"The Gang Gets A TV Tropes Page"It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is a critically-acclaimed sitcom created by Rob McElhenney and developed by him and Glenn Howerton for FX, where it premiered in 2005 and aired its first eight seasons before switching to FXX starting with Season 9, where it has remained. Reruns have aired on Comedy Central, MTV2 and Viceland, while the entire series is available for streaming on Netflix (in Ireland and the UK) and Hulu (also in the US).The show follows a group of friends, regularly called "the Gang", which consists of Dennis Reynolds (Howerton), Deandra "Sweet Dee" Reynolds (Kaitlin Olson), Charlie Kelly (Charlie Day), and Ronald "Mac" McDonald (McElhenney). Together they run Paddy's Pub, a struggling South Philadelphia Irish-themed dive bar. Dennis is the vain, sociopathic prep from a rich family, Dee is his shallow, shrill, and insecure twin sister who has aspirations of being an actress, Charlie is the high-strung idiot savant who is obsessed with the waitress at a coffee shop, and Mac is the wanna-be bruiser forever stuck in adolescence as well as the closet.*Until season 12 In the second season, Danny DeVito joins the cast as Dennis and Dee's neglectful father Frank, a shady, millionaire businessman who is drawn to the gang's depravity and chooses to bankroll their schemes.The show goes to great lengths in bringing the Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist and sheer Comedic Sociopathy to new highs/lows, serving as a brutal Deconstructive Parody to many sitcom tropes. The most insane suggestions Played for Laughs only to be dismissed in other shows are followed through to the bitter end by this group. If there is a voice of reason, they are either promptly ignored or join in due to the possible pay-out. To them, getting addicted to crack in order to qualify for welfare sounds like a logical strategy.The three-guys-one-girl structure and selfish characters have led many critics to compare the show to Seinfeld, and was frequently called "Seinfeld on crack" by critics in early seasons. Sixteen seasons have been produced, with two more officially greenlit, making it the longest-running American live-action sitcom of all time.

Adam Westing: In "Dee Made a Smut Film", Richard Grieco plays himself as a washed-up actor with nothing better to do than play the title role in The Movie of Dennis Reynolds: An Erotic Life. Comedian Sinbad and Matchbox 20 frontman Rob Thomas play as themselves as abusive mental patients in "Dennis Reynolds: An Erotic Life". In "The Gang Turns Black", Scott Bakula plays a washed-up version of himself who is now a janitor in a retirement home.

Dirty Coward: Mac, Dennis, and Charlie always flee from confrontation. When someone tries to mug them in an alleyway, they throw Dee to the ground and bolt, abandoning her. When the guys realize that they don't have enough money to cover their restaurant bill, they agree to solve the problem like they solve every problem, and promptly run away. When Mac and Charlie don't have enough money to pay the dozen prostitutes they've hired, they run away, still wearing their top hats and tails.

Heroic BSoD: Charlie experiences one when he discovers that his mother is a former prostitute. After getting over it after a few minutes by "burying it down deep" (and also refusing to fully believe it), he gets another, much worse BSOD when he sees a mall Santa while shopping with Mac (triggering memories of numerous men dressed as Santa coming to his house one by one on Christmas mornings, presumably taking turns with Bonnie). Dennis has one after he decides to abandon his child. He then realizes that he would just be perpetuating another cycle of hurting and decides to leave Philadelphia to raise his son.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The lyrics to Night Man (the second half of them, anyway) sound like an account of someone (possibly Charlie, since he did write the song) getting molested in his sleep by a man who broke into his room. It has been lampshaded. Politically: In "The Gang Solves The North Korea Situation," the gang's dilemma with the Korean restaurant is made to parallel US-Korean relations. The owner, "Mr. Kim," is suspected of "enriching" his beer. In "The Gang Goes Jihad," where the gang's issues with an Israeli who buys the land their bar is on and later builds a wall around it, parallels the Israel-Palestine dilemma. The Israeli reminds the American characters that their country was also created by stealing land. In "The Aluminum Monster Vs. Fatty Magoo", the slave labor conditions are even described as like a concentration camp, with the loud speaker blaring German propaganda, and the workers being described as Eastern Europeans. This is sort of Lampshaded when Mac says "The German war propaganda was a nice touch." Also in "The Aluminum Monster...," Dennis invents dress orders that don't match the reality of their demand, which is much like the centrally planned economy of the Soviet Union.

Playing Catch with the Old Man: Parodied in "PTS Dee." Dennis tries to launch a career as a male stripper with Charlie as his manager, but Dennis's insecurities and a healthy dose of Insane Troll Logic leads to them performing as "Daddy and The Boy," a father-and-son duo pretending to play a game of catch onstage to "Cat's In The Cradle." The female audience boos them offstage.

Staging an Intervention
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_175683fa
comment
Staging an Intervention: In the aptly titled "The Gang Gives Frank an Intervention", The Gang feels as though Frank is "going off the deep end," doing things like trying to have sex with his sister-in-law. They attempt to help him see what he's become, but unfortunately, The Gang's idea of doing so is to scream "Intervention!" repeatedly and make loud wailing noises (like a siren) while they insult him. They also try to stage impromptu interventions on Charlie for being illiterate, and Mac for banging Gail the Snail.

Not Where They Thought: "The Gang Hits the Road." After a daylong struggle to get on the road to the Grand Canyon, the Gang allows a young hitchhiker to drive Dee's car so they can get drunk and pass out in the U-Haul. The next morning they realize they've stopped, and get out at what they think is the canyon... and realize the hitchhiker stole the car and stranded them right in front of Paddy's Pub where they started.

"Well Done, Son" Guy: Mac, still stuck on adolescence, desperately seeks the approval of his creepy wayward father Luther. While Luther is in prison, Mac tries unsuccessfully to show him that he's "hard." When Luther first gets out of prison, Mac becomes emotionally invested in getting his parents back together, sputtering, "This is about happy boys!" He even tries to bond with his father by driving him to the houses of everybody who was responsible for getting him convicted. In the end of "Mac & Charlie Die Part II," Luther leaves a note telling Mac that he still loves him, even though Mac has driven him away with his constant screw-ups.

comment
Kafka Komedy: Ben Smith, Dee's boyfriend throughout Season 5, is a legitimately good-hearted, caring (if not very bright) man who treats Dee like a queen even though she constantly puts him through the wringer. He's also gorgeous with a "stupid"note (in a good way) body, but Dee pushes him away because she's paranoid that he's using some sort of elaborate scheme to get in her pants, just because Dennis revealed that he's been doing the same thing to other women. While this is one of the more blatant examples in the series, there are many instances of characters outside of The Gang getting screwed over because they unknowingly made the mistake of being nice to the main cast (Ben is one of the few to not suffer any lasting damage, being just smart enough to get out of the relationship while the getting was good).

 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_1849f58e
comment
Comedic Work, Serious Scene: This show is a Black Comedy centered around five Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist "friends" who are horrible people. However, the episode "Mac Finds His Pride" deals with Mac trying to find himself as a gay person and it's played very seriously. The episode ends with him finally coming out to his dad and performing an interpretive dance to express himself but is rejected. But it also has Frank, seen as the most depraved member of the group and who in the entire episode has been uncaring in Mac's plight, showing legit empathy for Mac and applauding his performance.

The Sociopath: Dennis. He manipulates, exploits others, barely shows any empathy, and thinks that others are strange or incompetent for not sharing his bizarre ideas. He has a rigid, egotistical view of himself and the world, flipping out at the slightest break from his narrowly defined idea of life. In season 10, he's diagnosed with borderline personality disorder.

Pop-Cultural Osmosis: Charles Gounod's "Funeral March of a Marionette" appears in "Frank Retires," "Chardee Mac Dennis 2," and "Mc Poyle vs. Ponderosa." Although the song is, like all the music on the show, in the public domain and fairly standard stock music, most people just think it's the theme to Alfred Hitchcock Presents.

The Danza: In-universe example in "Mac and Charlie Write a Movie", where Mac and Charlie want the lead to be played by Dolph Lundgren. When they try to pitch it to Dennis, Charlie insists on the lead character also being named Dolph Lundgren. Mac argues that this would be confusing.

Hillbilly Incest: The McPoyle clan leans heavily into this trope. They are implied to be hillbillies due to their rural accents and the family meeting in a remote cabin in the woods. The whole family is very inbred. Siblings Liam, Ryan, and Margaret McPoyle are all overtly sexual toward one another.

Self-Parody
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_1d52b714
comment
Self-Parody: "The Gang Recycles Their Trash", which constantly has the Gang commenting on how similar the events are to previous episodes involving the Gang having a wacky scheme, and trying to skew the team dynamics so they come out on top. This was in season eight, typically around the point sitcoms start to run out of ideas, and the episode ended up being a bit of metacommentary on storytelling patterns and the need for shows to stay fresh.

Heterosexual Life-Partners
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_1dfbbf31
comment
Heterosexual Life-Partners: Dennis and Mac, though the "heterosexual" is increasingly debatable, at least on Mac's part. Charlie and Frank are definitely this. Few others would tolerate the squalor they live in together, but more than that they each enthusiastically support each other's weird habits (like sewer scavenging), have their own traditions and games (like Nightcrawlers) and rely on each other to be able to explain their joint weirdness which is pretty much incomphrensible to anyone else, Gang included. Of course, Frank might also be his father but won't acknowledge it. Mac and Charlie because they were childhood friends before meeting the Reynoldses, occasionally comes back when Dennis and Dee act stuck-up from their perceived upper-class upbringing and alienate the more "white-trash" Mac and Charlie.

The Friends Who Never Hang: Generally averted as every potential duo in the Gang gets a few episodes together, but Dennis and Charlie rarely have storylines together without Mac or Frank acting as an intermediary between the two, and Mac and Dee only have a handful of episodes centering around just the two of them.

Wrong Genre Savvy
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_20a14df0
comment
Wrong Genre Savvy: Constant as the gang consider themselves far more intelligent and capable than they are. Dee thinks she's a smart and sophisticated gal, Dennis is a charming ladies' man, Mac The Ace and Charlie a clever guy when they're a bunch of sociopaths. The gang try to do a "surprise home makeover" on a Hispanic family but with their dark clothing and talk of "taking care of things," the terrified family thinks they're about to be murdered. Dennis assumes he'll be welcomed back at his high school as a "golden god," unaware he was just a loser in school. In "The Gang Turns Black", the gang try and fail to decide how to turn back, using series like Quantum Leap and The Wiz as references. None of them get any closer, and it's revealed at the end that it was all the dream of Old Black Man's.

Black Comedy
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_222dc873
comment
Black Comedy: A staple of the show. Some of the blackest jokes include: In "Mac and Dennis: Manhunters", Dee and Charlie believe they ate human meat, and go as far as entering a morgue with the intent to cannibalize a corpse. At the end, Charlie suggests cutting off Frank's calf and eating it, to which Dee responds by moaning "Oh yes." The frequent suggestion that Dennis is a date rapist. Charlie's stories about the mysterious "Nightman" are strongly implied to be his fuzzy recollections of being molested by his uncle as a child. Frank tries to hang himself twice in one episode. "The Gang Broke Dee" has the gang go to absurd lengths to crush Dee's dreams purely for entertainment value. In "Sweet Dee Gets Audited" the gang holds a fake funeral for the infant Dee carried as a surrogate mother in order to thwart the IRS audit she incurred attempting to claim the child as a dependent. Separately lampshaded by almost every character. “PTSDee� has Dee manipulate a man into humping his daughter’s face, completely ruining a family relationship. All this because he claimed sleeping with Dee was rock bottom.

Only Sane Man: Sweet Dee in the first season usually plays this role. Actress Kaitlin Olson managed to remove the characterization by the second season, and since then Dee has been just as dumb, belligerent and crass as the rest of the gang. But due to being the Butt-Monkey of the group she is slightly more likely to call the others out on bad behavior, but in later episodes any member of gang can play this role depending on the subject of the episode. "The Gang Gets Trapped" highlights the importance of an Only Sane Man; Dennis comments on how the Gang's problems stem from the fact that they don't have a set person to reign in the others when they do stupid shit:

Verbal Tic: Frank's Jersey accent comes out when he pronounces "whore" as "hoor." Likewise with how he pronounces "trash". This is something of a running gag done by Danny DeVito throughout his career. The gang also tends to use the word 'pop' as a verb a lot, in varying contexts. For example, saying that someone is going to "pop" his shirt off, "pop" by a store, or "pop" a nametag on. "Move past it," "Can we just move past it?" etc. are used constantly.

Funny Background Event: A subtle element of the show's style of comedy is out-of-focus characters reacting to whatever insanity is occurring nearby; Charlie is frequently either the subject of this or the one doing it (watch him whenever he's sitting in the background), and Dennis is often the latter by dint of a foul temper that he's phenomenally poor at hiding whenever the others' behavior starts to grate.

Everyone Went to School Together

comment
Everyone Went to School Together: Almost becomes a Running Gag. While we know from his introduction that Rickety Cricket went to high school with the Gang, later episodes gradually reveal that a sizable chunk of the supporting cast did as well, and the Gang are simply too self-centered to remember. This reaches its apex in "The High School Reunion", which is a Continuity Cavalcade featuring every character previously stated to be a classmate.

In "Sweet Dee Gets Audited" the gang holds a fake funeral for the infant Dee carried as a surrogate mother in order to thwart the IRS audit she incurred attempting to claim the child as a dependent. Separately lampshaded by almost every character.

Limited Wardrobe: Ben is always seen wearing the jean shorts that Frank gives him in his first episode. Charlie, more than any of the other main cast members, wears the same clothes over and over, emphasizing his poverty. In one episode he states that he repairs his old clothes rather than buy anything new. Notable favorites include his black and red horse t-shirt, green army jacket and long thermal underwear— he also wears the same undersized brown-and-black necktie when a situation calls for formal attire. Some of these clothes are Charlie Day's actual property.

Break the Haughty: Dennis holds a very high opinion of his intellect, appearance and status as a ladies' man. When any of these are called into question, the results tend to be spectacular, such as his Golden God speech at the high school reunion, his breakdown on Family Fight, or when he's rejected by both Mac and Charlie's mothers in the episode "Mac Bangs Dennis' Mom".

He Who Fights Monsters
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_2c1f1138
comment
He Who Fights Monsters: Some of the gang's most frequent victims, in particular Rickety Cricket, Dennis and Dee's biological father Bruce, the Waitress and the Lawyer, often end up stooping to very low levels to seek retribution, usually in the form of the same kind of underhanded schemes that the gang is known for. These initially decent characters have all become just as unsympathetic as the main cast through their attempts to force karma on the gang, which always either backfires or just ends up restoring the status quo for next week's episode.

In high school Dee had a gnarly back brace and was called "The Titanium Monster." She had two other "friends" in the same social category. There was Matt Mara who had leg braces and called "Rickety Cricket" which is retained by almost everyone else in the show. Ingrid Nelson was also obese and called Fatty McGoo but in the present day is slender and owns her own fashion line, attempts to still call her Fatty McGoo generally fall flat.

