It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia is not your traditional television sitcom. For instance, one won’t find laugh tracks, loveable characters or even happy endings at the conclusion of an episode. Instead the FX comedy is populated with unsympathetic characters entwined in very politically incorrect situations that inevitably turn out badly for those involved. An early tagline declared the series to be “Seinfeld on acid” and It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia certainly ups the ante in regards to unacceptable antics and taboo narratives. The cast, meanwhile, consists of four self-centered lowlifes who continually fail to understand the greater world at large while the paternal Frank Reynolds—portrayed by the hilarious Danny DeVito—sinks to new lows of debauchery. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia may not be a comedy for everyone, but with its humorous exploration of the underside of acceptable behavior, it is one of the best sitcoms on television nonetheless.
