Walter praised Midler's abilities as an actress, pointing out that she was both flexible and subtle. "She's not just like a balls out, you know, broad, which, she's that too," Walter said, comparing Midler to Melissa Schemmenti, her fictional character. "She's also a really talented, nuanced actress."
Chris Perfetti, who is well-known for playing charming eighth-grade history teacher Jacob Hill, responded to Midler's request with a lighthearted demeanor.

Abbott Elementary has been receiving praise, renewals, and a guest list full of celebrities for its next season.