Hidden Depths
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_2dc0d2bf
comment
Hidden Depths: As a whole the characters are quite depraved and psychopathic but on a few occasions it is demonstrated that they do have some standards, even if it derives from their apathy due to being self-absorbed. The fact that they are the butt of the joke sometimes goes a long way. While they may share inappropriate ideas and suggest inappropriate actions they are quite protective of minors and are rather non-judgemental towards subjects of race, sexual orientation and transgenders. Mac gets into a relationship with a trans woman named Carmen and it barely registers to the rest of the gang. It's also suggested that all of them are products of a toxic environment and upbringing, making their actions lean towards pitiable rather than meaningless.

Dennis tries forgoing the Gang's usual antics and run the bar for once because no one gets him anything for Valentine's Day and Dee becomes jealous when Charlie tries making a Valentine's Day card for Frank's tapeworm to the point where she threatens him with a bag of powdered sugar disguised as anthrax if he doesn't give her something.

Scary Black Man: Two different bit characters fit this trope: In "The Gang Runs For Office", the union representatives intimidate Mac with a large black guy named Marvin, whose only line in the episode is a threat to stab Mac in his throat. In "The Gang Gets Invincible", the coach for the public Eagles tryouts is a big, intimidating black man who screams at the top of his lungs roughly 80% of the time he talks. Z, played by Chad Coleman, is the scariest member of the creepy people who hang out under the bridge.

Strange Minds Think Alike
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_308a5ff0
comment
Strange Minds Think Alike: Dennis and Dee independently have the exact same reaction to Charlie's plan of opening a leather shop in Arizona. Dennis points it out. Dennis and Frank separately insist that the other must visit their restaurant table and "pay their respects," rather than the other way around. Mac won't let Dennis eat apple skins because he believes them to be poisonous. Later, Dennis eats an apple seed and Charlie tells him to induce vomiting because he believes the seed is poisonous. And when Frank asks why Dennis in vomiting, Charlie tells him that he ate an apple seed, Frank gives a shocked look, implying that he believes it's poisonous too. Mac also believes this, telling Dennis to smoke some cigarettes so the smoke will suffocate the bacteria from the seed. In "The Gang Escapes", Dennis believes that Frank loudly chewing gum is a power play because "the head cow is always grazing". When he sends Mac to get him some gum, Frank refuses to share because he believes the exact same thing and doesn't want Dennis asserting his dominance as the "head cow". The twins generally have a tendency to come up with the same predatory behaviour separately, whether it’s rapey implications, dominating their “friends�, abusive systems that they enjoy using on each other, or just pretending to have a dog that died to foster sympathy. This works to their benefit in “The Gang Escapes�, as Dee knows exactly how her brother’s brain works in his creepy rape dungeon, so gets out and lets the Gang technically win (and she’s delighted about getting praise).

She had two other "friends" in the same social category. There was Matt Mara who had leg braces and called "Rickety Cricket" which is retained by almost everyone else in the show.

Even Evil Has Standards
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_319e4a2f
comment
Even Evil Has Standards: The gang almost has no morals whatsoever. This makes the few times someone speaks up or acts selfless all the more notable, though often paired with Hypocritical Humor. The lines they draw typically involve exploitation of kids, racist ideology or actual acts of violence. Shortly after suggesting the gang hold an involuntary wet T-shirt contest by locking the doors and hosing down all the women in the bar, Frank finds out that the Korean girl Charlie put in the contest as an opening act is actually twelve years old. He immediately throws himself in front of the hose to keep her from getting wet, drenching himself in the process. Whenever it comes to the topic of children being sexually exploited, the whole gang is disgusted, taking the bit from "The Gang Spies Like U.S." for example, where Mac and Dennis are appalled when they misinterpret a conversation and think that Charlie is proposing that they should take advantage of kids in this way for profit. In "Dennis and Dee Go on Welfare," Mac is disgusted that Dennis and Dee are going to commit welfare fraud so they can get money to finance their dream careers, as he feels welfare is only for those who are poor and desperate, like drug addicts and those too mentally or physically disabled to contribute to society. The gang often spout out culturally and racially insensitive comments and views, but always show that they're against prejudice as a concept. Members of the gang will often bicker about whether something one of them said or did is bigoted. They're all unified in hating Nazis, though are amused at memorabilia. Frank is usually the only voice of concern towards the treatment of Rickety Cricket; he tells Mac and Dennis that man-hunting Cricket will drive him over the edge and helps him get them off his back, reacts with worry when he slashes Cricket's throat while wrestling, and even ignoring Dee's (and Cricket's own) objections and an impending storm to bring Cricket to a hospital after shooting him in the hand. Mac, Charlie, and Dee all take offense at the idea that peeping on unaware girls or flashing them is anything close to a prank or acceptable at all. In "The Gang Gets Whacked", Frank is against the gang selling cocaine to fund an electric bill saying that "only the biggest pieces of shit deal drugs." He's not above using drugs however. He was also okay with pimping his own son as a gigolo in the same episode. The gang as a whole, despite their own immoral and disgusting lifestyles, are all disturbed by the McPoyle family. Justified since the McPoyles are much more depraved than the gang is. When Dennis moves to the suburbs with Mac, he's outraged by the fact that one of their neighbors drives too fast while in the subdivision because he's concerned that the children who play in the street might get hurt. One notable example is in "The Gang Hits the Road" when Mac throws a beer bottle at a biker. Even when he does this, Mac is shocked when the bottle actually hits the biker in the back of the head, causing the man to veer off the road and hit a parked car. Mac and the Gang stop driving and actually express concern for the biker's well-being when he doesn't get up right away, and they're relieved when he finally manages to rise to his feet.

Dennis is extremely possessive of Dee, claiming her hair is as much as his as well as hers and not letting her do anything innocently fun without him, and Dee finds it a turn on to emasculate or humiliate her brother and show how pathetic he really is, while also having sex fantasies of torturing him. They also seem to make it a point to TMI brag to each other about at best slutty exploits, or at worst, sexually extorting someone with the threat of violence or False Rape Accusation.

Title In: The Cold Open to each episode begins with the opening dialogue playing over black title cards with "[Time]", "On a [day]", "Philadelphia, PA". This is played with in "Mac's Banging The Waitress", when Mac's intro to a video he's filming gives a Narration Echo to the title cards. "OK, it's 2:30... on a Wednesday... Philadelphia PA. Hello America, it's Mac here..."

Five-Second Foreshadowing
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_381855db
comment
Five-Second Foreshadowing: In the beginning of "The Gang Squashes Their Beefs", Liam McPoyle screams at Mac and Dennis that he has no depth perception as a result of losing an eye. This leads right into a gag in which he attempts to revoke their video store membership by cutting their card with a pair of scissors, but can't line the card up with the scissors and misses completely.

Does Not Know His Own Strength
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_38291355
comment
A minor example: Mac first starts hanging out with Carmen, a transgender woman, in the episode "Charlie Has Cancer". At one point during the episode, she gives Mac a low-five so hard that it hurts his hand. Later, in "Mac is a Serial Killer", Mac becomes uncomfortable with some of Carmen's masculine tendencies, and he cites the fact that she's "really strong" and that she hurts him when she uses her hands during their make-out sessions.

Batman Gambit
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_38d02d44
comment
Batman Gambit: The flip-cup challenge at the end of "The Gang Reignites The Rivalry". The gang puts Dee at the beginning of their lineup against the frat boys, knowing that the frat boys would all finish before Dennis, Mac, or Charlie would have to drink, and poisoned all of the beers beforehand. Dee pulls off several in "The Gang Dances Their Asses Off" to get everyone eliminated so she can win the dance contest. It almost works, too, except that Rickety Cricket botches her last attempt. In "The Gang Finds a Dumpster Baby", Dennis gets into a rivalry with a local environmentalist trying to protect a tree from being bulldozed. So Dennis offers to chain himself to the tree, knowing that the guy would insist on doing it himself. Then, while the guy is chained to the tree all night in the rain, Dennis has sex with his girlfriend. To top it off, he comes back the next day, unchains the guy, and watches the tree get bulldozed anyway. Charlie, of all people, plans one in "Mac Bangs Dennis' Mom." It is almost entirely successful. In "Charlie and Dee Find Love," Charlie hatches a scheme where he seemingly abandons The Waitress for another girl. He was really using her to get The Waitress to beg him to come back out of desperation after a series of accidents makes her realize that she needs him. Charlie attempted one in the Season 1 episode "Charlie Has Cancer". He lied to Dennis that he might have cancer and explicitly requested that Dennis not tell anyone, secretly hoping that he would tell The Waitress, who Charlie believed would start dating him out of sympathy (as he noticed her wearing a "Live strong" bracelet).

Actor Allusion
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_392372f9
comment
Actor Allusion In "Sweet Dee has a Heart Attack", Frank escapes a mental institution in the same manner as Chief Bromden in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Danny DeVito played a minor character in that movie. In "Dennis and Sweet Dee's Mom Is Dead," Dennis and Dee's biological father Bruce mentions that he is a minister; Stephen Collins, who plays Bruce, was a pastor in his best-known role on 7th Heaven. However, see Harsher in Hindsight in the YMMV tab. In "Charlie has Cancer" Dee tells her friend Artemis that the bar has a Coyote Ugly thing going on. Kaitlin Olson had a very brief appearance in the film. In "The Gang Beats Boggs", Dennis gets off the plane in Fargo. Glenn Howerton played a recurring character on the series named after the city. Frank's makeup job from the mortuary in "Frank Reynolds' Little Beauties" makes him look like The Penguin in Batman Returns, one of Danny DeVito's more famous film roles. The scientist in "Flowers for Charlie" is played by Burn Gorman, who plays a scientist alongside Charlie Day in Pacific Rim. The episode was written by the showrunners of Game of Thrones, in which Gorman also had a recurring role. Da Maniac, played by Roddy Piper, almost always wears a black leather jacket similar to the one he often wore as a wrestler. Probably unintentional, but in the pilot episode, Dee at one point mentions having a weird dream the previous night about living in Cleveland, Ohio. Prior to this series, Kaitlin Olson had a reoccurring role on The Drew Carey Show which was set in Cleveland, Ohio.

Character Development
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_3b113b7
comment
Character Development: Deliberately defied. The gang never learn any lessons from their experiences. In fact if anything their morals and mental states degrade further with each passing season. Played straight in the Season 12 finale. Throughout the season, Dennis has been noticeably calmer compared to previous seasons and he outright says that he does have feelings. This becomes important in Dennis' Double Life, because he decides to help a one-night stand raise her son to try and prevent a cycle of hurting, which Frank started. This is, however, temporary. Played someone straight for Mac, who goes from homophobic ladies' man to closeted homosexual to openly gay and proud of it by the end of Season 13.

Zany Scheme

comment
Zany Scheme: At least one per episode. It always goes horribly, horribly wrong. In The Gang Gets Trapped, the episode begins halfway through one of their zany schemes, the context of the situation revealed gradually. After acquiring an Indiana Jones costume, the gang argue about who should wear it and split it up. Dee tells them about a vase auctioned off to a family, and the gang decides to steal it back for the museum that sold it to them in the first place.

Humans Are Bastards: It's hard to feel sorry for even the more sympathetic characters, since they're all assholes in one way or another, most of whom will lie to, manipulate, and/or hurt other people in a heartbeat to get what they want. The only unarguable exception is Ben the soldier, whose virtue and goodness really stand out amongst a cast full of sociopaths, maniacs, and bigots.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_3ed23024
comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: In "The Gang Misses the Boat" Frank tries to join a new "gang" and create the same situations the old gang went through. Whereas the real gang manage to keep running a bar even when they're doing things that should definitely cost them their license in reality, after one night with Frank, the new gang has not only lost their license but is facing a $75,000 fine. During the episode "The Gang Goes to the Jersey Shore", Charlie and The Waitress bond over a mutual love of the beach. They spend a night together, laughing and frolicking, and Charlie thinks he's finally broken through and earned her affections, thanks in part to the magical and romantic nature of the beach. Turns out she was high on ecstasy, and she immediately returns to the status quo of being repulsed by him. In "The Gang Broke Dee" we get to see what years of constant put-downs Dee suffered at the hands of the gang brings. It results in Dee suffering from self-esteem issues and clinical depression that reach to the point of her being suicidal. In "Gun Fever Too: Still Hot" Dennis and Dee attempt to prove the need for stricter gun laws by going to the local gun store and buying one. They give the owner their IDs to check... and are immediately denied purchase due to the records showing Dennis' criminal history and Dee having been institutionalized.

Stylistic Suck
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_415b3315
comment
Stylistic Suck: Almost everything Charlie writes is either completely illegible or completely insane, often both. The best example of this would be his song "The Nightman"—Charlie claims it is about the nightman filling him up and he becomes the spirit of the nightman, but the lyrics sound like they are more about a man breaking into his house and raping him. Later when Mac hands Dennis Charlie's lyrics, Dennis asks if it is a page from a coloring book. His musical, "The Nightman Cometh", is an equally strange tale, made worse by The Gang's poor acting and Dee's paranoia about being viewed as a pedophile. Throughout the series, The Gang attempts to make movies, video presentations, and commercials. Almost all of them are littered with bad acting and non-sequiturs, as well as sporadic snippets of clips from their previous ventures that they couldn't be bothered to erase.

Smart Ball: All five of the main characters are insane idiots, but someone is bound to find the current scheme and/or actions of another character to be crazy, weird or stupid. Sometimes this goes hand-in-hand with the character saying or knowing something legitimately intelligent. In particular, Mac tends to bounce back and forth between being a bonafide Only Sane Man to the only member of the group capable of being less intelligent than Charlie.

Love Dodecahedron
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_4523420b
comment
Love Dodecahedron: The relationships on the show gradually devolve into a particularly twisted version of this, largely due to the Gang's increasingly toxic codependency. To wit: Mac is in love with Dennis, who finds him irritating but will occasionally take advantage of his feelings to manipulate him. Charlie and Dee had some Ship Tease in the early seasons, culminating in them sleeping together in "The Gang Misses the Boat" (though this is later revealed to have been non-consensual on Charlie's end). Charlie is obsessed with the Waitress, who hates him but has slept with Dennis (on whom she has an ill-advised crush), Frank and ex-Gang member Schmitty, as well as doing "hand stuff" to Mac. She does briefly enter into a relationship with Charlie while trying to get pregnant during the Time Skip between seasons 12 and 13, but breaks things off once Dennis returns. There's also plenty of Incest Subtext between both Dennis and Dee and Frank and Charlie, with the latter pair even getting married in one episode. Things are complicated even further once the parents are added into the picture. Dennis and Dee's mom Barbara had sex with Mac, leading Dennis to try and seduce both Mac and Charlie's mothers as revenge. The season two finale reveals that the twins' biological father isn't Frank but Bruce Mathis, with whom Barbara was having an affair some thirty years previous. Around the same time, Frank was also cheating on her with Bonnie Kelly, making him a likely contender for Charlie's absent father. Frank and Bonnie have an on-off sexual relationship throughout the series, and Bonnie also sleeps with Luther (Mac's dad) on at least one occasion, all while living with Mac's mom in a Les Yay filled relationship.

