    In reply to It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia: "The Nightman Cometh"
    I have uncovered a conspiracy theory behind Thursday tv though. Having my 3 favorite shows all on in a row (Office, 30 Rock, and Sunny) could lead to an implosion of humor on my night. Each one is funnier than the last so that by the end of the night my standards for comedy are so high nothing can satisfy me! It's terrible. Wine helps though.


    That being said, the first 5 min of 30 Rock was the first time this season i saw some of the classic liz-has-no-idea-how-to-act-properly-outside-of-the-studio moments that i love so much. "Also, don't overthink it. Sara Lee. Frozen. AMAZING" I can't wait for next week when there aren't any special guest's ego's to overtake the show.

    My boyfriend sent me this link last night, super hilarious:


    And, if you go on hulu.com, there is a clip of the guys holding a panel discussion at a ComiCon, and that too is hilarious.

    The one ep that gave me pause was the gang broke the liberty bell one. I was a little nervous about it sucking, but they pulled it off. Totally not my favorite, but I loved it anyway.

    I watched the first season of this show, and I expected to like it...but instead it just made me sad. I like all the other shows that It's Always Sunny fans enjoy, but I just did not enjoy watching these guys (and gal) being horrible to each other and everyone else ALL THE TIME.


    Is it just me?

    @Kivrin: Yeah, if you have a high tolerance for the kind of humor that runs rampant in "Seinfeld" and "Curb Your Enthusiasm," then this works for you. I can completely understand why it doesn't appeal to others, though. That said, I sort of love the horrible behavior, especially since they primarily inflict it on each other, and that every time they try to benefit from it, it backfires horribly. (Maybe I'm just rationalizing, but I still wind up laughing...)

    @rollergirl76, @GuyismyGuy: I realize that's the point of the show -- that's why I didn't like it. I was just wondering if any other people reading the thread might have reacted the same way I did -- love all the other usual suspects, not easily offended...yet strangely turned off by IASIP. But perhaps it's just me!

    @Kater Tot: Love Seinfeld and CYE -- that's why I was shocked that I didn't like It's Always Sunny. Sure, I chuckled a few times while watching the DVDs. But I think the last ep I saw broke the camel's back -- it was the one where they're drinking and driving, and they hit that innocent bystander who ends up in the hospital. For some reason that just rubbed me the wrong way. Oh well! At least I gave it a shot.

    Did anybody see the episode when Charlie was waiting for up for Mac and he drank the whole 24 pack of beer? I don't think I've laughed that hard in a long time. I was crying.

    Let me throw this out there, funniest show on TV? I think so, last night I watched The Office, 30 Rock then Sunny. I LOL'd like twice during the office, none during 30 Rock, too many to count during Sunny.

    @AthertonMerriweather: I don't know what happened to The Office, I used to think it was hilarious, I still like it but its more about all the ongoing relationship drama than funny. idk. Sometimes its nice to watch a show like Sunny thats just fucking funny and thats enough. I haven't really like one episode of 30 Rock all season, the guest stars are too much.

    This, in a twisted way, reminds me of the only episodes of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood that I actually enjoyed as a child- the Opera specials where the entire show took place in the Neighborhood of Make Believe.

    I've seen a few eps of this show, and am wondering: Should I be starting from the beginning and watching in order, or does it not matter? (I'm doing that now with 30 Rock. LOVE.)

    @mutualcraze: It doesn't rely as heavily on continuity, but for some characters, (the waitress, rickety cricket) you might confused as to what their deal is.


    But trust, it's like crack, once you start you will be addicted. A lot of it is on Hulu for free as well.
