It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia renewed for 4 more season

I could watch new episodes of this show for the next 100 years.

The newer seasons are weaker. But I'll take it. Good news!

When will they be doing the gang opens an Only Fans account? Because I want to see the Mac videos.

R3 YES!

Bring back Fat Mac!

Muscled Mac is impressive.

This DL-fave show has peaked, but is still very loved. Good news indeed.

I maybe laughed at one episode from the most recent season, but, for whatever reason, this still makes me happy.

Like others, I’m wary. Been watching old ones lately and the newer ones are just ok.

The cast are aging weirdly. Particularly Glenn Howerton. Kaitlin Olson is drinking virgin blood or something.

Awaiting the inevitable COVID-related madness from The Gang. Should be good.

Mac and Dennis should totally just hook up and become an open item now, while there's time left. PEEP SHOW did that with Jez and some guy in its last season.

I still think about Mac's exercise bike.

Mac and Dennis have hooked up by now. Am I wrong?

I really liked Sunny - a lot of good laughs, but my watching petered out around season 8. Are later seasons worthwhile? I did see a one-off episode from season 10 that was decent.

R11 Mac's secret exercise bike

R13 - yes, but it really varies episode to episode in later seasons.

One of the funniest shows of all time. I put it off for years, because I thought it was some bro show, but once I saw the first few episodes I was hooked and binged the entire series in 2 weeks. It helps that the episodes are under a half hour and the seasons are short. They were clever to do that so they don't run out of ideas like most sitcoms that have 20-something episodes per season.

What is it about the three (sometimes four) guys and one girl setup that is so rich for television comedies?

The Gang Can't Hold Other Jobs

R18 - LOL!!

Kudos, R18.

Fitfat Mac nudity!

R14 I have to admit I'm masturbated thinking about Mac using that, and his Dennis sex doll.

Years ago I'd heard about this show and watched a few episodes. When I saw the one where they went to the water park and Danny Devito loudly pretended to have AIDS to get to the front of the line (after Charlie gave him hickeys to look like kaposi sarcoma), and that was hardly the most outrageous moment in the episode, and I was laughing out loud. I realized I was dealing with a whole other kind of show and became hooked.

Fun fact: This is the only show that gets applauded for repeated use of black-face!

I haven’t seen the newer ones. Is it still good? Seems like this has been on forever.

I just moved to Philly. Never watched it. Is it required to understand the soul of the city?

I want Mac to fuck me

Sweet Dee Is Dating R24.

R16 I’m with you. I thought it would be some testosterone-fest. But my petite Asian -American female friend told me to watch it. I fell in love. Damn DEVito at his repulsive best.

Any naked pics of HUGE PENIS MAC?

I love the one where they have the hitch trailer and try to go on a road trip to the Grand Canyon (after trying to ditch Dee repeatedly) but never even get out of Philly. Dennis and Mac nearly burn to death after trying to use a BBQ grill in the moving trailer with the door closed.

There needs to be a storyline where Mac is locked up in chasity

R23 "No matter how good it feels, don't sit on the suction drain at the bottom of the wave pool."

How big do you think Mac's penis is? Anyone?

Based on what we've seen of his character, I would say average to small.

This is a show that has been consistently good season after season.

Mac has a micropeen would be a good storyline.

The AIDS waterpark episode had me crying tears of laughter. I really don't know how they get away with everything they do. I guess because it's always at the expense of the lead characters. We're supposed to know they're awful people and it's kinda fun to watch them squirm and make fools of themselves.

R26, it has very little to do with Philly itself, other than being taped there, and a few sports-themed episodes.

Here are some nude and shirtless pics of Rob (and his sadly underwhelming ass).

I'd love to see the storyline with Mac finally showing off his massive size penis to the gang and Dee and Dennis both fall in love with Mac at the sight of it.

R39 Except for a few throw away exterior shots and maybe a special episode or two, it’s not taped in Philadelphia.

four more years. never seen this particular television program, but helluva lot better than four more years of y'all know who....

Actually, Trump is one of the few who can actually outdo the character’s vileness on the show, so it is the lesser of two evils.

.........

Good news! I love the gang. They’re despicable and help me make peace with my inner demons.

[quote]How big do you think Mac's penis is? Anyone?

