Season synopsis[edit]
The Latest Always Sunny Stuff 3.1k Shares Glenn's New Show 'A.P. Plex 64 bit. Bio' Has Preview and Series Start Dates SetGreat It's Actually Happening (Extreme Eye Roll). Dee is trying to deliver some news but gets ignored.
The Gang gets even crazier this season when Sweet Dee and Charlie become cannibals while Mac and Dennis decide to hunt humans for sport. Later, the gang hatches a plot to counter soaring prices at the pump by stealing and reselling gasoline, then try living the healthy life—by scamming their way to free medical insurance, but not before trying to prove that Paddy's Pub is historically relevant, and kidnapping a newspaper critic who panned their bar. Dee and Frank set out to stop Bruce Mathis (Dee and Dennis's biological father) from donating Barbara's inheritance to a community center for Muslims while Charlie and Mac fake their deaths to escape Mac's convict father, Luther, who vowed in 'Dennis Looks Like a Registered Sex Offender' to get revenge on the two of them for screwing up his plan to make amends with the people he terrorized before he was sent away to prison for the first time.
This season also sees Frank holding a contest to find a new billboard model for the bar and the gang trying to bring good karma to a Hispanic family by rebuilding their hovel. Dennis' erotic memoirs land him in a mental hospital with comedian Sinbad and Matchbox Twenty lead singer, Rob Thomas. Dee and Artemis live it up like the girls on Sex and the City, while Frank and the rest of the gang solve a scatological mystery. Charlie continues to stalk The Waitress, especially in light of news that someone else is having sex with her; then Charlie reworks his 'Night Man' song into a sprawling musical to win over The Waitress.

I didn't write about It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia last week. You know why? Because it was awful. And I didn't want to get angry emails from IASIP apologists explaining to me what a gay retard I am for not recognizing that a half hour of jokes about Danny DeVito shitting in a bed is genius. Well it is not genius. And I think it's time that we all just come to accept that this show, while having some of the highest highs, also has some of the lowest lows. But last night's was good. 'We all have cats we would like to be playing with right now.' Also, this happened for some reason.
Seriously, I don't know why they did that. I guess every few years a show has to use 'End of the Road' Boyz II Men. for comic relief. Like when Seth Cohen was listening to 'End of the Road' after his break up from Summer in season 1 of The O.C.* Nullus on remembering that, BTW.
*Footnote for the Superfans: I was doing some research on the time when Seth Cohen was listening to 'End of the Road' after his break up from Summer in season 1 of The O.C. and I found this blog with a list of the top 10 musical moments from that show. Not only is the Boyz II Men moment at the top of the list, but MORE IMPORTANTLY, the blogger claims to BE A WRITER ON IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY. I would rest my case if I knew what my case was.
