For a show that’s been on the air for a whopping nine seasons, it’s astonishing that FXX’s original series “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” still manages to be one of the funniest and most refreshing shows on television. While the show may cross the line at times with its controversial subject material, it contains enough satire and funny banter between the characters to get away with it. So get ready for another great and hysterical season from Philly’s favorite bar owners.

It’s natural flow and charming improvisation from all its gifted actors make it a must watch during the fall season.
