult humor or Abbott ‘s lighthearted mockumentary about an elementary school.