Looks like a button on a fur coat.

I just started watching this. Thanks, DL!

I'm thrilled they got renewed for 4 more seasons. I just hope they don't go on lengthy hiatuses between each of them as they have done in the past.

This show always seemed to be a frat boy show, like Entourage, so I never watched it. Can't believe it's been on for something like 20 seasons!

[quote] Except for a few throw away exterior shots and maybe a special episode or two, it’s not taped in Philadelphia.

We see them filming around Philly every season. They even redo the storefronts. It’s always funny and they’re extremely nice to everyone. Danny is a sweetheart.

I love everyone trying to diagnose Dennis. Sociopath?

R50 I’ve always suspected that Danny D. is a sweetheart. But he plays despicable so well.

R46 A bee? Bee on me?

To have your show picked up for another 4 seasons, is something every television actor want to hear. Especially for the work and opportunities that comes with being apart of a hit show. But also the $$$$$$.

Good for them!

..........

Sunny was popular at the beginning, but just given the one and nature of the show, I never ever would have predicted 18 seasons.

Actually, most shows I wouldn't want to last 18 seasons, and Sunny is probably past it's peak. But there's enough good stuff and good episodes to keep it going. I guess the nature of the show does help it - people being hilariously vile usually sells. And, as the characters age there's different things they can do with that.

The Gang is only in their mid 40s. I don't know why that surprises me.

They've quietly had some of the most successful careers in Hollywood.

I meant "tone and nature of the show"

I'm surprised the show isn't more popular here. It's pretty much a straight version of Datalounge: an insular, immature group of lying narcissists who alternately try to impress each other and vent their bottomless spleen.

I think they're tremendous.

It has a weird reach. Most people have heard of it, and it has a dedicated audience, but for whatever reason, it's easy to miss. I've met lot of people who have never watched it (and didn't have any objection or negative impressions of it) or started watching significantly after it debuted.

It was one of those shows that, for whatever reason, I'd always assumed would be a frat guy kinda show like Jackass or something. Just people drinking and being stupid, but after a friend I trusted told me how funny it was, I gave it a shot and realized how incredibly clever it was. Each of the actors brings something wonderfully original to the table to keep the dynamic fresh and they have excellent chemistry together which you can't fake. That goes a long way.

Power bottom

Twink, Twunk, Twank

Yestergay

And... lmao

I got AIDS!

Okay, this thread has gotten me in the mood to check out some old episodes I haven't seen in a while. The AIDS waterpark one is definitely on the list. What are some of your other favorite episodes from prior seasons?

AIDS in the pool! Everyone out!

Santa, did you fuck my mom?!

I think it has a Philly spirit - not very ambitious, working class, happy to hang out at the bar with friends you’ve known forever. It wouldn’t be as believable in many other cities - it’s totally believable in Philly.

"Can a twink be a top, or is that reserved for bears?"

LMAO. Half of it is the precision of the line readings. In someone else's hands, it very well might not be as funny. They all crack me up with their particular deliveries.

Katlin Olson is a treasure.

I think I almost passed out watching that episode in which Frank escaped, naked and oiled up, from inside a couch.

There are so many good episodes R64. The show was remarkably consistent for its first eight or nine seasons, and it's still mostly great through season 12 IMHO. Just start from the beginning.

Although I will say I think I hyperventilated while watching Mac Is a Serial Killer. Definitely a personal fave.

What is the episode where Geoffrey Owens (Elvin from the Cosby Show) shows up as "Tiger Woods" at Dee's door? I remember that being really funny episode.

Am I remembering correctly that they were basically forced to take Devito on as a castmember and they really didn't want to (not because they didn't like Devito but because they didn't want to be told what to do), but it all ended up working out superbly.

I'm rewatching in response to this thread. The first episode of the first season - The Gang Gets Racist - has me laughing two minutes in when Dee tells them to "not be weird" because a guy from her acting class is coming by - who is black. And of course the Gang is super weird and awkward.

And there's the gay subplot in the very first episode.

Okay, this is the greatest will reading ever done for television!!!

The Jersey shore episode is fucking fantastic!

I’m well-versed in bird law.

This became a huge meme on election night. BTW, it’s Pennsylvania Charlie is reading. lmao

I would like some welfare please.

lmao.

