It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia #1

Quote:

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia revolves around three friends who own a bar in the City of Brotherly Love and have to overcome their relentless self-involvement to make their friendship and business work.

It was created Rob McElhenney, an actor ("Wonder Boys," "13 Conversations About One Thing") taking his first shot behind the camera. He'll also star with Charlie Day ("Luis") and Glenn Howerton ("That '80s Show," "ER").

Another show (right after Starved) that is hilarious! Honestly, they make a good match, and FX can make more then just dramas. I highly reccomend it, and can't wait til the next episode.

When is it on? I meant to watch it, but I completely forgot. I think it looks hilarious.

I missed this show as well. The previews have been hilarious. :lmao:

Thursday nights on FX at 10:30.

I'm going to try and catch it tomorrow night. I might watch Starved also but that show seems like it would gross me out... :look:

Tonight's episode summary:

Quote:

Charlie Wants an Abortion
A girl from Charlie's past reveals they have a child together. Mac sees the benefits in being a pro-life advocate, while Dennis uses an abortion rally to meet women.

:lol: I caught the first episode last night after Over There. It was great.

The sister thing was just great. I also loved how Dennis woke up and checked out the body of the person lying next to him and agreed. Only to find out it was a guy! :lmao:

I'm glad you liked it, Mike. It's definetly one of the funnier comedies I've seen in a while.

It was funny when Dennis was getting hit-on and then he resisted. And then they started complimenting his eyes ... and he was like dancing and stuff. :lmao: And then the morning after, and the reveal that she couldn't get her actor friends. :lol:

Well, I missed the last episode but I'm sure it will be on again sometime. It seems that Thurday is my going out night. :mischief:

It's all good, Mike.

I actually tape it, along with "Starved". This week's episode was hilarious! :lmao:

It got renewed!!! :yay:

'Sunny' Will Rise Again at FX; 'Starved' Cut Off
(Friday, October 07 02:55 PM)

LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) FX has made a Sophie's choice with its two comedy series, opting to bring one back for a second season and canceling the other.
"It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" received the pickup, getting a 13-episode order for its second season after seven episodes this summer. The show is the first original comedy series to earn a second season on the cable network -- which, it should be noted, hasn't tried comedy that much in the past.

The controversial "Starved," meanwhile, won't extend its run past this season. The series, which was created by and starred Eric Schaeffer, drew protests from eating-disorder groups upon its debut -- Schaeffer played an anorexic/compulsive overeater and member of an eating-disorder support group -- but the reason for its cancellation came down to numbers.

FX was happy with both shows creatively, but "It's Always Sunny" fared somewhat better with audiences, averaging 1.14 million viewers during its run, which included a midstream switch from Thursday to Tuesday nights. "Starved" brought in just over a million viewers per week. Neither show got a huge marketing push, as FX was also launching its Iraq war drama "Over There" around the same time.
"It's Always Sunny" stars Charlie Day, Rob McElhenney, Glenn Howerton and Kaitlin Olson as four friends who own a bar in the title city. McElhenney created the show, and he Day and Howerton all serve as writers and executive producers.

FX is developing a handful of other comedy projects as potential companions for "It's Always Sunny."

I still need to see the most of the first season. I think the moved the timeslot or something because I haven't seen any episodes... :look:

I don't think they've been airing any episodes, recently.

June 29th! The previews for the new episodes look great! :D

This show is super funny but so freakin offensive. One of the previews for the second season shows one of the guys picking all black kids for his team in a school. And the girl is like "you can't do that" and he is like "do what". And Danny DeVito is joining the cast.
