Gold Derby can exclusively reveal that Sheryl Lee Ralph is entering the “Abbott Elementary” episode “Librarian” as her 2024 Emmy Award submission for Best Comedy Supporting Actress. The episode aired on March 13 and is the seventh one of the third season of the ABC series.
In “Librarian,” Ms. Inez (Cree Summer) becomes Abbott’s new librarian after Janine’s (Quinta Brunson) library program is green-lit. While the other teachers and even her own students love Ms. Inez and her new protocols and ideas, Barbara (Ralph) can’t handle the changes and dislikes being unable to do as she pleases in the library like she used to. But Barbara realizes she must adapt by the end and writes a glowing review of the program for Janine.
The 2022 winner, Ralph has been nominated for every season of “Abbott Elementary” thus far. She faces Carol Burnett (“Palm Royale”), Liza Colón-Zayas (“The Bear”), Hannah Einbinder (“Hacks”), Janelle James (“Abbott Elementary”) and Meryl Streep (“Only Murders in the Building”).
