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.

J. Kelly Nestruck Globe and Mail A perfect example of the cult series’ surreal, sociopathic anti-charm. Jul 10, 2025 Full Review Liz Shannon Miller Consequence Mac (Rob McElhenney, now credited as Rob Mac), Charlie (Charlie Day), Dennis (Glenn Howerton), Sweet Dee (Kaitlin Olson), and Frank (Danny DeVito) show no signs of getting their shit together anytime soon, and once again it’s to television’s benefit. Rated: B+ Jul 7, 2025 Full Review Rachel Ho Exclaim! For a show that made its success by being decidedly politically incorrect, [they've] found a voice in its 17th season that derides yet engages with the divisive politics of today. Jul 18, 2025 Full Review Hope Sloop Decider Season 17 may not be the best season of the long-running comedy as it will always have its formative years, filled with now potentially cancelable jokes and bits, to look back on, but as far as modern Sunny seasons go, this is one of the funniest. Jul 11, 2025 Full Review Alan French FandomWire It’s Always Sunny takes a step back into the ring, legitimately posing a challenge to Hacks as the funniest show on television today. Rated: 10/10 Jul 8, 2025 Full Review Nicholas Brooks CBR It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Season 17 is a near perfect season, and perhaps the best the show has to offer.

Every time i think they are done and they just keep coming back to life. This season is really good! So far the gang take-off really relevant topics and somehow manages to surprise you every second. The acting is always amazing and its just absolutely filthy funny. It’s always sunny changed comedy for me. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/27/25 Full Review Audience Member This season is a miss for me. Couldn’t even get all the way through episode 4. I’m out. Better luck next season. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 07/25/25 Full Review Phil F. Episode 3 is GOLD. This season is better than the last! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/22/25 Full Review Kristen A The season has been unstoppable!!! I cried laughing watching "Mac and Dennis become EMTs"! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/20/25 Full Review Bill S A sad shadow of it's former self. Episodes 1 and 3 were two of the worst Sunny episodes ever, and episode 2 was just slightly funny in a few moments. It's hard to watch one of the greatest tv shows of all time be reduced to an embarrassment. If this is the best writing they have left, they need to call it and end the show.
