It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia

frank is probably still writing in some disgraced politician of yesteryear in if he does vote

"The Gang
Votes for Trump"

Dennis and Dee sort of fancy themselves progressives I think. Mac deffo a Trump man, Frank probably. Charlie surely doesn't have a clue.

dennis and dee are def liberalish but i think trump's chauvinism might have been a attraction to dennis

tomi lahren and i wouldn't regret it a bit

I hope Trump is just D.E.N.N.I.S.ing America, since it means eventually he'll Separate Entirely.

surely someone else will M.A.C. and we'll be left with Frank's scraps (it's not an acronym )

Charlie can't read, probably won't vote

jeez if we can't wanna bang hot chicks i guess we're all dennis

god I'm sifting through the seasons I fell behind on, started with ten yesterday, and went to the group dating ep and was dying every time Frank blew the whistle and they aborted.

still nothing funnier than when Frank pulls out a gun tho

the group dating ep and was dying every time Frank blew the whistle and they aborted.

Haha, is that the one where he does a pep talk something like "all we gotta do is get our names right", then goes up to a girl and says "Hi, I'm Frack"?

hahaha yes

S11 was really top quality, I don't think there was really a bad episode in the bunch. And the 2-part finale is some kind of apex, esp the second half.

I'm hard-pressed to think of a live-action show that has been as consistently good for as long as Sunny. Cheers, maybe?

nah Cheers quality drops significantly after Long leaves imo

S11 was really top quality, I don't think there was really a bad episode in the bunch.

Just looking through episode descriptions and you might be right. 9 and 10 were very patchy on the other hand iirc.

can't contain my excitement at the upcoming episode entitled "Making Dennis Reynolds a Murderer"

though this is even more twisted:

"Wolf Cola: A Public Relations Nightmare" (Airs January 25, 10 PM ET/PT) Franks Fluids LLC is in big trouble after a news segment shows Wolf Cola has become the official drink of Boko Haram.

i dont really like when they go high concept, the ski ep, the cruise ship etc, gets a lil schticky

no mention of macs out gayness yet this season

the revolutionary war one was good imo xp

no mention of macs out gayness yet this season

?

iirc he went back in the closet as soon as the boat started flooding

yeah he was only temporarily "out" during brief period when he thought there was no god. But God then proceeded to sink the ship etc.

some of the best eps are high-concept too, though maybe in a different way - like "dennis work" and "the gang tries to win an award" are both pretty high-concept

imo the show is consistently inconsistent. each season has a couple of duds, a couple of gems, and a bunch of pretty good eps.

really appreciate the occasional reminder of how bad they are at running the bar, like the one from a recent season where Charlie steps up to the task of passing a health inspection despite the fact everyone else is trying to run some tainted meat scam

man the ski trip episode is a classic, for this scene alone:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lL39ppkiOoE

that's "charlie work," which is what i meant to type before instead of "dennis work"

for some reason I thought a previous episode was Charlie Work! but yeah, a+

PARTY MOUNTAIN

feel like some of the earlier episodes that originated stupid recurring gags get shortchanged in lists. I have a soft spot for "The Gang Gets Invincible" even if the whole green man persona was gimmicky

the reveal that Frank's entire acid trip took place while he was standing in a trash can really established his whole unreliable narrator persona

kind of want them to bring back Lil' Kev again as a successful rapper

my favorite sunny moment is in the intervention episode when they tell frank the bar is on fire and he comes in with his gun out yelling "where's the fire!?!!?" that whole episode is great tho.

also someone pointed out in the comments section of that gawker list that pepe silvia is likely charlie trying to read pennsylvania. i had never thought of that before.

and "Carol" is "Care Of"

yeh think one of the writers debunked that as coincidence

you're just mashing it now

'the waitress is getting married' is at #83 on that list. that list is worthless.

The poop in the bed episode is way too high on that list. Probably my least favourite

are we gonna have to poll all the episodes ourselves

be up for that

oh i quite like that ep xp

Who Pooped the Bed would be in my top 10

"Who Pooped The Bed?" is funny, but doesn't quite live up to the episode title--kinda like "Mac and Charlie Die"

off the top of my head, top ranked would be the "Gang Goes to Hell" 2-parter, the high school reunion 2-parter, who pooped the bed?, the waitress is getting married, the Gang Gets Held Hostage, The Gang Dances Their Asses Off, The Nightman Cometh, Who Got Dee Pregnant?, A Very Sunny Christmas, Chardee MacDennis: Game of Games, Flowers for Charlie, the first Lethal Weapon one. Um, there's probably another dozen or so that I think are close to perfect...

Mac is a Serial Killer, The Gang Solves the Gas Crisis, The Gang Wrestles For the Troops, Mac Day, The Gang Dances Their Asses Off, Dennis & Dee Go On Welfare, The Gang Runs For Office...

This is truly an all-time great comedy and I won't rest until everyone agrees.

The Gang Gets Invincible was a favorite of mine, I rewound and replayed every scene with Faizon Love losing his temper probably 100 times the night that ended.

think episodes are hard to rank cos it's so consistent that people's favorites can be drastically different for minor reasons. kinda what I love about it.

also caused me to say "Do I really need more episodes" for a while but catching up has made me reinvigorated by the show

I also found it interesting how much more conventional (by its own measure) the pre-Frank episodes were. Like in the first few episodes they actually gave a shit about running the bar and increasing profits and were more just socially awkward dudes, and Dee actually briefly gave a shit about Artemis, etc.

My brother got me the DVDs for one Christmas (I'd never seen the show), and he'd only seen post-Frank eps and he kept remarking, surprised at how it was so different than the ones he'd seen and how Charlie's voice was deeper and everything and he wasn't all that insane. it was still a weird show but way more confined.

agree that Mac Day is way up there. RIP Country Mac.

in the early eps Charlie could read, Mac was not gay, etc. Things took a little while to solidify.

the Gang Broke Dee about killed me the other night, Lavell Crawford playing "Landslide", Dennis's Morbsian reaction to the infantile comedy around him.

oh and Charlie as Serpico in "Bums: Making a Mess Over the City" (except for the moments where they self-referenced it"), "To the Mare", his spin doctors mix tape....

"The Gang Sells Out", particularly for the one line:

"Gangsters don't sing!"
'What are you talking about? you ever hear of gangsta rap?'

I think this poll might need to happen actually. after a 5-month nom process

xpost yeah - when Charlie was playing Bones and yelled some trash talk, my bro said "THAT'S more like the Charlie I'm used to". I still love all those early eps too, they were just funny for other reasons. Frank brought it to the next level tho. Sort of like he was their Douche Sensei, they all had this shitty behavior in them and he showed them how to use it.