Shirtless Scene: Dennis, frequently, as he believes himself to be physically perfect and irresistible. Often pops off his shirt in order to seduce women — though frequently without success, as for example in "The Gang Solves the North Korea Situation" and "Charlie and Dee find Love". Mac has a very memorable one in the season 7 finale. Mac after getting ripped in Season 13.

Jerk with a Heart of Gold
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_4781adbb
comment
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Arguably all of them. Although there's no doubt that they display extreme narcissism, they also seem to genuinely care for each other. Dennis's obsession with seeing Dee looked after when she's giving birth; Charlie and Mac wanting to step up to be fathers when they realise that none of the men Dee has dated seem to be fit parents; holding hands with one another before they think they're about to drown; their complete acceptance of Mac's homosexuality-it's rare, but sometimes they show the sliver of possibility of good nature.

Intergenerational Friendship
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_47d35854
comment
Intergenerational Friendship: Frank is basically this to the rest of the Gang, especially Charlie. Regardless of the few moments they crap on Frank (as they do on each other), it is unquestionable that he is a core member of the Gang and he probably has the most non-confrontational interactions with the others as a result. Especially with Charlie, with whom he both lives, is best friends with and with whom they both have their own strange little act going on.

Sweet Dee in the first season usually plays this role. Actress Kaitlin Olson managed to remove the characterization by the second season, and since then Dee has been just as dumb, belligerent and crass as the rest of the gang. But due to being the Butt-Monkey of the group she is slightly more likely to call the others out on bad behavior, but in later episodes any member of gang can play this role depending on the subject of the episode.

Hanging Around: Played for Black Comedy in "The Great Recession." The Gang finds Frank has hanged himself in Paddy's Pub after losing all his money in a Ponzi scheme. Not only do they not care, but his neck is too thick to break so he's just dangling there. Later, after failing at door-to-door sales he tries it again and only manages to break a light fixture.

"Cavemen vs. Astronauts" Debate
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_49d5dd74
comment
"Cavemen vs. Astronauts" Debate: Frequently employed. The Rat vs. Scorpion argument from the Cold Open of "The Gang Gets Invincible." In "The Gang Solves the Bathroom Debate," the gang spend an entire afternoon arguing about who's allowed to use which bathroom in the bar. "Reynolds v. Reynolds: The Cereal Defense" finds the gang first arguing in a mock trial set in the bar. Frank crashes into Dennis's Land Rover, and causing him to spill a bowl of cereal he happened to be eating on the dashboard; Frank argues that eating a bowl of cereal in a car is irresponsible and Dennis therefore has no right to demand reparation. They are quickly sidetracked by Mac into yet another debate on whether or not Natural Selection and Evolution is real.

Of Corpse He's Alive: In "Dee Gives Birth", Dennis and Dee try to get rid of an apparent corpse that gets put in Dee's hospital room by sticking sunglasses on him and tying his and Dennis's wrists together so that they wave in unison. The similarity to Weekend at Bernie's is acknowledged. Attempted with Rickety Cricket in order for the gang to save their own asses in "The Gang Cracks the Liberty Bell". The gang stick the headless corpse on a horse and top it with a jack o'lantern to ride casually through the town, which startles two passersby badly enough to drop the Liberty Bell.

Leaning on the Fourth Wall
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_4a3e547f
comment
Leaning on the Fourth Wall: "The Gang Tries Desperately to Win an Award" is about the gang trying to get an award for their bar, but it's also about how the show has never won an Emmy. There are a number of meta-references to the show itself and the sitcom genre: Dennis suggests that Mac and Dee get some sexual chemistry, which they both find revolting. The two actors married each other behind the scenes. The gang states that Dee should be less funny and instead be boring and wholesome, because people hate funny women. This is a reference to how Dee was originally intended to be the voice of reason until Kaitlin Olson protested and made the character funnier. Charlie decides to write a song for the bar, because the bar has no song. The show uses stock classical music as its theme. Also referencing "The Nightman Cometh", where Charlie writes a musical, which is generally considered the show's best episode and the one most deserving of an award. The characters discuss the behavior of rival bars, which are all generic tropes used by mainstream sitcoms, and note how the gang does not conform to them. The gang notes that the colors are far too bright in one of the rival bars. Its patrons also react to the bartenders' goings on, laughing or saying "Awwww" in unison, and Dennis notes the weirdness of the fact that they have one black bartender surrounded by whites. Related, the Gang tries to emulate the award-winning bar by getting one Black guy, but they remind each other not to get too many, or they'll become a "Black bar." Dennis and Dee are challenged to do a Philadelphia accent and cannot do it. Neither actor is from Philly or puts on a Philly accent for the show. In fact, only Rob McElhenney actually grew up in the city, and his accent is barely discernible, having spent much of his adult life burying it. "Frank's Brother" has people doubting Frank's age in the flashbacks, saying he looks much younger while it's obvious Frank looks as usual with no different makeup, just a different wig.

Break the Cutie
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_4b316d47
comment
Break the Cutie: Matthew Mara (Rickety Cricket) goes from a clean-cut, mature, and successful priest to a crack-addicted street rat who has lost his mind, full use of his legs, half his larynx and his right eye. All thanks to Dee. In "Mac Bangs Dennis' Mom", Charlie's plan to get revenge on Dennis and have sex with the Waitress causes her to completely break down emotionally. At the end of the episode, she enters Paddy's in a state of total hysteria (compared to the start of the episode, when she was amicable even towards Charlie), and, in a fit of manic rage, delivers one of the most infamous monologues in the series' history ("IT JUST FALLS OFF!!!!"). In a later episode, the gang tries to drive the waitress crazy so that she allows Charlie to stalk her again.

Ingrid Nelson, a former friend of Dee's from school was nicknamed "Fatty Magoo" because of her obesity. Sometime between high school and her debut episode, she lost it all.

comment
It's Always Spring: It's always a sunny, warm day outside, despite the fact that Philadelphia can get quite cold. The pilot for the show was titled "It's Always Sunny on Television," referencing this trope directly. Notable lampshading and subversions include: In one episode, the city braces for a huge storm bearing down on them, but the weather is still perfect, and Frank notes, "It's warm as shit!" The direct-to-DVD Christmas episode has the cast actually start wearing winter clothing, but even then the weather is still sunny. In "The Gang Beats Boggs," the gang arrives in the famously sunny Los Angeles only to note how dreary and overcast it is. So the sunny weather really is specific to Philadelphia.

Incestuous Casting: Invoked a few times in-universe. Dennis and Dee play the Dayman and his love interest, respectively, in "The Nightman Cometh" (Charlie originally cast Dennis as the Nightman in an attempt to avoid this, but Mac begged him to switch parts because the Nightman gets to use karate moves). Dee and Dennis also play extras who are husband and wife in "Mac and Charlie Write a Movie," and when the Gang film Lethal Weapon 6, Dennis plays the character Riggs, who is engaged to Murtaugh's daughter, played by Dee (but Mac takes over the role before the two characters must kiss during their wedding).

Wham Line: In "Hero or Hate Crime?", the gang goes into arbitration over who gets to claim a lottery scratch-off prize; the title refers to Frank saving Mac (who was holding the ticket at the time) from a falling piano by screaming "LOOK OUT, FAGGOT!", alerting him to the danger. At the end of the episode, the lawyer hearing the case makes her decision: Mac's entitled to the money, but only if he's actually gay. He eagerly comes out and claims the winnings, and the Gang assumes that he'll go "back in" now that he has the cash. And then Mac drops a line that changes everything: "I don't know. Maybe...maybe I'll stay out. Yeah. I'm...I'm gay."

Implied Rape: Dennis has a strategy in which he puts a girl in a situation that forces her to have sex with him and she won't say no because of the "implication". While portrayed as very creepy, this is never once referred to as rape through intimidation. Dee also has her own version of the "implication" that has her threatening her dates of False Rape Accusation unless they have sex with her. But she never uses the word rape.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: Early episodes had No Budget, heavily using Paddy's and the back alley for most of the story as well as relying a lot more on conversational humor. By the second season they were doing a lot more location work with large crowds of extras as well as visual gags with props and signs. Charlie was more of an awkward loser than a semi-literate lunatic, Dee is the Only Sane Man, Dennis is vain but not a borderline sexual offender, and Mac is unambiguously heterosexual. The Episode Title Card appeared after the show's title, making one of the show's signature kind of gags practically impossible. Frank wasn't introduced until the first episode of season two. The first season had the characters more plausibly flawed individuals who find themselves getting into increasingly uncomfortable but semi-plausible situations. By the third season they had ramped up into ridiculously awful behavior that makes other criminal types uncomfortable. By season six, "flawed jerks" morphed into "the most pitifully pathetic people on the planet" with episodes like "A Very Sunny Christmas", "Dee Gives Birth" and "Charlie Kelly: King Of The Rats".

Culturally Religious: Mac is Catholic, but only so far as he gets to judge and impose his faith on others. The gang frequently call out how his own debaucherous lifestyle is not befitting a Catholic either.

comment
In the first season, Dee is more often the voice of morality and reason, at least suggesting the moral option and trying to be helpful and supportive. By the second season she becomes just as deranged and pathetic as the guys. This was amended after Kaitlin Olson wanted to do more of "the fun stuff" the boys did and not just have her character boiled down to "Awww, you guyyyys...."

Serial Killer Baiting: Played for laughs in "Mac Is a Serial Killer": Fearing that Mac is sneaking out to murder local blonde women (he's actually in a secret relationship with Carmen, a transgender woman), Dennis and Dee decide to try catching him with Dee posing as a prostitute... which ends with her nearly being recruited by a strange pimp named Pepper Jack, and Dennis having to trade a Fraggle Rock Thermos to get her back.

Mistaken for Gay
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_561dab6b
comment
Mistaken for Gay: In the pilot, Dennis deliberately ramps up his Camp Straight tendencies in order to get more tips and attention from Paddy's gay customers. In "Charlie Has Cancer", a woman at the free clinic assumes Dennis is gay and waiting for his HIV results. In "The Gang Cracks the Liberty Bell," Dennis and Mac's Colonial counterparts are mistaken for "sodomites." In "The High School Reunion Part 2: The Gang's Revenge", Dennis is mistaken for gay by the woman he tries to seduce due to his makeup, girdle, and his use of an accelerated version of the D.E.N.N.I.S. system. In "Charlie and Dee Find Love," Mac is revealed on video to be greased up and wrestling with another man in a position that looks like he's being anally penetrated. Mac tries to protest, but the gang says that there's really no other way to interpret the video.

No Bisexuals: As Mac's Transparent Closet becomes more and more obvious, the rest of the Gang unanimously agree that he's gay. Despite him showing interest in and having sex with women in the early seasons, the possibility of him being bisexual isn't even considered. When Mac finally comes out of the closet, he's gay and not bisexual.

Didn't We Use This Joke Already?: The Cold Open to "The Gang Recycles Their Trash", which is very similar to the dialogue that opens "The Gang Solves the Gas Crisis". Dee even lampshades, "All of this, I've heard all of this before." This was done deliberately by the creators, who got annoyed when a few fans thought they were running out of material.

comment
The Unreveal: In "The High School Reunion", the fact that everyone has to wear name tags means we finally find out Mac's full name. However, the high school didn't even make a name tag for the Waitress. When the Waitress calls Dennis, he asks who it is and says that he doesn't recognize the name. We cut to the Waitress talking to him, but she does not repeat her name, so it remains a mystery.

Disrupting the Theater
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_5a8c9252
comment
Disrupting the Theater: The episode "The Erotic Life of Dennis Reynolds" has a scene where Mac and Frank are sitting in a theater after part of their scheme to make Dennis appear to be Jon Bon Jovi's sexual advisor where they talk loudly, point a laser pointer at the screen, argue with each other, fight with another theater goer, and answer calls from Dennis to get him out of rehab. In "Charlie Kelly: King Of The Rats," Dee takes Charlie to a 3-D movie, where he spends most of the time loudly eating spaghetti and complaining that he can't understand the movie (which he's not even paying attention to). Dialed up to eleven in "Thundergun Express." When the Gang finally get to the movie, they intentionally shout and annoy other theater patrons to get them to move. Dee smells terrible from a trip through the sewers, Mac loudly brags about "hanging dong," and Dennis is busy getting a handjob from a woman he just met. Then Frank calls in a bomb threat and gets the entire movie cancelled.

The two subplots have Mac and Dee attempting to relive the resort's '80s glory days and Charlie hitting it off with an European model, parodying raunchy ski films of that decade.

 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_62434fe2
comment
Sanity Slippage: Every one of the gang undergoes significant mental deterioration over the course of the series. Too much exposure to the gang also does this to Rickety Cricket and Maureen Ponderosa, and, to a lesser extent, the Waitress and the Lawyer.

Bottle Episode
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_62907b90
comment
Bottle Episode: Many "CharDee MacDennis: The Game of Games" and "The Gang Solves the Bathroom Problem" are filmed entirely within the pub and with no additional characters outside of the gang. Season 10's "Charlie Work" is filmed entirely in, in front of, and behind Paddy's Pub, though with additional characters. Season 7's "The Gang Gets Trapped" is filmed almost entirely in a strange family's house that the Gang broke into in hopes of stealing a vase. Season 8's "The Gang Gets Analyzed" is filmed entirely in a psychologist's office. Season 8's "The Gang Dines Out" is filmed entirely in a restaurant. Season 11's "McPoyle vs. Ponderosa: The Trial of the Century" takes place entirely at court. Part two of season 11's "The Gang Goes to Hell" takes place almost entirely in one room on a ship. Season 13's "Charlie's Home Alone" is filmed almost entirely inside the pub and on the front walkway. Season 14's "Waiting for Big Mo" takes place in only one room, the Gang's laser tag base.

Freeze-Frame Bonus
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_62f9d08e
comment
Freeze-Frame Bonus: In "The Gang Saves the Day", each of the main characters imagines how they would ideally react during a convenience-store robbery. Dee's segment sees her become an acclaimed actor as part of her witness protection. We see a short clip of what is apparently the highest-rated sitcom of all time, Covington's House, and during the credits, two men are listed as "Load wipers".

You Go, Girl!: Dee joining in on the football try outs just to prove that a girl can be more fit and capable than Mac and Dennis. She gets farther than either of them, but it didn't change their opinion of her at all. Of course, it doesn't help that she broke her foot right after revealing herself to be a girl.

