“Abbott Elementary” creator and actress Quinta Brunson reunited with a child actor who was featured on Brunson’s first web series on the most recent episode of ABC’s hit, Philadelphia-set sitcom.
“Worked with Kayden 5 years ago. She was on my first webseries,” Brunson tweeted Saturday. “When she auditioned for Abbott (and killed it) I remembered her sweet face right away. Wild how tall we have both gotten.”

At a time when climate change is ravaging Earth and real-life interest in space organizations from NASA to SpaceX has been renewed, there is no shortage of television shows delivering interesting and informative takes on such travel. But while series such as Disney Plus’ “The Right Stuff” goes for the nostalgia play and Netflix’s “Away” contemplates the sacrifice made to leave family behind, it is Nickelodeon’s “The Astronauts” that delivers the truly unique picture of unequipped, untrained children accidentally being launched into space, now thrust together as a makeshift team to survive.
“We are being presented — especially in 2020 with all that’s happened — with portraying a future as a hopeful thing. I think people are really hungry for that — ‘if we all set aside our differences and work together toward a common goal, then we have a very bright and hopeful future,'” “The Astronauts” showrunner Daniel Knauf tells Variety.
