Depraved underachieving might look easy, but for the egocentric Mac, Charlie, Dennis, Frank and Dee, it's an art form. "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" follows "The Gang," the owners of the unsuccessful Paddy's Pub; a group of degenerates who loves nothing more than to scheme, conspire, and mostly revel in each other's misery. Whether gaming the welfare system, exploiting dumpster babies, pretending to be crippled, impersonating officers, or faking funerals, The Gang never stoops too low in the name of making a buck.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Always Sunny's eighth season, holding no greater ambition than to just let the Gang humiliate themselves through a succession of depraved hijinks, excels at its goal with gut-busting results.

Emily Guendelsberger AV Club Seven seasons later, Day, Howerton, and McElhenney aren't bothering with point A. Rated: B Oct 11, 2012 Full Review Mike Lechevallier Slant Magazine It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia has become the Energizer Bunny of cable TV sitcoms, a hyperactive, enduring burst of awkward hilarity and imprudently cooked-up schemes. Rated: 3/4 Oct 11, 2012 Full Review Brian Tallerico HollywoodChicago.com Yes, Sunny is just as dark and crazy as ever. I just wish it was a little more focused in its wit and a little less familiar. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 11, 2012 Full Review Mark Trammell TV Equals Overall, fairly inspired hilarity, if not the truly off-the-wall meta-com the ads promised. Oct 16, 2020 Full Review Jason Cassidy Sacramento News & Review Another hilarious start to a new season. Oct 15, 2020 Full Review Alexander Lowe We Got This Covered The fact Cricket is absent from most episodes, but is still one of the most notable characters on the show, speaks volumes to the performance that David Hornsby gives, but also to how well the comedy is spread throughout the show.

dave d A solid go to when you need at least one laugh. One of the few shows which doesn't take itself very seriously and the result is often gold. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/17/24 Full Review Bec B The episodes are so funny and will win your loyalty for life. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/03/23 Full Review Christopher M This show is consistently the funniest thing on TV. It's an absolute must watch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Terri F I love this show so much, it's always funny Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/15/22 Full Review Audience Member The most deranged group of highly functioning sociopaths you'll ever see. Never gets old Frank Reynolds, Sweet Dee, Dennis they are all so chaotic Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Definitely in my top 3 seasons. The show has built such a strong foundation that half the episodes can be callbacks to previous seasons and characters without feeling like they ran out of ideas. This is also probably one of the most consistent seasons, it didn't feel like any episode was below average. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