Gilligan Cut: In "Mac and Charlie: White Trash", with the entire gang (save for Frank, who's fine being lower class) becoming obsessed with coming off as classy and sophisticated. At the public pool, Dennis and Dee are trying to relax: In the episode "Frank Sets Sweet Dee On Fire", Dee is trying to become famous for being a "dirty drunken whore [like Paris Hilton]" by club-hopping every night. Dennis, however, is the one who builds a reputation around the Philadelphia clubs, and thus proposes to use his connections to make Dee famous: Several episodes incorporate a Gilligan cut as a Smash Cut to the title card after the Cold Open:

 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_68fd2d6c

Coax Them Out of the Closet: Mac is an Armored Closet Gay who sometimes seems to be trying to coax himself out with his constant double entendres and euphemisms. The rest of the Gang tries to get him to admit it for years. In "The Gang Goes To Hell Part 1," he tries to tell a gay couple that being gay is a sin and they manage to coax him out in about five minutes (though he goes right back in the next episode before coming out once and for all in "Hero Or Hate Crime?").

Deconstructive Parody
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_6dcbe9aa
comment
Deconstructive Parody: Of the traditional Sitcom. A notable example is the Flanderization, which is justified in-universe as every member of the Gang is a delinquent at best and are so co-dependent on one another that their terribleness feeds into one another, further degenerating their characters. It doesn't help that they all have drug problems, mainly alcoholism. The usual sitcom jokes that rely on Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male and Double Standard Rape: Female on Male are averted and occasionally deconstructed. Dee is as frequent a victim of Slapstick shenanigans as her male friends, and her sexual offenses, along with those of her male counterparts, are not excused at all. Also, the double standard of victimization are treated seriously for some of the characters, such as Charlie and Dennis. Episodes such as "The Gang Tries To Win An Award" and "Old Lady House: A Situation Comedy" are more direct shots at stereotypical sitcoms and mock Laugh Tracks and other sitcom clichés. Charlie's pining for the Waitress can be seen as a deconstruction of the standard Will They or Won't They? subplot in sitcoms. The relationship itself is one-sided on Charlie's part as the Waitress genuinely hates Charlie, and Charlie, not getting the hint, goes out of his way to stalk the Waitress and even invade her home. When they do get together in Season 12, it is incredibly short-lived because Charlie is unwilling to invest time in raising a child, which implies that his love for her is rather shallow. Of Status Quo Is God and Negative Continuity. The status quo will be enforced no matter what, but the characters either can’t stand it or find some relief that they don’t have to try/be on their own, and the bad events aren’t actually forgotten. Cricket’s life gets worse and the Gang don’t take responsibility for it ever, Maureen and Bill get their own Sanity Slippage after coming into contact with them, Dee is still suicidal even after season nine, the twofer of Rape as Backstory revealed and nightmare with Mac in the suburbs makes Dennis dissociate more, Charlie increasingly resents his mom for smothering him while she ignores Uncle Jack’s creepiness, and Mac gets needier as he struggles with his sexuality and religion.

Like an Old Married Couple: Mac and Dennis are described this way In-Universe. In "Mac and Dennis Move to the Suburbs", the two get a house together and act like a couple who's marriage is crumbling. There's even a scene when Mac confronts Dennis on where he was during the day, not unlike a spouse accusing the other of cheating on them.

Casting Gag
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_6ec4232f
comment
Casting Gag: Mac is portrayed as an Armored Closet Gay who uses homophobia in a flimsy attempt to deny his own homosexuality. Rob McElhenney's mother is a lesbian and his childhood was split between being raised by his father and his mother and her partner. His two younger brothers are also gay. Dennis is a sociopathic, vain narcissist whose self-worth outweighs any actual intelligence. Glenn Howerton is a Juilliard graduate who considered a career in Aerospace Engineering before deciding to go into acting. Frank is a greedy, gun-happy, cutthroat Republican businessman. Danny DeVito is a Bernie Sanders-supporting progressive who's consistently endorsed him in all of his runs for public office and has frequently been a campaign surrogate for him, in addition to his philanthropy for small theatres. One character called the Waitress is Charlie's single-minded obsession; he's a Stalker with a Crush who constantly badgers her for dates. The Waitress, in turn, is rude, sarcastic, and dismissive of Charlie, often openly flirting with his friends to get revenge on him or simply treating him like dirt, although he never gets the hint. Charlie is played by Charlie Day, and the Waitress is played by Mary Elizabeth Ellis. The two have been Happily Married since 2006 (a year after the show began) and have a child together. In a similar vein, Mac (played by Rob McElhenney) often bullies Dee (played by Kaitlin Olson), the Butt-Monkey of the Paddy's Pub gang, and the two of them are frequently at each other's throats. When they're asked to act out a Will They or Won't They? scenario to entice customers they very adamantly have no chemistry. In real life, the pair started dating while appearing on the show together and have since gotten married and have had two children as well. Charlie is a huge Philadelphia Eagles fan while Charlie Day himself is actually a fan of the New England Patriots, making the events of "Charlie's Home Alone" and "The Gang Wins the Big Game" very ironic.

One Dialogue, Two Conversations
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_71152dd
comment
One Dialogue, Two Conversations: Occasionally the show will get some mileage from a sustained misunderstanding that continues during a conversation and persists long after a conversation has concluded. In "The Gang Gets Racist", Terrell gets a whole monologue about an experience he had at a club, in which he met a Latino man who was giving "the crazy eyes", so Terrell "made the first move", took him to the back alley, and "tore his ass apart". The gangs walk away thinking that Terrell is a Scary Black Man, when really Terrell is just describing when he had sex with a strange man in an alley. In "The Gang Spies Like U.S.", Charlie knows neither that Mac and Dennis are stealing the Chinese fish factory's Wi-Fi, nor that "cream pie" is also a name for a sex act (and therefore a search term for pornography). He therefore comes to the conclusion that Mac and Dennis are planning on starting a bakery with the Chinese and asks them why they haven't asked them to make cream pies with him instead. Then he starts talking about feeding his cream pies to children...

Bread, Eggs, Breaded Eggs: An elderly, African-American bit character debuts in Season 11, and since no one knows his name, Dennis calls him "Old Man" and Mac calls him "Black Man". Eventually, the name "Old Black Man" sticks.

In-Series Nickname
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_7360806f
comment
In-Series Nickname: "Sweet Dee" for Dee. Charlie gets a janitor job at a local high school in season six; the students take to calling him Professor. Mac is a nickname; his real full name is Ronald McDonald. Mac, Charlie and Dee had derisive nicknames from the popular kids in high school; Mac was Ronnie the Rat (because he was a "narc"), Charlie was Dirtgrub (because of his poor hygiene), and Dee was the Aluminium Monster (because of her back brace). "Rickety Cricket" came about due to his having had loud, rickety leg braces as a kid; the gang are naturally the only people who still call him this, to the total exclusion of his real name, Matthew Mara. Ingrid Nelson, a former friend of Dee's from school was nicknamed "Fatty Magoo" because of her obesity. Sometime between high school and her debut episode, she lost it all. Dee still desperately tries to keep the nickname going but is usually shot down by other people lampshading how it no longer makes sense.

Jerkass Ball: Charlie at the end of "Charlie and Dee Find Love". After revealing his romance with Ruby was a gambit to get the Waitress to lift her restraining order, which is in-character for him, he then, for no real reason, kicks the sobbing Ruby while she's down by high-handedly berating her for acting like a rich slut in front of all her family and friends. Not only was Ruby the picture of sweetness, Charlie's usually portrayed as the most moral and compassionate of the group by far.

Dennis also tries to use it in "Old Lady House: A Situation Comedy" between Jack and Bonnie Kelly (the fact that they're siblings does not deter him). He tries to turn it into a Love Triangle once Frank gets involved. Needless to say, Dennis seems to be a big fan of this trope.

Real Life Writes the Plot

comment
Real Life Writes the Plot: According to The Other Wiki, the character of Green Man and the setting for his introduction in "The Gang Gets Invincible." Rob McElhenney said that the idea for Green Man came about when, after attending a Philadelphia Eagles game, a friend of his suddenly stripped down and donned a green lycra bodysuit in the middle of the parking lot. He ran around the lot and gave everyone he came across a high five, which created a huge outburst of excitement, as everyone wanted to be photographed with the man. This event prompted chants of "Green Man! Green Man!", which supposedly went on for several hours, and inspired McElhenney to incorporate the character into the show somehow. Kaitlin Olson's pregnancy was explained as Dee reviving her effort to become a surrogate mother for cash.

Mistaken for Racist: "The Gang Gets Racist" has the gang encounter Dee's new black friend and constantly blunder into racially insensitive statements, only to immediately cringe at the realization. In "The Gang Goes Jihad," the gang constantly police each other's statements so that they don't come across as anti-semites, even though there's no one else around to hear them. The B plot in "Mac and Dennis: Manhunters" Dee and Charlie are trying to decide which body to eat at the morgue and they worry about being racist because they both think the white guy looks tastier.

Celebrity Paradox: The episode "The Gang Wrestles for the Troops" opens with the gang watching a WWF wrestling match and expressing their fandom for the wrestlers of the '80s, mentioning many real-life WWF wrestlers. Later in the episode, Dennis, Mac, and Charlie attend a local amateur wrestling show and hire the star of the show, Da'Maniac, to be in their own show. Da'Maniac is played by professional wrestler Roddy Piper, who was very big in the '80s. Despite this, he is treated like a completely different person. In the Season 6 Episode "The Gang Buys a Boat," Mac and Dennis want to throw some "P Diddy-style parties" on their boat. Dee creates a "P Diddy boat dance" while listening to the Notorious B.I.G. song "Mo Money Mo Problems," which Diddy (then known as Puff Daddy) was featured in. However, in the Season 8 episode "Charlie's Mom Has Cancer," Sean "Diddy" Combs appears as a guest actor, playing Dr. Jinx, a church gardener who claims to be a practitioner of homeopathic herbal medicine. The tie-in book has Mac mention how awesome Arnold Schwarzenegger was in "that movie where the weird-looking little guy played his twin brother". That "weird-looking little guy" plays Frank.

The Alcoholic: The waitress really has a drinking problem. Presumably Artemis, who says that she doesn't remember most evenings in "Who Got Dee Pregnant?" Dee's high school drama teacher. The only reason he was so inspirational back then was because he was drunk all the time, and he's lost any charm or drive he used to have, as Dee discovers. The gang notes that Country Mac is never without a can of beer in his hand that he drinks from. They suspect that's probably why he fell from his motorcycle which ended up killing him. The entire gang, minus Frank, realize that they're alcoholics who will go through terrible withdrawals if they stop drinking. Being drunk is their normal state.

Continuity Cavalcade: "The High School Reunion" is just wall-to-wall references to past episodes, bringing back a lot of one-off characters and referencing things that happened before the series and the like. In "Thunder Gun Express," Frank tells a number of stories of events from previous episodes to a boat full of Asian tourists. "The Gang Recycles Their Trash" is entirely based on continuity nods. The gang starts rehashing their old jokes, causing Dee to keep asking, "Haven't we done this before?" In response, the the gang starts actively recreating some of their past schemes. Many of the jokes from past episodes are recreated with a new twist. "Frank Falls Out the Window" features a range of references to previous episodes. Frank and Charlie make Grilled Charlies and Rum Ham before Frank falls out the window and thinks that it's 2006. The gang tries to reenact scenes from early episodes with a new twist to convince Frank that it's still 2006 and get him to give them all his money. Frank gets flashbacks to the original scenes until he finally figures out that it's the present day.

Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist: All of the main characters have Skewed Priorities to the extreme, and will go down wild tangents based on how it affects them. You feel sorry for the serial killer who crosses paths with the gang. The only positive side is that they are generally horrible to each other and the mistreatment of innocent people is framed as horrible too, and more often the main characters end up the butt of the joke.

Mac's cousin Mac turns out to be gay, much to the collective acceptance of The Gang. Well, everybody except Mac. Eventually, Mac himself.

Inherently Funny Words: "RUM HAM!" Whenever child molestation comes up, the show tends to use the word "diddle". Supposedly to undercut how heavy the topic is.

Dramatic Thunder: In "The Gang Goes to Hell", Dennis pursues a young woman on a cruise ship, but he comes off more as a stalker/rapist than anything. When he finally talks to the girl, he flirts with her in a hallway and tells her things like "I've been watching you" and "There's nowhere to go", all while a violent storm punctuates everything he says.

comment
Reality Is Unrealistic: In "Mac and Charlie Die" (part 1) the two characters attempt to destroy a car with a hand grenade. It doesn't even come close, as hand grenades are for anti-personnel purposes, not high-yield explosives. They then buy a handgun and try to Shoot the Fuel Tank, which they are stunned to see has no effect other than leaving a few bullet holes in the car body.

Never Bring a Knife to a Gun Fight: Mac argues that his sword is a better weapon than a pistol because he will dodge incoming fire as he approaches for a slash. Charlie shows that he can defeat that tactic simply by moving his pistol slightly.

Bait-and-Switch: The episode "The Gang Goes to the Jersey Shore", made during the height of Jersey Shore, immediately sets up the viewer to believe there will be several Take Thats at the guido lifestyle portrayed in the aforementioned show. In fact, the actual episode has nothing to do with this and actually portrays guidos as heroic, friendly and good-natured in their sole appearance in the episode, instead focusing on all the other horrors of the Shore. In "The Maureen Ponderosa Wedding Massacre", it looks like Ryan McPoyle is giving Liam McPoyle oral sex, but it turns out he was just groveling.

Absurdly Spacious Sewer: In "Thunder Gun Express". Dee gets trapped and ends up being drenched in shit. Referenced in "Dee Gives Birth" when Frank and Charlie admit to going in the sewer frequently to look for treasure, grossing out Dennis and Mac. In "The Gang Gets Held Hostage" we see the air ducts above Paddy's Pub are incredibly complex, even containing Charlie's hideaway the 'Bad Room'.

What the Hell Is That Accent?
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_8829dfa0
comment
What the Hell Is That Accent?: In an isolation tank, Dennis has a vision of a British version of himself imparting wisdom. A scene later, he bursts into Dee's apartment using a different and really awful British accent. The rest of the gang stop him and ask what accent he's trying to do. Dennis admits that it sounded better in his head. In "Char Dee Mac Denis 2: Electric Boogaloo," Level 2 requires the players to spin a globe and speak in the accent of wherever they land for the entire round. Mac and Charlie land on Brazil and can't do it so they end up doing one that sounds more like Los Angeles Mexican. Dennis and Dee get Philadelphia and not only is Dee's accent not even close to Philadelphia, it doesn't sound like anything real.

Fetishes Are Weird: Subverted in the season seven premiere. Dee hangs outs with Frank's fiancee, a hooker named Roxy, and is extremely impressed to find out that Tiger Woods is a client of hers. Then, Dee finds out that the client isn't actually Tiger Woods, and is just a random black guy who likes "foot shit". Dee's disgusted at first... until Roxy reveals how much "Tiger Woods" pays her just to rub her feet. This makes Dee instantly decide to become a "foot girl", which she proudly says to the Gang at the end. They more or less react like they would to anything Dee says.

Finger-Snapping Street Gang: In the episode "The Gang Sells Out", after Frank gets back together his childhood gang to try to dissuade a restaurant chain from buying a rival property, they are shown snapping their fingers in unison a few times. Rather than making them look intimidating, it's done to highlight how out-of-touch and old the gang members have become, to the point that families mistake them for performers and give them cash.

