It's always sunny in Philadelphia

Post by Thanous » Mon Nov 10, 2014 11:22 pm

This show is hilarious!

I started it earlier today, already on season 3. just 1 more episode...

This show is awesome, but I don't know how it's got so many seasons with it's terrible ratings, not 1 episode in season 9 had over a million views (source wikipedia), and yet it was renewed for 3 more seasons already XD

Not complaining, but just confusing, but looking at the views for FX's other shows, I guess they could just have a much MUCH lower viewer number standard than other channels

what do y'all think about this show? and about these subjects?

I watch It's Always Sunny when I just need something to kill time on Netflix. Love me some Charlie Day.

You don't need spectacular ratings to get by on cable. FX is the type of channel that will keep a show on the air because it's critically acclaimed. It's Always Sunny in particular is a cult show, so while people don't tune in live they make up for it with stuff like DVD and merchandise sales. Especially because the show is pretty low-budget
and that's the waaaaaaaaaay the news goes

I have seen that is was very low budget earlier, but saw an interview that said they were like 2 million per episode now, that's the same as mad men XD

Numbers are so much fun :kirby:[DOUBLEPOST=1415679005,1415678969][/DOUBLEPOST](that totally read sarcastic, but I ain't a sarcastic person) XD

Every single character is an ******* and that's what makes it funny.

The newer seasons aren't as good, on season 8, it's getting a lot more about gross stuff, and eh he characters are getting a bit old.

Still gonna finish it, but still

I love this show. The writing and delivery is always so **** tight. I'm a huge sucker for shows that know how to deliver their laughs through banter and unique line delivery, so this one's up there for me.

Is it just a coincidence that he plays a guy named Charlie or was the role made for him? I've been wondering.

Role was made for him. The show was created by the guys who play Mac and Dennis, and is produced by Charlie.
and that's the waaaaaaaaaay the news goes

Mac, Charlie and Dennis are played by the three dudes who created, co-produce, and usually co-write the show.
