Goddamnit I hate gin. DEE YOU BITCH

Dee, you gangly uncoordinated bitch. I am not getting hogtied over your lack of grace.

For a semi-later season episode for an intro: The Gang Beats Boggs

[Celery Man 20,950]

I’m admittedly not as down on some of the recent seasons as some of you guys (even 13 had escape room, times up, drivers ed/bicycles) but I am cautiously optimistic about the new season. The guys have been doing a podcast where they (theoretically) watch and discuss each episode, and I feel like they are more in touch and in love with the essence of sunny than in recent years.

I fucking love the Always Sunny podcast. The best ones are where they basically talk for almost an hour about something completely unrelated to the show they are supposed to be talking about. 

And the trailers for the new season has me cautiously hyped. Love that Liam is back!  And it looks like the McPoyles own (or at least work at) the bowling ally now, lol.

I’m way behind in the podcast but I enjoyed it and will turn back to it soon. I also enjoy the parts that go different directions but I’d prefer they talk more to the episodes sometimes. I liked the one where they got hammered.

Y’all are slipping. Excellent premiere. Got back to the meat and potatoes of Always Sunny. I laughed quite a bit.

The second episode just didn’t work.

Agree with both

Man, they really aged between last season and this one.

Mac, especially.  The last shot of him all allergied up in the booth was great though.

[Js1 85,337]

The only part of episode 2 I really liked was everyone discovering the second bedroom and Charlie acting so mad about it. Living in a maze, a mile walk to the door, needs a butler

There's a bathroom? We piss in cans, Charlie.

[MissingInAction 25,076]

Loved both eps. They do look fucking old though. Maybe it's the lighting.

[Deej 76,791]

Time to go back to standard definition.

[Deej 76,791]

Mac looks like he had a bunch of botox injections in his forehead. 

[billfromlaketravis 11,480]

RE: Second episode. Frank turning into a gun toting dog was a bridge too far. And the Mac-Charlie storyline wasn’t funny. Charlie’s sisters weren’t bad looking. 
 

It seems the best episodes are pretty focused settings at the bar, and their apartments.

Yeah that was jarring in the first few min of episode 1. Mac and Dee both had a shit ton of work done on their face recently and it’s off putting. Real Mac would never.

Real Mac would still be fat.

['stache 21,815]

Holy shit, I loved both episodes, the first a little more. The extra room is one of those things that after 15 years is so random and hilarious, they still think up great stuff. Of course they look older, they’re mid 40s, Dee had some work done sure, still hot af to me.

Yeah I mean I sure wouldn't want 4K HD cameras pointing at my upper-40s face today if there was literally thousands of hours of me in my early 30s to compare with, lol.

[billfromlaketravis 11,480]

Dee thankfully didn't go the Meg Ryan Route. But it did take, Jesus, 5+ years, for the swelling to go down.

I'm pretty split on Kaitlin Olson. No I'm not kicking her out of bed for eating crackers, but she's not classically Hollywood pretty. Dee as ostrich is one of the show's funnier gags. 

Mac getting botox was always going to happen for a big fitness guy. 

[mdleast 8,289]

I am glad the show is back - perfect summer enjoyable viewing and I was sufficiently whelmed with both episodes.

[Grade of D as in David 13,253]

I've been wanting a Bar Rescue episode forever, I feel they missed an opportunity with this one.

[oSuJeff97 3,435]

Yeah I enjoyed the first two... especially episode 2.  Haven't watched 3 yet.

As for Mac's/Rob's appearance, I'm pretty sure that's exactly what the "nut allergy" joke was about as his face got more and more swelled through the episode. In fact, I'll have to go back and re-watch, but I think there was actually a line like, "I don't even recognize him any more..."

Those guys are all extremely self-aware and it's one of the things I love best about the show.

Yeah Dee’s face in episode 3 was probably a joke about her plastic surgery. 
 

3 was pretty meh except for Cricket.

Yup, Bar Rescue is a fantastic premise for an episode, and they didn’t execute. It should’ve been the central focus — not the dumb curse bits.

Sunny and Archer had great runs, but they are a shell of their former selves.  The League picked the right time to shut it down.

Uh, what? It went on for 7 seasons. The last 3 were brutally unfunny unless Rafi or Taco bailed them out. It's remarkable the show was as funny as it was with Nick Kroll as one of the leads. 

If It's Always Sunny is going to continue to mail it in to break the longest sitcom record, please continue with cameos of beloved characters. Crickets is a good start. I believe the McPoyles are coming back. Jackie Deardo is also welcome to come back any time she feels like it.

I think the reason I have a much harder time watching this show is that it now feels like the characters know they're on TV. Everything just seems like a performance rather than the earlier seasons when things were chaotic and it felt like you were watching like an eye in the sky. This year's premiere was fun but the other episodes have been pretty bad. I don't see how this show goes on for 3 more seasons at its current rate. 

[royiv 9,317]

Anyone notice that Charlie was wearing a vintage Cap 10k t-shirt in the opening scene of ep 3?

[Al_4_ISU 12,463]

I liked the first two episodes quite a bit.  Kinda half-assed watched the third and didn't get a great assessment.

The whole bit about treating Frank like a dog that's going to get put down was classic Sunny to me.  When he comes to that conclusion on the beach, I was absolutely in tears.

[billfromlaketravis 11,480]

Episode 4 is pretty solid. I won’t spoil it for anybody, but a classic episode is reprised.

[IDIOTsavant 8,483]

Yeah, I really enjoyed Episode 4 as well….

[billfromlaketravis 11,480]

Dennis gets a little GD weird in this episode, but it tracks. 

[Grade of D as in David 13,253]

Uncle Jack was almost too much.

[shadow_operative 15,932]

that episode was nearly bereft of laughs. dee grabbing the guy's junk under the table was the only time i laughed, and that was just due to the visual. other than that just an all around bad episode.

[Celery Man 20,950]

Good open, Dee’s line about getting her guts pumped, Uncle Jack not having any ice cream. Some classic always sunny type moments.

I kinda feel like this is just because they are all lit up these days like a proper sitcom. Brighter than an orgasm.

I mean... he's just a man who needs his tools.... for... fetish shit.  He also really enjoys the skins because the skins are the most interesting part of any animal.

What's the big deal?