The answer comes with "The Gang Sells Out", in which the executive mentions he was in the pub, but the owner's weren't, and the guests seemed to be pouring their own beer. Dennis confirms this is what they do because they are very busy.

Lies to Children: "A Very Sunny Christmas" reveals that Mac's and Charlie's families had very interesting "Christmas traditions". Mac's family would have to go to a strange house and open all the gifts and leave before the family who lived there could catch them (this was Mac's father's rationalization for why there were never presents at the Mac household—another family had stolen theirs in a big loop) and several Santas would come to cheer up Charlie's mother on Christmas morning (read: customers seeking Mrs. Kelly for her services as a prostitute).

Self-Serving Memory

comment
Self-Serving Memory: In "Who Got Dee Pregnant?", the gang tries to find out the answer to the title by a recalling events from Halloween night, leading to a "Rashomon"-Style series of stories. Mac remembers being more of a badass who helped Charlie beat up on a dude. Dennis remembers the peacock lady being more interested in him and scoring with her and Charlie thinks he made out with The Waitress. Dennis wasn't as popular back in high school as he thought he was, mainly because he'd claim to be a golden god (metaphorically speaking) while having nothing to back up his claim. In "Underage Drinking: A National Concern", he calls the rest of the gang out for over-romanticizing their high school experiences. The gang dances at the end of "High School Reunion 2". At first, we see a choreographed dance number. Then it cuts to how they're actually dancing and it looks like a chaotic mess. They are later surprised that no one else liked their dance.

Beautiful Sexual Assault Victim
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_93f7e79f
comment
Beautiful Sexual Assault Victim: Zig-Zagged in "Charlie Got Molested." Mac is offended when he learns that Charlie and the McPoyle twins were molested by their Creepy Gym Coach, but he was "passed over," since he was way cuter than any of them as a child. He even goes as far as trying to seduce the coach as a way to validate himself. However, Mac does some research and learns that sexual abuse often has far more to do with power and vulnerability than the victim's attractiveness. The gang later finds out that the whole molestation story was a Blackmail scheme created by the McPoyles—not that anyone would have wanted to molest Charlie, who was rather deranged and off-putting as a child. In "The Gang Buys a Boat," Dennis describes how he'll seduce women with his new boat, but his plan is just increasingly blatant Sexual Extortion. An old woman standing nearby looks on in horror, causing him to scoff and say "Don't you look at me like that. You certainly wouldn't be in any danger."

Villainous Breakdown
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_957e5fc2
comment
Villainous Breakdown: Dennis experiences these a few times. When he's rejected by his old fraternity, he becomes increasingly unhinged, screaming in harsh falsetto that they're all "idiots!" and he's "a goddamn legend!" When he's rejected by the wife of the man who had sex with his prom date at his high school reunion, he rushes out to his car fetches items including ropes and duct tape. When questioned, he begins screaming that he needs his "tools" and that he needs to "bind and be bound." When he discovers that he's getting lower and lower rates in a dating website, he increasingly becomes obsessed in a quest of affirmation as a “five-star man.� He coaxes his dates into giving him good rates (effectively scaring them away), tries to apologize to the waitress (and ends up insulting her), and finally storms at Paddy's like crazy, shouting all the girls out since he doesn't need their approval. Reaches its terrifying apex in "Mac and Dennis Move to the Suburbs." The titular scenario eventually drives Dennis to utter insanity, to the point where he is genuinely prepared to kill Mac in a blind rage because he can't deal with him anymore.

Tuckerization: Many characters in the initial seasons were named for friends and acquaintances of the creators: Dennis Reynolds was named in honor of several friends of Rob McElhenny, two named Dennis and one with the surname of Reynolds. The McPoyles were named after a friend of Charlie Day. He's expressed remorse that the characters have become so infamous and sullied the name. Sweet Dee's name was taken from Tom Morello's nickname for his wife Denise, whom McElhenny met at a party. The real Sweet Dee was not happy about it, and McElhenny has said he had no idea the character would become so famous and has felt years of regret for stealing her name.

Vulgar Humor: For a while their ads for the show featured people simply listing off every single offensive and taboo topic that has been shown on the series, ending with the reader saying that they most certainly would never want to watch it.

Riddle for the Ages: "Mac and Dennis Buy a Timeshare" has Frank who's managed to get stuck inside of a playground coil that he can't get out of (which everyone understandably asks how that happened), but never has it explained just how he got into it. What is the Waitress's real name? Or the Lawyer's? Or the waiter at Gugino's?

Never My Fault: No one in the gang willingly admits their mistakes, often resulting in Insane Troll Logic to dance around it. The episode "The Gang Squashes Their Beefs" has the group attempt to resolve lingering rivalries and conflicts with other characters, which had somewhat good intentions but trying to do it with so many people at once and insisting that all their encounters were equal resulted in chaos.

Idiot Savant: Charlie in many episodes. It's occasionally revealed that underneath Charlie's dopey exterior is a Jerkass Magnificent Bastard. In "Sweet Dee Dates a Retarded Person," he's a musical prodigy. He writes an entire musical in a later episode. He engineers a series of gambits in "Mac Bangs Dennis' Mom," "Charlie Has Cancer" and "Charlie and Dee Find Love" in efforts to bang the Waitress. In "The Gang Exploits a Miracle," he becomes an effective Charismatic preacher. In "Charlie Rules the World," Charlie becomes the most powerful player in an MMO, turns Dee into his personal slave and nearly takes control of Paddy's Pub. In "Charlie and Dee Find Love", Dennis—in what seems to be one of the few benevolent moments in his character arc—keeps an eye on Charlie's budding relationship for fear that the rich girl Charlie met is using him for some cruel prank, when it turns out she honestly loved Charlie, and Charlie was actually using her as part of an underhanded plan to get with the Waitress. In "Charlie Work", he manages to figure out the Gang's newest overly convoluted scheme just based on context clues and past experience with them, after which he manages to get a near-perfect score for the health inspection despite the state the bar is in thanks to the current scheme, help them accomplish their scheme, as well as give Dee payback for ruining the perfect score all at the same time.

Rewatch Bonus
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_97926168
comment
Rewatch Bonus: In "The D.E.N.N.I.S. System", Dennis tells Charlie to win a prize at the Waitress' carnival booth (where she works) and give it to "the bustiest woman [he] can find" (on the grounds that "[his] indifference to the Waitress will only make [him] more attractive to her"). When they get to the fair, it turns out that there are no prizes at her booth, and we find out that Charlie instead, again at Dennis' behest, paid a carny to stab the Waitress so he could save her. It's possible to miss the fact that the Waitress having a booth with no prizes forced Dennis to make an adjustment to the plan, presumably off-screen, on one's first view of the episode. "Who Got Dee Pregnant?" is even funnier upon rewatch because you know that Dee's lying about one of the Gang being the father of her child. In "A Cricket's Tale", Rickety Cricket hallucinates that a full grown dog is a beautiful human woman named Belle. He falls in love with her, and at the end of the episode, makes out with "Belle" in front of his brother and father, much to their disgust. Watching the episode a second time makes some of Belle's dog-like qualities more obvious; for example, she claims that Danny kicks at her if he catches her sleeping at work and calls her a bitch. The way she puts her hands on Cricket's chest when they make out is also very similar to the way a dog does when playing with a human.

 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_98576799
comment
Throw the Dog a Bone: Mac becomes a Butt-Monkey in the later seasons of the show, and in particular the contradiction between his sexuality and religion is a common punchline. That is, until it's time for him to come out to his homophobic father, which results in an incredibly emotional dance routine for Luther, Frank, and other prisoners. It's treated 100% seriously and becomes one of the most heart-wrenching scenes in the entire show.

Money, Dear Boy
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_98a19d7f
comment
Money, Dear Boy: An in-universe example. One episode has Frank getting mugged and chasing off his would-be attackers with guns. He's invited to go on TV and tell his story, which turns him into a minor Philadelphia celebrity when he insists that everyone buy as many firearms as possible, whipping up the city (and the Gang themselves) into a frenzy about their Second Amendment rights. It all culminates with Frank organizing a major rally at City Hall, with everyone marching with their new guns. At the end of the episode, Frank tells the others that he has no intention of going to the rally. He then reveals that he doesn't care about the Second Amendment at all—it turns out that he had bought a stake in Gunther's Guns, and deliberately manipulated everyone by playing on their fear to make himself a fortune. The show concludes with Frank, having recently purchased hundreds of water filters, parlaying his celebrity to hawk them by claiming that Philly's water is "90% toxins."

Foreshadowing
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_9d12bbc1
comment
Foreshadowing: Some examples include: "High School Reunion 1 & 2" Old high school friend Schmitty is mysteriously absent at the high school reunion, but Mac remarks that he'll probably show up at the last possible second to take the most disgusting girl present home. Guess what happens. Mac tries to tell Charlie they're not going to get wedgied because they're adults now. They get wedgied. After Dee sings "Baby Got Back", showing off her actual back, the Gang point out that the song is about "big black female booty" and talk about how awesome they think black butts are. Dennis later tries to sleep with a black woman and comments on her butt. "The Anti-Social Network," Dennis says, "I could be a man with a fistful of hammers, a trunk full of duct tape and zip ties." In "The High School Reunion part 2", he reveals he actually has a trunk full of duct tape and zip ties. In a flashback in "Charlie Has Cancer", Mac punches Dee in the face when she grabs him from behind. This is foreshadowing for him doing the same thing to Carmen in public. In "Hundred Dollar Baby," Dee, in a steroid-induced rage, says "I'm going to paralyze that bitch!" about the girl she is set to fight against (the daughter of Frank's old boxing rival). At the end of the episode, Frank ends up punching his rival, who falls into his daughter; when she falls, her neck directly lands a stool and a snapping noise is heard, heavily implying that she ended up paralyzed after all. In the season fifteen finale, while Dennis partakes in the Friendship Moment, he’s also apart from the walky group hug that the others do. “Dennis Takes A Mental Health Day� shows his fears that they’re family enough without him, but goes to be with them anyway.

Reunion Revenge: Zig Zagged. Dee uses this as justification for hanging out with the old cool clique in "The High School Reunion" when she really just wants to be on their good side. So the rest of the gang try to get their revenge without her. They later kick her out of the clique because they thought she slept with Cricket. And the whole gang plot their revenge together; all for different reasons and fail miserably twice, one time without even realizing it.

 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_9f9b5a20
comment
Arbitrarily Large Bank Account: Frank is at least a multi-millionaire from shady business deals, and in principle could solve most of the gang's problems with some cash. But he can be quite stingy and will hold it over the others when it suits him. Compared to the first season that didn't have him while utilizing Perpetual Poverty, this serves to allow the money to serve a purpose when needed without changing the working class nature of the setting.

We Should Get Another Tape: the Gang apparently owns only one tape for use in their camcorder. Bits and pieces of previous videos they've recorded appear in the blank spots between cuts or after the tape plays through, including: The Jihad Tape, Mac's Public Access News Show, Dennis's Election Campaign Speech, Dee getting set on fire, the Fight Milk Advert, Dee's Leprechaun Impression, Project Badass, etc. It's especially funny considering that Dennis has an entire wardrobe full of hundreds of home-made sex tapes on VHS.

Rule of Funny: Characters will tend to pick up or drop the role of Only Sane Man to suit an episode's premise.

Of Status Quo Is God and Negative Continuity. The status quo will be enforced no matter what, but the characters either can’t stand it or find some relief that they don’t have to try/be on their own, and the bad events aren’t actually forgotten. Cricket’s life gets worse and the Gang don’t take responsibility for it ever, Maureen and Bill get their own Sanity Slippage after coming into contact with them, Dee is still suicidal even after season nine, the twofer of Rape as Backstory revealed and nightmare with Mac in the suburbs makes Dennis dissociate more, Charlie increasingly resents his mom for smothering him while she ignores Uncle Jack’s creepiness, and Mac gets needier as he struggles with his sexuality and religion.

Lonely Rich Kid
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_a7016efe
comment
Lonely Rich Kid: Spoiled Brats as well, but Dee and Dennis had a pretty shitty childhood despite being rich. Barbara kept humiliating Dee and crushing her dreams/telling her that she was a mistake while Dennis had it drilled into him that he was both a god and helpless, Frank emotionally terrorised them both, neither got help for decreasing mental health, Dee is clearly nervous claiming they had a normal childhood, and even when they’re adults and are deeply toxic to each other (and all but actively incestuous), they’ll still cling like little kids if they’re distressed. It’s telling that they both think the Jersey Shore vacations were the happiest days of their lives, and even then Word of God had their first kiss with each other..

Karma Houdini: Just about anyone who's even more of a Jerkass than the gang and succeeds in screwing one or more of them over. The gang themselves arguably apply when they ruin any character who has an even bigger Butt-Monkey status.

First World Problems

comment
First-World Problems: Dennis and Dee grew up fairly wealthy because of how rich Frank was, which gives them a specific type of entitlement and arrogance over Mac and Charlie. Mac in particular was quite angered that Dennis and Dee were looking to manipulate the system to get on welfare, saying it's for the handicapped or those addicted to drugs.

Only Known by Their Nickname
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_a7850fbf
comment
Only Known by Their Nickname: Mac was only known as Mac for a long time in the show. It wasn't until the seventh season finale "High School Reunion" that his full name was revealed, Ronald McDonald, complete with dramatic name tag placement. It is an Embarrassing Name for him, one he was hoping to never go by again. Rickety Cricket, which he hates. When Charlie and Dee are waiting impatiently for him to come back from selling their cocaine, and he knocks on the door saying "It's Matt... Matthew Mara!" they don't even recognise the name. The Waitress is only known by the gang as The Waitress. In "Charlie and Dee Find Love" Dennis gets a phone call but doesn't recognize the name, asking "Who?" about three times before exasperatedly shouts, "Next time, just call yourself 'the Waitress'!"

Things are complicated even further once the parents are added into the picture. Dennis and Dee's mom Barbara had sex with Mac, leading Dennis to try and seduce both Mac and Charlie's mothers as revenge. The season two finale reveals that the twins' biological father isn't Frank but Bruce Mathis, with whom Barbara was having an affair some thirty years previous. Around the same time, Frank was also cheating on her with Bonnie Kelly, making him a likely contender for Charlie's absent father. Frank and Bonnie have an on-off sexual relationship throughout the series, and Bonnie also sleeps with Luther (Mac's dad) on at least one occasion, all while living with Mac's mom in a Les Yay filled relationship.

comment
Bait-and-Switch Performance: A non-singing variation: In part 2 of the season 7 finale, the gang implements "Plan B" of their plan to get back at everyone who treated them as losers in high school at their high school reunion. It is an elaborate dance sequence that they break into in the middle of the dance floor. It first seems to be going really well and the crowd seems to be loving it, only for the show to quick cut to reality, revealing that the good performance was all in their heads, and that the gang is actually drunk, barely moving, uncoordinated, and only embarrassing themselves further.