The ride.

There’s an entire episode where they’re trying to see a movie just because a guy shows his dong in it.

One of the funniest Rickety Cricket bits.

This scene with Charlie always gets me

Weirdly, I could see Charlie Day in a Billy Joel biopic.

I know Dumb musclehead Mac and psychopathically narcistic Dennis get a lot of love, but I've always thought Charlie is quite cute.

I love that Charlie and "The Waitress" are actually married in real life.

But it’s creepy that Dee and Mac are too.

[quote] To have your show picked up for another 4 seasons, is something every television actor want to hear.

The hell it is!

AP Bio is a funny show.

I just remembered...after the first episode I almost gave up on the show, because I thought it was going too far to make light of the possibility of Dennis getting raped. Since then the show has had some even darker moments. (Thank goodness!)

The Dennis looks like a pedophile episode... Frank’s little girls pageant... the fake funeral for the dumpster baby, which was Rob and Kaitlin’s real child... lol.

Charlie Day has a nice cock.

Dennis wants a divorce. I love when she used his money to turn herself into a cat.

Mac coming out to his father doing a great dance routine is still a great television moment.

For those of you new to the show, Rob McElhenney who plays Mac was still waiting tables when the first season aired. He was also raised by two women.

Charlie Day is so cute to me.

Rob is the ultimate fag stag; lesbian moms, two gay brothers.

Anyone got pics of his gay bros? Please don't let them be fugly.

The gang salts Gail the Snail

[quote]What is the episode where Geoffrey Owens (Elvin from the Cosby Show) shows up as "Tiger Woods" at Dee's door?

That was Frank's Pretty Woman, the one where Frank wants to marry his best hoor, Roxie, and Dee becomes a foot girl. Just typing that made me smile.

I'm expecting them to someday do a self-aware ep that seems to be setting up a spinoff. And these those characters will never be seen again.

PS: Happy Holidays, you savages!

Here is one of Rob’s gay brothers who is a photographer and is very cute.

The woman who plays Artemis (also her real name) is a standout.

The Zodiac Killer! lol

There was one episode that took place mainly on a boat at the dock. One of the gang had purchased it for cheap, and they were trying to fix it up. I’m not sure what season it’s from or the name of the episode. I was up late one night because of a stomach virus, and I remember laughing so hard, while trying not to laugh at all, because everything hurt after vomiting so much.

It’s also really funny when the point of view is shown from the height of DeVito.

R102 - here's Pat and his hubby. Any ID on the other gay brother??

Mac’s childhood home is actually Rob’s. Here’s the real house’s interior.

I think this is the other brother.

The family. Rob’s sister is a writer... I think.

Bros in ocean.

Rob was such a flamer.

The Gang Breaks Dee... eating trash cake.

The shit in Dennis’s trunk.

The Gang dances at high school reunion.

Mac’s name is revealed: Ronald McDonald

r72 That was the first episode of Season 7. If anyone wants to get a sense of the show, just watch the first few episodes of Season 7 and if you like it, go back to the beginning of season 2....season 1 is kind of experimental, not the best place to start. you can always watch it later out of curiosity.

The gay bros seem fun. Younger one's very artsy.

R114 The dance routine at the end of that episode had me screaming. When I watched it I kept rewinding it and re-watching the "reveal" again and again. I'm chuckling now just typing this. One of the show's funniest moments!

What was it about elaborate dance routines for the season finale? Better Things did one as well.

Ben the soldier is kinda hot.

I just saw a VERY young Rob on an old Law & Order episode. He's maybe 13 or 14 and looked like Haley Joel Osment. No surprise many years later on one of the Sunny episodes, their doppelgangers enter the bar. Mac's was Haley Joel Osment; they still looked very similar! I can't remember who the others were...

I liked the tranny that Mac fell for and tried to keep apart from the gang. She winds up married to the black guy and doesn't Dee have their surrogate baby?

I don't even watch this show and I really like Rob McElhenney. He's so handsome, but he seems like he's not got a big ego in real life. He mostly cares about being funny.

[quote] He mostly cares about being funny.

Ummmm.

I love the one where they’re spying on the lawyer in his own car. There watching everyone including a woman in a motel room eating an entire sleeve of Chips-Ahoy.
