It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia

javelin watched since s 5 or so. not sure why it was still good

javelin=havent

yeah a LOT of the recurring characters are there from the start. Isn't there one episode that introduces like three main recurring character, incl the waitress...?

xp

oh I see I already covered this:

I recently re-watched this show from the beginning and I had forgotten how much gets established early on. Like, in the 4th episode they introduce the waitress + Charlie's infatuation w her, Artemis, Dee's acting ambitions, and Mac's infatuation with Carmen the transexual. Almost everything the show calls back to (including most of the recurring characters) is set up by the end of the 2nd season.

lol yes that was the post i was referring to i thought i remembered it being lagoon

s1 is pretty bad, i agree that devito coming in is where it improves. not necessarily bc of him but it's a good dividing line.

i love their high-concept episodes, especially the one where the bar tries to win an award and the (mostly) one-take episode about fooling the health inspector

dennis's natural leadership abilities and general sociopathic tendencies haven't really shown up too much yet either. sweet dee seems like the most fully fleshed out so far

dee is nicer/more reasonable at the beginning of the show, iirc kaitlyn olsen went to the dudes eventually and told them she didn't want to be the nagging woman character any more so they started making her more pathetic and weird

"the gang finds a dead guy" is great LOL watching now

i don't remember dennis smoking either

they just made the pilot themselves for like $30, p cool

love how they stuck w that low budge feel throughout

i just rescreened a some eps yesterday and dee gives birth and the christmas ep back to back is some serious genius

ive prob watched the christmas ep 4 times and there are two scenes that make me lol irl srsly hard every time

cuttys soliloquy abt the jorts in dee gives birth is transcendent too

Xmas special is so unbelievably great. the stop-motion animation segment is next level. the pantsless dwarf. Mac's family stealing presents.

I believe this is truly the best show of our time fwiw

so many great parts but frank sewn into the couch and charlie and the mall santa are what send me over the edge

lol forgot about the couch

have been rewatching Review, maybe I need to switch back to this

mack incensed that the toy story guy doesnt know who mike schmidt is is perfect too lmfao

I regularly yell out "botch toe!" (Botched?)

I believe this is truly the best show of our time fwiw

Pretty sure it's my favourite US sitcom ever.

its extremely classic for sure

It needs to be back on already

RIP Country Mac

he was cool

I think you mean BADASS

yes

I've been laying chum up and down this plane

lmao the boxing episode in s2

Lol yeah just watched that one

Favorite part of the plane episode is Dee hallucinating Boss Hogg instead of Wade Boggs

Kaitlin Olson has a new tv show, The Mick, fyi

relieved that's not a crazy paddy spin off

I'm physically incapable of watching this without losing it

def one of my fave moments of the show.

no comic actor has gotten more mileage out of the perfectly executed dry heave

so are these guys done, is there not gonna be another season?

January 4

yessss

hope we get to "The Gang Gets Middle-Aged" at some point

"Dennis Goes Bald"

rewatching the one where Dennis revisits his old Penn State frat(!) made me wonder how/why they completely avoided the Paterno thing. Or maybe they felt they'd already done that story with that early "Charlie Gets Molested" ep

def one of my fave moments of the show.

for the ages

I believe they are signed up to do two more seasons beyond the one starting in January. From what I understand, it's a pretty huge hit as a streaming show.

it seems p under the radar to me - I don't know anyone else irl who watches it, and they never get awards/press

my all-time favorite has to be "Who Got Dee Pregnant?"