Soundtrack Dissonance
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_abad35b4
comment
Soundtrack Dissonance: All the theme music is easy listening production music. At the end of "Frank's Pretty Woman", Roy Orbison's song plays over the gang dragging a dead prostitute into the hallway and ditching her. In "The Gang Goes to the Jersey Shore", Dennis and Dee are forced at gunpoint to participate in an armed robbery and to bury a doctor killed in cold blood while The Go-Go's "Vacation" plays in the background. "The Gang Saves The Day" sees Dennis smother Jackie Denardo with a pillow, killing her to the sound of "Walking on Sunshine" by Katrina & The Waves. On more than one occasion, Tchaikovsky's "Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy" plays over a dramatic scene. The ending to "Charlie's Mom Has Cancer" has Dennis and Dee digging up their dead mother's grave to find some supposed money, only to open the casket and merely find their mom's skeleton. The two break down upon seeing her while Frank gloats that he got them back for calling him senile. The cheery, upbeat "Clique Chic" plays over this.

Idiosyncratic Episode Naming
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_ac4ac8e5
comment
Idiosyncratic Episode Naming: Episode names are usually excessively blunt in describing the plot of the episode, usually with "The Gang..." (ex. "The Gang Dines Out") or specifying the key character(s) in focus (ex. "Mac and Dennis Break Up"). This is often used as a joke, where the first act break will have a character say something related to the title, if not the actual title, and then cut to the title card.

Armor-Piercing Response: In the Season 12 episode "Dennis' Double Life", Charlie tries, for what seems like the millionth time, to get in the good graces of The Waitress. He invites her to his apartment (and she's literally making him pay for her time) and explains to her how great her life could be, in his view, if they were together. But he does so by hurling insults at her about her current life situation, and essentially telling her "You wouldn't be a piece of shit anymore if you hooked up with me":

Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse: The Gang's various childhood trauma is played with actual tragedy (Dennis's and Charlie's respective CSA, Mac's internalised homophobia and abandonment history, Dee's relentless abuse from her family) but they still choose to deal with it in terrible ways, never grow or learn, and constantly hurt and stalk and assault everyone else.

comment
In "The Great Recession", Mac and Dennis are inspired by a restaurant they frequent to start "Paddy's Dollars", an incentive to get customers to use real money to buy Paddy's Dollars that only work at Paddy's Pub. The plan backfires when Mac and Dennis forget to charge the customers for buying more Paddy's Dollars, and the customers just keep recycling the Paddy's Dollars without actually spending any real money. The look on Mac and Dennis's faces when they realize they screwed up is definitely Oh, Crap!.

Trademark Favorite Food
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_ad641426
comment
Trademark Favorite Food: The McPoyles have the strangest fascination with milk, going as far as to pour it over their wounds. They also pour it on one another and themselves in celebration at parties, as if it's champagne. There are a few references to Charlie's favorite food being "milk steak," which is apparently a steak boiled in milk. He also appears to be addicted to cheese, to the point where if he's near any, he can't stop himself from eating it. Frank seems to like eggs (usually hardboiled) and is referenced in a few episodes. His interest in eggs occasionally goes beyond him just eating them; for example in "Paddy's Pub: Home of the Original Kitten Mittens", he creates a green-painted "Paddy's Pub" egg as merchandise for the bar.

Sexual Extortion: The end result of Dennis's "implication" and Dee's "insinuation." In the former, Dennis implies that women he's on a boat with would always have sex with him because he implies he'll murder them otherwise. In the latter, Dee insinuates that she'll make a False Rape Accusation against any man who flirts with her but isn't willing to go all the way.

Accidental Misnaming: As part of a scheme to get Dennis and Bon Jovi in the same place at the same time, Frank pretends to be an entrepreneur who wants to buy the Philadelphia Soul (an arena football team of which Bon Jovi shared ownership at the time). During the meeting, Frank refers to him as "Von Joni" and then "Bovine Joni." In "The Gang Beats Boggs", Dee repeatedly confuses baseball legend Wade Boggs with Dukes of Hazzard character Boss Hogg. In "Who Got Dee Pregnant?", Mac describes his costume as "That character from The Lord of the Rings, Viggio Morgenstein."

Tap on the Head: Charlie's preferred solution to dealing with a journalist he kidnapped — knock him out with a bottle, inducing Easy Amnesia about the whole thing.

Pink Is Erotic: In The Gang Buys A Roller Rink, Dennis is called to bring a briefcase to Frank for business purposes and the two get into a misunderstanding as Dennis wanted to see Frank doing "what he does at work" so they can work together, but Frank was actually using a prostitute and needed Dennis to provide viagra. The scene cuts to a very happy Frank paying the prostitute and a traumatized Dennis sitting in a pink chair next to pink flowers, having watched Frank and the prostitute the entire time because he thought Dennis wanted to watch him "doing what he does at work". Before the scene, there's a painting behind Dennis that has shades of pink and there are pink napkins in Frank's hotel room.

It's eventually subverted when it's revealed that Pete had social anxiety and depression. He never killed or ate anyone, and his fearsome reputation is a product of the gang's gossip.

Genius Serum: Subverted when Charlie, known for being the least-intelligent of the main cast, gets involved in an experiment to test an intelligence drug. He suddenly seems to develop extreme intelligence overnight, reading tons of books in all sorts of language despite normally being illiterate, all while also becoming a Jerkass in the process. However, it's then revealed that the drug did nothing- Charlie was under the Placebo Effect, and not only did he not comprehend anything he read or said, but the only real effect it had was making him look down on his friends and family.

Epic Fail: The gang specializes in having their plans fall apart in spectacular fashion. Season 3 episode "The Gang Sells Out": When a businessman offers to buy Paddy's Pub, but pulls the deal off the table after two minutes of dealing with the gang's insanity, Frank gets his "Yellow Jacket Boys" from the 1950s to help. First, they try to create the impression that there's a "seedy element" near the businessman's new prospective buy, which doesn't work because all Frank and the Yellow Jackets do is play jacks and sing. Then they try to intimidate the businessman at his house, and the allegedly "crazy" Hawky takes one step and immediately dies of a heart attack.

Take That!: Dennis and Mac deal pretty vicious jabs to Sex and the City in "Who Pooped the Bed?". "The Gang Desperately Tries to Win an Award" has some jokes regarding award shows and the stereotypical sitcoms that get nominated. "Old Lady House: A Situation Comedy" is yet another mockery of traditional sitcoms. The episode ruthlessly takes apart traditional three-camera sitcoms, demonstrating how they utilize laugh tracks and musical cues to manipulate audiences into laughing at situations that would otherwise seem boring or even disturbing. The other sitcom conventions, such as Drop-In Character and "Everybody Laughs" Ending, are cruelly subverted with Dee's bad luck and need for attention. Dennis is one big insult to pick-up artists and guys who cover up their abuse in “acceptable� language, showing how fucked up, pathetic and creepy they really are.

Dysfunctional Family: It’s a frequent joke in fandom that the Reynolds are funhouse Roys, right down to the respective children being doomed from birth. The book has Frank with an Oedipus complex, resenting a father that hit him and claiming his mother was his first love. Pop Pop was a Nazi Grandpa who groped Dee. Barbara treated Dee as worse than the pet, and Dennis has a Trauma Button of older women in sexual situations partly because of her. Frank emotionally tortured both of his kids, and exploited them as adults. Dennis and Dee are both serial rapists who are intensely codependent, with Dennis conditioning Dee to be his other half, and Dee mothering Dennis to keep power over him.

Hypocritical Humor: A frequent source for laughs. In "The Gang Reignites the Rivalry", Dennis loudly rants about how other people have no respect as he destroys a near-stranger's house, and reprises his rant after the person whose house he destroyed comes back upset. Mac accuses Carmen's husband of being gay because he married a post-op transgender woman, when he himself had sex with Carmen pre-op. In "The Gang Dances Their Asses Off", a hobo tells Rickety Crick (also homeless) to "Shut up, street-rat!" In "Mac and Charlie: White Trash", Mac and Charlie declare the public pool to be full of disgusting people while chugging beer in public, burping, and throwing the cans all over the place. Mac and Charlie suspect a kid is a threat to the school because he wore all black and was playing a violent video game. Later they remember that they like violent games and movies and don't want to kill people. During a flashback in "Frank's Brother", Frank talks about opening an integrated Jazz club where "blacks and whites can get along". He then adds "No Orientals, though". In "Reynolds v. Reynolds", the Catholic Mac's desperate attempt to prove evolution isn't real involves Aristotle being labeled a 'bitch' by Gallileo for proving geocentrism wrong. Gallileo rather famously was tried as a heretic for this belief (among other reasons) by....the Catholic Church.

Given the Crapsack World the show takes place in, these crushes are manipulated by the participants and outsiders constantly.

Accidental Innuendo
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_b913a5df
comment
Accidental Innuendo: invoked From "Mac and Charlie Die": "Whack off" is constantly used in "The Gang Gets Whacked". In the same episode Mac claims that he's hard and he'll explode all over anyone who crosses him. Charlie and Mac discuss getting cream all over Dennis's face in "The Gang Dances Their Asses Off". Lampshaded in "The Gang Solves the Gas Crisis", where Mac refers to the trio of guys getting "plowed in the ass" (i.e. screwed over by gas prices) several times and has to clarify that he's not talking about gay sex. In "Dennis and Dee Get a New Dad" Charlie and Mac talk about getting hard (tough) without having to get stuff (heroin) shoved up their asses. Frank is understandably confused. In "Mac and Dennis Buy a Timeshare", we get this: The whole "creampie" discussion at Gugino's. In episodes like "The Gang Dines Out" and "Thundergun Express", Frank obliviously tells people about how he and Charlie enjoy sleeping together.

Mirror Character: Dennis and Dee. Even they see themselves as a complete set, there are multiple episodes where they have separate plotlines but do the same things/get punished the same way, they know how to dig in at each other in a way that nobody else can but will also only ever choose each other when there’s actual danger, she has her insinuation and he has his implication, he has his DENNIS system and she browbeats men until they sleep with her, she’s been institutionalised and he didn’t get diagnosed with BPD until late thirties, they’re both arrogant with god complexes but also deep insecurity and intense rage, even the Waitress really damn drunk mistakes Dee for Dennis, and the season nine promos lampshade that she’s his mirror.

In a flashback in "Charlie Has Cancer", Mac punches Dee in the face when she grabs him from behind. This is foreshadowing for him doing the same thing to Carmen in public, causing a couple of guys to chase him over what they think is a hate crime. A conversation with Dennis suggests this is a common problem.

No Social Skills: The Gang in general. Known sociopaths are better at socializing than these people: "Dennis and Dee's Mom Is Dead" demonstrates that Dennis, Charlie, and Mac seem to think that male camaraderie mainly encompasses a combination of the physical abuse of Jackass and the very worst college fraternity initiations, up to eleven. In "The Gang Gets a New Member", the guys treat something as simple as adding a new member—their old high school friend Schmitty—to the group with the gravitas of inducting him into some kind of creepy secret society, not to mention expecting him to show up to the bar to hang out all day by some specific time. Schmitty finds it very strange. And than there's Frank, who hangs out with the Gang for the express purpose of being a complete psychopath.

Negative Continuity: Subverted. The Gang distinctly believe that the world works like this, and while episodes are all mostly stand alone, it becomes increasingly apparent that every bad decision the Gang makes has lasting effects that they seemingly subconsciously remove from their memories. In reality, the series has incredibly tight continuity, and builds up countless Call Backs and Continuity Nods over time.

Teased many times with Dennis and Dee. Becomes somewhat canon in "The Gang Broke Dee" where the gang also inadvertently breaks Dennis, who confesses his love to Dee and says that he is the right one for her. Played with in the Night Man musical, which casts Dee and Dennis as lovers resulting in a kiss being modified into an erotically-charged hug. Dee's also quite concerned that it makes her look like a pedophile. Played for laughs in the live shows, as they either go in for the kiss before getting interrupted, or end up just groping each other. And even in the episode, Dennis really doesn’t want the song to be cut, and Dee’s main concern is looking like a child molester instead of it being an Intercourse with You song with her brother. In the aptly titled "Who Got Dee Pregnant?" Dennis becomes convinced, to his horror, that he's the father. The McPoyles respond by telling him to "savor it." Turns out that he's not. In "Frank's Back in Business," Dennis wants to help Dee "get off" with him by committing identity theft, and both of them apparently got "jerked off" at a massage parlor. Accused of by Frank in "Dennis and Dee Get a New Dad". When Dennis and Dee meet up with Frank in order to ask him if he might not be their father, he immediately assumes they are banging. On the whole, Dennis will go in for a lot of blondes with his sister’s hairstyle (including the filmed memoirs on the season four extras where he date rapes someone who looks like Dee, plus the similarities between her and Jackie) and Dee really likes skinny men who wear a lot of flannel and have brown wavy hair. In “The Gang Gets Quarantined�, Dennis somehow thinks detailing how he can go from flaccid to erect in front of people including his sister and stepdad will help prove he’s not sick, and Dee is staring stunned harder than anyone. In following episodes, she’s nearly always the one noticing when he has a boner. Dennis is extremely possessive of Dee, claiming her hair is as much as his as well as hers and not letting her do anything innocently fun without him, and Dee finds it a turn on to emasculate or humiliate her brother and show how pathetic he really is, while also having sex fantasies of torturing him. They also seem to make it a point to TMI brag to each other about at best slutty exploits, or at worst, sexually extorting someone with the threat of violence or False Rape Accusation. Both of them have No Sense of Personal Space with each other, whether it’s clinging out of distress, calming each other down or just because they feel like it. Their high school reunion also implies people thought they were fucking even back then. The promos tend to go wild in this respect too, one where they’re chained together with her holding the chain, and the series nine promos (parodying Les Enfants Terribles) with them being Mirror Characters, her holding a cigarette in his mouth, and him submissively putting his head on her hand. Funnily enough, both of these have the rest of the Gang hanging around and acting like this doesn't faze them anymore. Coupling with Parental Incest, “Make Paddy’s Great Again�, both Dee and Frank partake in an orgy (Frank eating out the asshole and Dee getting off by watching) with the Dennis sex doll to get out all their codependent psychosexual issues with him, and Dee both would rather her actual brother back than a nice woman, and gets distracted by the Cindy plan by being interested in the blowjob mouth.

In early seasons, Dennis is characterized as someone who peaked in high school and likes to think he's still a legend, but later seasons establish that he was just as much as loser as the rest but deluded himself into thinking that he was popular. He was also extremely vain and would take any slight against his appearance with unhealthy obsession, while later he was more about sleeping around with his sexual experiences very toxic if borderline non-consensual.

Female Groin Invincibility: Averted in the "Charlie and Dee Find Love" episode. Dee and Mac are wrestling for Trevor's amusement. Mac throws Dee to the floor, proclaiming his victory, only for Dee to sucker-punch his dick, taking him down, when Dee stands up to gloat Mac retaliates and she falls over in pain.

Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_c0e3994b
comment
The usual sitcom jokes that rely on Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male and Double Standard Rape: Female on Male are averted and occasionally deconstructed. Dee is as frequent a victim of Slapstick shenanigans as her male friends, and her sexual offenses, along with those of her male counterparts, are not excused at all. Also, the double standard of victimization are treated seriously for some of the characters, such as Charlie and Dennis.

Character Check
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_c144e884
comment
Character Check: In "Frank Falls Out the Window," where Frank's titular incident leaves him with an injury that erases his recollection of the last 10 years of his life. Frank is seen revisiting his short-lived "new leaf" behavior from season 2, where he weakly attempts being a morally upright father figure, before his time spent with the gang steers him back towards his deeply entrenched depravity. In this sense, the real "Character Check" is Frank behaving the way that we've come to expect him to.

Dennis tries to invoke this trope between Mac and Dee in "The Gang Tries Desperately to Win An Award," in order to increase their chances of winning the Best Bar in Philadelphia award. Subverted in that neither Mac nor Dee are particularly enthusiastic about enacting this trope, ultimately ending with them yelling at each other and Mac nearly strangling Dee because she cracked a joke about his mother.

Show Some Leg: Dee seduces the city comptroller in an attempt to get bribe money. She also seduces Rickety Cricket in an attempt to get the gang's wall stain blessed as a miracle. In a rare male example, Dennis often tries to seduce his way through life, with varying degrees of success. He successfully seduces Margaret McPoyle when she and her brothers take the gang hostage, but it doesn't help; due to her deafness she has no idea that the sex is a ploy for his freedom. Charlie and Mac compete with Dennis trying to seduce a bank executive into giving them a loan.

Zig-Zagged in "Charlie Got Molested." Mac is offended when he learns that Charlie and the McPoyle twins were molested by their Creepy Gym Coach, but he was "passed over," since he was way cuter than any of them as a child. He even goes as far as trying to seduce the coach as a way to validate himself. However, Mac does some research and learns that sexual abuse often has far more to do with power and vulnerability than the victim's attractiveness. The gang later finds out that the whole molestation story was a Blackmail scheme created by the McPoyles—not that anyone would have wanted to molest Charlie, who was rather deranged and off-putting as a child.

Ass Shove: Both Played for Laughs and Played for Drama in “The Gang Gets Whacked�, as Dennis’s Janes are heavily implied to be pegging him and the joke is Frank telling him there can be rules while telling the Janes “he’ll do anything with the ass�. But he’s so low on the totem pole that they’re damaging him to the point of needing a doctor, and it contributes to his feeling of being raped.

Yank the Dog's Chain: In "The High School Reunion Part 2: The Gang's Revenge", the Waitress is so drunk and depressed that she says she'll have sex with whoever talks to her next. Charlie is right in front of her and is about to speak...and then Schmitty appears out of nowhere and says "hi". Dee in "The Gang Broke Dee". Dee overcomes her depression to become a successful local comedian, eventually getting offered a gig on Conan. Turns out the whole thing was a Xanatos Gambit by Mac, Charlie and Frank, just to show that it could get worse. In "The Gang Reignites the Rivalry", Mac and Charlie are approached by two college women at a "paint party"- that is, both couples paint each others' scantily clad bodies and then take a shower together to wash it off. Mac and Charlie get done being painted by the two women and are set to paint them in return, but are approached by two of the frat guys who force them to leave, since they're not in the frat.

Freudian Excuse
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_c868a42a
comment
Freudian Excuse: Mac's father was a meth dealer who was in prison for most of Mac's life and his mother did not care about him at all. He constantly seeks approval and attention. Charlie was an abortion survivor (may or may not have contributed to his impaired mental faculties) with no father (though Frank may be Charlie's missing father), an OCD, overbearing and sexually promiscuous mother, and was most likely molested as a child by his uncle. However, Bonnie (his mother) was overbearing out of genuine and misguided love for her son, which is far better than the other parents. Dennis has a completely amoral father figure (Frank) and a mother who believed he could do no wrong and openly and heavily favored him to Dee. "Frank Vs Russia" heavily implies she groomed and isolated him. At the age of fourteen, the school's librarian raped him, and it's implied he started shoving down emotions after this. He's finally diagnosed with BPD after bragging for ages that he's a sociopath. Dee also has Frank as a father, and her mother criticized everything about her, made it known that Dee was unwanted (despite the fact that she and Dennis are fraternal twins) and favored Dennis over her. She has very poor self esteem (aided by way of having to spend most of her teenage years walking with heavy braces due to Scoliosis) and a laundry list of neuroses. The gang considers it their duty to beat her down emotionally.

Self-Deprecation: The guys making fun of Dee's appearance is a Running Gag, though Dee looks exactly the same as her actress. In the season where Mac gets fat, the cast repeatedly mock his disgusting appearance, which was the whole point. Before the 8th season, the ad campaign portrayed the cast as having in fired and replaced by some b-grade celebrities and wash-ups. In the extended promo, each cast member is shown desperately trying to cling to their old job, having nothing else to do. The promos end with the cast watching the new cast and saying how much they prefer their replacements.

Lampshaded at the beginning of "The Gang Exploit the Mortgage Crisis", when Dee comes in to the bar talking about her plans to surrogate a child and Frank comes in talking about the house he just bought. The rest of the gang vote on which issue they're going to pay attention to, with Dennis mentioning that focusing on one would be "cleaner" considering that it would be difficult to "work the two together".

One character called the Waitress is Charlie's single-minded obsession; he's a Stalker with a Crush who constantly badgers her for dates. The Waitress, in turn, is rude, sarcastic, and dismissive of Charlie, often openly flirting with his friends to get revenge on him or simply treating him like dirt, although he never gets the hint. Charlie is played by Charlie Day, and the Waitress is played by Mary Elizabeth Ellis. The two have been Happily Married since 2006 (a year after the show began) and have a child together.

Originally the voice of reason, Dee's insecurity, shrillness and alcoholism are all played up in later seasons. The Gang's abuse of Dee also ramps up over the seasons, abusing her to the point of apparent psychotic breaks. Word of God is that this was done deliberately, as the only reason Dee would continue to hang out with such sociopaths is if she were equally sociopathic herself.

Both of them have No Sense of Personal Space with each other, whether it’s clinging out of distress, calming each other down or just because they feel like it. Their high school reunion also implies people thought they were fucking even back then.

Dancing Is Serious Business: In the episode "The Gang Dances Their Asses Off", where Paddy's Pub hosts a dance-athon open to all of Philadelphia. The Serious Business is justified in that Charlie accidentally advertised the prize of the contest as ownership of the entire bar. Alliances, sabotage, and broken kneecaps ensue.

Spiritual Antithesis
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_ce2969d8
comment
Spiritual Antithesis: The show in general is a Deconstructive Parody of sitcoms, with viewers and critics commenting on how it dismantles many of the tropes established by Cheers and Friends, with the main characters being self-centered jerks who stick together only because nobody else can tolerate them. Rob McElhenney said the series tries to go the opposite direction, an example being that Mac's weight gain in season 7 came from how the Friends cast looked more attractive over time because the actors were wealthy and could afford trainers, beauticians and nutritionists. Some episodes, such as "The Gang Tries To Win An Award" and "Old Lady House: A Situation Comedy," are more over Take Thats at regular sitcoms.

comment
Friendship Moment: The entire group trying their hardest to be less cynical for just one day and coming together in "Charlie Kelly: King of the Rats" to give Charlie a good birthday. The Christmas special ends with the gang all commiserating their terrible holiday by throwing rocks at trains together. The episode ends with a flashback of Mac and Charlie as kids walking off arm-in-arm. The end of "The Gang Dines Out" almost involves a Frank and Charlie vs. Dennis and Mac brawl, but they become distracted when a waiter falls over due to Dee tying his shoelaces together. While the waiter writhes on the ground in pain, the gang all exchange compliments and toast each other. Very twisted version with Dee and Dennis in “The Gang Goes To Hell�, as it goes from him promising to not shit on her to her instantly getting (and having no issue with it) his implication, and him being impressed that she has her own version.

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": The Waitress. No one in the gang knows her name, even her Stalker with a Crush Charlie. Dennis labels his sex tape "Waitress (Coffee Shop)." Dee calls her "Waitress" to her face. She reacts with disgust each time this happens. It's later revealed that they all went to high school with her, and Dee was in some of her classes. Even the guy who was engaged to her refers to her as "that coffee shop waitress". The Lawyer. No one ever calls him by name, though the gang has fewer interactions with him. The Waiter/Flight Attendant/HR manager. He doesn't even have the dignity of a consistent job, much less a name.

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Mac in "Frank's Back in Business": Mac has also done this at least twice (episodes "The Gang Runs for Office" and "The Gang Exploits a Miracle") by loudly exclaiming that he's "washing [his] hands" of the situation. Mac again in "The Gang Wrestles for the Troops". Notable in that Mac had a hand in creating every aspect of this situation—being a Face wrestler representing America against a Heel wrestler representing the Taliban in front of an audience of veterans—and he still announces that he is too afraid. In "Frank's Pretty Woman", The Gang attempts to give a makeover to Frank's new girlfriend. They take a genuine interest in helping her, even though she's, in Dennis' words, "unspeakably crass." However, the minute she calls Dennis "baby dick," he decides he's done.

I'm Standing Right Here: While bored in the waiting room at the hospital in "The Gang Goes to the Jersey Shore", Dennis and Dee construct a painstakingly detailed narrative involving a teenage part-time job giving way to a downward spiral of cocaine habits, studio apartments, single motherhood, and HIV infection all based on a somewhat frumpy-looking woman sitting in there with them. She points out that she can hear everything, but admits that their assessment isn't totally inaccurate.

Mondegreen Gag: Invoked. Frank's song in "The Nightman Cometh" has the line "You gotta pay the troll toll to get into this boy's soul." Frank's pronunciation sounds more like "boy's hole," and he refuses to enunciate any better. In "The Gang Solves the Gas Crisis", Dennis, Mac, and Charlie attempt to sell gasoline door-to-door. Charlie, for no good reason, adopts a southern accent during their first attempt at a sale. When he tells an older woman that they wanna "fill [her] up," his accent causes her to believe he's saying "feel [her] up," and she calls the police. When the gang decides to sell Paddy's, Frank tells them that before they do so, they need to be "wooed" by the potential buyer. Charlie thinks he's saying they should get some "wood."

Lyrical Dissonance: "Alone" by Heart plays whenever well-endowed news woman Jackie Denardo appears on-screen to signal Dennis' lust and ecstasy in having a chance to get with her. Even though it has some relevance in that the lyrics of the song is about the narrator who doesn't know how to confess their aching love for someone, which links with Dennis' tongue tied state in trying to talk to her, it still has an infinitely more tragic tone to it than Dennis' trying to talk to a woman he merely finds hot.

Intercourse with You: Charlie denies that the lyrics to his song "Night Man" have anything to do with a guy coming into his room in the middle of the night and raping him.

Dennis wasn't as popular back in high school as he thought he was, mainly because he'd claim to be a golden god (metaphorically speaking) while having nothing to back up his claim.

Ship Tease: In "The Gang Goes to the Jersey Shore", Charlie runs into the Waitress on the beach. Not only does she not insult him, they actually spend a fun, romantic night together. She was on ecstasy and has no love leftover in the morning. Dennis tells Dee that after looking through a series of guys, he's found out that he is really the perfect guy for her despite being her twin brother. She responds by telling him to "suck a dick" and kicking him down the stairs. Charlie and Dee get teased a few times, most notably when they make out and sleep together in "The Gang Misses the Boat", but "Time's Up For The Gang" sinks them by revealing that their encounter in the former episode was nonconsensual on Charlie's end.

The Shameless: All of the main characters have a particular area in their lives where they lack the self-awareness required to have shame, but it is possible to shame Dee, Dennis, Mac, and Charlie into trying to conform to more normal forms of behavior (even if it's just for appearances) if you can target the one thing they each are deeply insecure about. This is not the case for Frank. Frank has no delusions about the fact that he's a mean, gross, bigoted Jerkass. He's a proud hedonist who doesn't really care what others think of him, likely because he's so independently wealthy that he doesn't need to.

Innocent Means Naïve: Ben the soldier is the only truly decent and kind character in the entire show, innocent almost to a childlike degree. He's also dumber than a bag of bricks and can be counted on to fall for the Gang's various scams (including a pyramid scheme and Dee's controlling behavior when they date). However, he usually ends up on top simply by virtue of his obliviousness.

Musical Episode: "The Nightman Cometh". The first half is about the making-of, while the second half is the performance. "The Gang turns Black" has the gang turning into black people after watching The Wiz and constantly bursting into song. However, they are the only characters other than Scott Bakula to do this, which just makes them look like weirdos to others.

Whole-Plot Reference
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_e303d198
comment
Whole-Plot Reference: "Flowers for Charlie" is a whole plot reference to Flowers for Algernon. Fittingly, the main character in the book is also called Charlie, and the film adaptation is called Charly. "The Gang Gets Held Hostage" is Die Hard in the bar. "Making Dennis Reynolds a Murderer" is one to Making a Murderer, with Dennis as Steven Avery and Charlie as Brendan Dassey. The scene in which Frank blurts a confession into a hot mic while supposedly using the restroom is a reference to The Jinx, another True Crime documentary series that came out around the same time.

Award Snub: invoked "The Gang Tries Desperately to Win an Award" is a commentary on the show's lack of Emmy nominations (although events of the episode would imply that the crew doesn't submit material for nomination) and throws barbs at the shows that, for some reason, do win awards, despite things like tired will-they-or-won't-they plots and laugh tracks.

Flanderization
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_e5e6640b
comment
Flanderization: Every member of the gang gets more extreme in their characterizations. Justified, as their continuing mental degredation and violent, destructive, co-dependent relationships are accentuated by their alcoholism. Charlie, the dim-witted loser with a crush, becomes an illiterate and completely insane stalker prone to screaming inappropriately. The fact that he's constantly ingesting hazardous materials might justify his deteriorating mental state. Mac started out as a fairly normal Irish Catholic wanna-be bruiser, but his fixation on karate and fitness, as well as his homoerotic undertones, have become very exaggerated. Mac's Flanderization seems to be due to the mounting pressure to appear straight, which nobody buys for a moment. Dennis starts out as a vain prep, but has become Flanderized into a sociopathic and narcissistic sexual deviant and borderline rapist. Originally the voice of reason, Dee's insecurity, shrillness and alcoholism are all played up in later seasons. The Gang's abuse of Dee also ramps up over the seasons, abusing her to the point of apparent psychotic breaks. Word of God is that this was done deliberately, as the only reason Dee would continue to hang out with such sociopaths is if she were equally sociopathic herself. Frank has intentionally Flanderized himself over the course of the show. At his introduction, he's a shady businessman who wants to live the gang's depraved lifestyle. His hair becomes increasingly wild between each season, and his behavior becomes more depraved. By Season 5, he's a complete mess. Possibly lampshaded by Dennis in "The Gang Misses the Boat" when ranting about how bizarre the gang has become. "By the way, all of us have become so goddamn weird!"

