It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: The Waitress Is Getting Married (2009) Season 5, Episode 5

One of the funniest episodes of any TV show ever

[10/10 · 24 October 2018]

The 5 minutes of Mac and Dennis trying to set up a dating profile for Charlie is without a doubt the funniest part of the series. The smile Charlie makes after he says "ghouls" is nothing short of comedic gold. 10/10

The League (I) (2009–2015)

It's Always Sunny but with football

[9/10 · 20 October 2018]

I will start by saying It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is my favorite show of all time. I will follow this up with saying that The League is one of the funniest shows I've ever watched. While it doesn't have the same level of satire that Sunny has, this show had the same irreverence and the same no-holds-barred energy that Sunny has. FX and FXX have struck gold with two of the funniest shows or funniest this era of television has seen. While season 7 was not good, the first 6 seasons gave me some of the best laughs I've ever had.

Weak but not terrible

[8/10 · 18 October 2018]

I personally think this season has been amazing. The first two episodes were solid, while the third had a great concept that I felt they didn't quite deliver on as well as they could have. Then you have three straight episodes that I believe all could already be in consideration for the top 25 Sunny episodes of all time with Time's Up, New Wheels, and the Bathroom Problem. This episode was a step down from the previous three as the jokes were few and far between as well as the plot being a much. However, as with the Boggs reboot, I enjoyed the underlying satire that they were going for. Shows get old, they run out of ideas, and they start just rehashing concepts from earlier seasons. I believe this episode was deliberate filler, every season of Sunny has one due to the strain of other projects the cast/writers are involved in. I think they did what they had to do with this filler episode and they seem to almost acknowledge that's what it is in the episode. A lot of fans seem to think that this season has been terrible and that they've lost their magic. I have to strongly disagree, as I mentioned before there have been several strong entries to Sunny canon already. Satire has always been the main theme of Sunny and this season has been full of brilliant dissections of our culture today, even if there are a couple of weaker episodes.I know I've been all over the place with this review so I'll shut up now because of the implication.