Hate Sink: Even on a show starring five delusional jerks, Barbara Reynolds (mother of Dennis and Dee and Frank's ex-wife) stands out as a heinous bitch. She spends of her screentime being malicious (calling Dee a mistake and insulting her appearance), manipulative (lying that Frank fathered their children when she learned he had more money than their biological father, seducing Mac just to irritate Frank before tossing him aside), and vain (nobody particularly cares when she dies from a "botched necklift").

Suspiciously Specific Denial: In "Frank's Little Beauties", Frank obliviously invests in a child beauty pageant that's under investigation— the former investor was accused of sexual misconduct towards the contestants. As a result, Frank is overly paranoid about being seen as a pedophile and naturally dips into this trope more than once. Lampshaded by Mac: In "The Gang Makes Lethal Weapon 6", there's a scene with Riggs (Mac) and Murtaugh (Dennis) in a strip club:

Catchphrase
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_e6b5d22f
comment
Catchphrase: Very often discussed and lampshaded. Mac starts calling people "bozo" in "The Gang Hits the Road," saying it's his "new thing," then asks Charlie if he thinks it's cool. In "Mac's Big Break," Mac becomes fixated on calling people "jabroni," which Charlie thinks is awesome. After Franks asks "What's the action?" a few times, Mac derisively asks if he's trying to make it his new catchphrase. Mac often says, "Guys, I've got big news!" or some variation thereof when he walks into Paddy's Pub. This is lampshaded in "Chardee MacDennis," when Mac arrives at the bar with no plot hook to deliver, and the gang notes how unusual this is. People in the gang often shout "Eyyoooo!" whenever they arrive at Paddy's midway through a scene. Charlie invokes this in "Charlie Work," making Dennis say "Alright alright alright" literally every time he sees the health inspector. As the series progresses, the main cast grows increasingly prone to say that they're "moving past" some topic or setback while charging heedlessly forward in defiance of any caution or reflection.

comment
Blackface: In "Lethal Weapon 5" and "The Gang Makes Lethal Weapon 6," Mac uses makeup to play the role of Murtaugh. The rest of the gang argue that he's donning blackface and point to the trope image of Al Jolson to back criticize him. His makeup starts washing off in one scene filmed in a shower. Dennis refuses to darken his skin and only wears a mustache, though he does do a "black voice." In another scene, Dee also uses makeup to portray Murtaugh's daughter. The trope got these episodes kicked off of Netflix in 2020.

Never Learned to Read
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_e9a3a1ed
comment
Never Learned to Read: Charlie's reading and writing skills are almost non-existent. It's often suggested that he has a learning disability. In "The Great Recession," Charlie reveals that he turns on the "Closed" sign in the bar every morning, believing it to say "Coors." Charlie's script for Dennis's commercial in "The Gang Runs For Office" hardly counts as English. Charlie reads the "Private" sign on a door as "Pirate" and wonders if a pirate lives behind it. Charlie's lyric sheet for "Night Man" seems to be a rebus of simple pictures and chicken-scratched words. Charlie unknowingly signs a contract agreeing to give Paddy's over to the winner of a dancing contest (mistaking the word "prize" for "pride" while signing the pub up to host the contest). At the end of the episode, Mac proclaims that Charlie really needs to learn how to read.

Artistic License – Geography: In "Mac and Charlie Die," Dee mentions that she ran down Spring Garden Street through Fairmount Park to get back to Paddy's, which is in South Philly. If you look at a map of the city, it becomes obvious how wrong this is, as Spring Garden Street runs east-west through Center City and is already south of Fairmount Park. It's a little surprising that this mistake wasn't caught since Rob McElhenney is actually from Philadelphia in real life.

A good chunk of the plot in "Dennis Reynolds: A Erotic Life." Naturally, it's a much darker spin. The ending of "The Gang Turns Black" turns out to be a dream of Old Black Man. However, upon looking into a mirror, he sees Scott Bakula's face. Dennis Takes A Mental Health Day is almost entirely a fantasy created by Dennis to lower his blood pressure.

Sequel Episode

Sequel Episode: there's quite a big number of those: "Gun Fever 2: Still Hot" (season 9) to "Gun Fever" (season 1). "The Gang Makes Lethal Weapon 6" (season 9) to "Dee Reynolds: Shaping America's Youth" (season 6). "The Nightman Cometh" (season 4) to "Sweet Dee is Dating a Retarded Person" (season 2). "Pop-Pop: the Final Solution" (season 8) to "The Gang Finds a Dead Guy" (season 1). "The World Series Defense" (season 5) and "The Gang Gets Stranded in the Woods" (season 6) both deal with the Gang's fondness for the Philadelphia Phillies. "The Gang Gives Back" (season 2) is a sequel to "The Gang Goes Jihad", which precedes it by a couple of episodes.

Snap Back
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_ec911c96
comment
Snapback: While the show usually features a surprising amount of continuity for a sitcom, there is some snapback. "Dee and Dennis Go On Welfare" ends with Dennis and Dee addicted to crack. They're fine by the next episode, though there have been a handful of callbacks. Mac's seventh-season weight gain snaps back in beginning of season eight, in which he makes reference to his sudden and disappointing weight loss. Lampshaded in "The Gang Gets Analyzed" when Mac and the therapist discuss his sudden weight loss. It turns out Dennis secretly gave him pills that made Mac lose his appetite so he'd get thin again.

Dwindling Party: "Thunder Gun Express." First Dennis gets abandoned in traffic. Then Frank can't make it onto the train. Mac is too fat to fit into a storm drain. Finally, Dee gets her shoe stuck in a grate in the sewer, leaving Charlie all alone. However, all of them (except Frank) get to the movie theater anyway.

A Handful for an Eye: Rickety Cricket throws sand into Dennis and Charlie's eyes during the wrestling match in "The Gang Wrestles for the Troops". Dee uses a similar strategy to get herself and Dennis away from violent criminals in "The Gang Goes to the Jersey Shore." Bonus points for using sand she and Dennis were being forced to dig for a grave at the time.

Fantasy Sequence

comment
Fantasy Sequence: The premise of "The Gang Saves the Day". The Gang is caught in a convenience store robbery, and imagine how they'd save the day. Mac imagines he obliterates ninjas with his karate while struggling to insert puns in his Bond One Liners, then ascends to a homoerotic heaven. Sweet Dee imagines she kills the whole gang, blames everything on the robber, gets into witness relocation and becomes a huge star. Dennis imagines he's shot, and is then nursed back to health by Jackie Denardo, until she herself gets crippled and he Mercy Kills her rather than return the favor, mainly because her boobs got smaller. Frank imagines that he gorges on free hot dogs while the robber kills the rest of the gang. Charlie imagines he protects The Waitress, making her fall in love with him. They live out a happy life closely modeled on Up, only with more janitors and rats.

Distracted by the Sexy: "Storm of the Century" has Mac, Dennis, and Charlie completely disregarding the Weather Report's warnings of a Category 5 snowstorm due to their wandering eyes focusing entirely on the well-endowed meteorologist Jackie Denardo. The guys subsequently channel surf to the Spanish station, where they fixate on the equally-chesty weather girl Evita Sanchez. Then they spend a bit of time flipping back and forth between forecasts. Naturally.

Female Misogynist: Sweet Dee in spades. She lashes out at most female characters and tries to outdo them at everything, usually failing miserably. She only calls up her few female friends (Artemis and the Waitress) if she needs to use them for something, and usually insults them in the meantime. In "A Woman's Right To Chop," she ostensibly seems to defend short-haired women but mocks their appearance just as much as the guys do.

In "The Gang Spies Like U.S.", Charlie knows neither that Mac and Dennis are stealing the Chinese fish factory's Wi-Fi, nor that "cream pie" is also a name for a sex act (and therefore a search term for pornography). He therefore comes to the conclusion that Mac and Dennis are planning on starting a bakery with the Chinese and asks them why they haven't asked them to make cream pies with him instead. Then he starts talking about feeding his cream pies to children...

comment
Dumbass Has a Point: In "Charlie Work", while preparing for a visit from the health inspector, Charlie discovers the Gang in the midst of a scam involving live chickens, prompting Charlie to tell them to move the chickens away from the front of the bar. When they ask him why they should do it, he tells them that even if they don't care about the inspection, it's still not a good idea for a government official to see a scam happening in plain sight. The gang quickly acknowledges he has a point and moves the chickens. In "Reynolds v. Reynolds: The Cereal Defense", the topic shifts to the subject of creationism. Mac, The Fundamentalist, is generally framed as foolish for his refusal to believe in evolution, but he manages to make a persuasive argument against Dennis by arguing that because Dennis doesn't personally know how evolution actually works, his "faith" in the work of scientists is no more valid than Mac's faith in Creationism, especially since scientists can be wrong. Mac's argument sounds cogent, and Dennis is at a loss to refute it.

 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_f43028b4
comment
Deck of Wild Cards: The Gang are each other's only friends. That doesn't stop them from constantly backstabbing each other in their various schemes, sometimes for no reason at all. In "Frank Retires," Charlie squabbles with Dennis and Dee over who will inherit Paddy's Pub from Frank. Mac loudly announces every time he switches sides, Dee betrays Dennis and joins Charlie, and Dennis tries using a fake heir as a bid to take everything for himself. "Paddy's Pub: Home Of The Original Kitten Mittens": Charlie and Dee, Mac and Dennis, and Frank separately try to come up with merchandising ideas for the bar, constantly trying to one-up each other and stealing ideas back and forth. It ends up All for Nothing when the Lawyer they've been irritating tricks them into signing all the merchandising profits over to him.

Product Placement: Kicks in after a few seasons. The bar suddenly has a bunch of Coors promotional items. There's a joke about Charlie turning on the "Coors" sign, which turns out to be a "Closed" sign. One episode has the Mac and Dennis visiting Dave and Busters and trying to emulate its Power Card system. There's some Biting-the-Hand Humor about how Mac and Dennis think it's a classy place, ordering red wine and saying, "You can't get a better steak in an arcade environment!" Dee shows up with a bag and beverage from Subway. Another episode has a scene taking place in a Subway. In "The Gang Squashes Their Beefs", there's an FX display in the opening scene, with the company logo and a Sons of Anarchy poster. Anheuser-Busch signed on as a sponsor before the show’s premiere, only to pull out following the airing of the first episode. The rest of season one has Bland-Name Product logos digitally superimposed over all A-B signs and products.

Comically Missing the Point: In "Charlie Has Cancer", Charlie has a cancer scare. Dee fixates on how awful he'd look without his hair. Charlie seems to think the twist of The Sixth Sense is that Malcolm Crowe was played by Bruce Willis the entire time. In "Sweet Dee has a Heart Attack", after learning that the government doesn't pay for health care, Charlie and Mac remark that they might as well be living in a Communist, Socialist dictatorship, because free healthcare has always been a totally American concept?

Special Edition Title: "A Very Sunny Christmas" features the exact same shots of Philadelphia, but with the scenery decked out for Christmas. The eighth season Halloween episode features scary music and red titles over a black screen instead of the standard title sequence. Season 11 gets two variations: "The Gang Hits the Slopes" references 80's films with block text over a shot of people skiing as electric guitar plays, and "Being Frank", with the credits appearing over Frank's reflection as he gets reading for the day, with delicate piano music playing rather than the usual tune. Season 14's "The Janitor Always Mops Twice," in keeping with its 1940s aesthetic, has special art deco style credits and tinny background music. Due to the shift in locale, the entire second half of Season 15 has an opening sequence showing rolling Irish hills and set to a jaunty Celtic punk tune.

With Friends Like These...: One wonders why the gang stays friends despite all the times they've screwed each other over.

Will They or Won't They?
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_fdc1e848
comment
Will They or Won't They?: Dennis tries to invoke this trope between Mac and Dee in "The Gang Tries Desperately to Win An Award," in order to increase their chances of winning the Best Bar in Philadelphia award. Subverted in that neither Mac nor Dee are particularly enthusiastic about enacting this trope, ultimately ending with them yelling at each other and Mac nearly strangling Dee because she cracked a joke about his mother. Dennis also tries to use it in "Old Lady House: A Situation Comedy" between Jack and Bonnie Kelly (the fact that they're siblings does not deter him). He tries to turn it into a Love Triangle once Frank gets involved. Needless to say, Dennis seems to be a big fan of this trope. Later seasons, however, seem to play this trope straight between Mac and Dennis, with Mac explicitly being in love with Dennis, and Dennis' feelings for Mac being relatively ambiguous.

Brick Joke
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_fe0330fb
comment
Brick Joke: Frank's rum ham, which is lost and then turns up at the end of "The Gang Goes to the Jersey Shore." Early in the episode "The Gang Solves the North Korea Situation," Mac and Charlie remark briefly that they have a hard time determining the age of the Koreans, which becomes a huge plot-point later when the Korean "woman" Charlie proposed to turns out to be twelve years old. In "Charlie Rules the World," Frank says "We could all be in a turtle's dream, in outer space!" The end credits just show a giant sea turtle floating in outer space. In "Charlie Rules the World," Dennis proclaims that if Charlie ever rules the world, he'll blow himself. Toward the end of the episode, Charlie has become the most powerful player in an online video game world, and Dennis blows another version of himself in an isolation tank-inspired vision. In the Season 1 episode "Charlie Has Cancer," Mac punches Carmen the transgender woman on accident and is chased down by two men for committing what they perceive to be a hate crime. Five seasons later, in "The World Series Defense," they beat up Charlie for attacking the "Philly Phrenetic." In the first part of the two-part high school reunion finale, the gang sees Schmitty's (a former member of the gang played by Jason Sudeikis) name tag and comment that he'll probably skip the whole thing and only show up at the end to "swoop in and bang the grossest chick here." At the end of the second part, right after a very drunken Waitress states that she will have sex with the very next person who speaks to her, Schmitty pops up out of nowhere and says hi to her. She leads him off to have sex, ruining Charlie's chance to finally bang her. In "Charlie Work", Charlie for some reason keeps taking the time to slam a particular stool on the ground several times each time he walks past it. At the end of the episode, it provides a final proof of Charlie's Crazy Preparedness by falling apart when Dee sits in it—he knew she would sit on that stool. In Dennis Reynolds: An Erotic Life, Charlie forbids Dee from using his bathroom, with a vague warning of "You do NOT want to go in that bathroom." 12 seasons later, it's revealed that the bathroom...is a bit noisy.

Shown Their Work
 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia / int_ffad4e9f
comment
Shown Their Work: As awful and narcissistic and possibly psychotic as he is, Dennis has been praised for an accurate depiction of BPD: the hypersexuality, the feeling dead inside, dissociating, creators have said many times he’s probably the most fragile of the Gang, is the worst off when he’s alone and freaks out when he might get abandoned, constantly self harms and harms others with his awful views on sex coming from trauma when young, and is very impulsive and desperate for validation though he won’t admit it. It also helps that his terrible behavior isn’t due to his BPD, he’s just rape culture in a nutshell and knows he can get away with it.
