  • The Philadelphia Story | Today's News: Our Take | 9/4/2007
    OK, again, digging ya’ll who checked in last week. The fun we had, huh? And what better way to recover from the lost joys of The Land of the Lost than with some love for the City of Brotherly Love. As bhm1304 guessed last week, the best FX sitcom you’re not watching is…It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.Granted, while it’s not really always sunny here, as a right proud Philly boy who just spent Labor Day wandering Center City, reading in Rittenhouse Square and chowing down on The Continental’s insane crab Pad Thai, I have to say that this town does indeed rock.Much like this dirty little gem. Centered on foul-mouthed pub owners Mac, Charlie and Dennis, his barmaid sister Sweet Dee and a still unnamed coffee-shop waitress who could teach Friends Gunther a thing or two about stealing scenes, Sunny is best compared to Seinfeld…if Jerry’s posse had less morals and raging drinking problems. Once Danny DeVito joins in for season 2 as Dee and Dennis&#... read more
  • Sunny's Rob McElhenney on Trannies and Danny DeVito | Today's News: Our Take | 9/4/2007
    It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia may sound like a pleasant enough show, but there's nothing saccharine about FX's cult-hit comedy. Following the deplorable behavior and self-absorbed shenanigans of a group of friends who operate a South Philly dive called Paddy's Pub, the series enters its third season on Thursday, Sept. 13 (10 pm/ET, FX), and the DVDs for Seasons 1 and 2 arrive in stores today. Creator, producer and star Rob McElhenney recently spoke with TVGuide.com about the new season and provided some insight on attractive transsexuals, the City of Brotherly Love and whether he plans to get loaded with costar Danny DeVito before their upcoming appearance on The View. TVGuide.com: In the beginning you, read more
  • FX Comedy Pushes More Envelopes | Today's News: Our Take | 6/29/2006
    For a series about to start only its second season, FX's It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia has come a long way. The pilot, made by actors/writers/executive producers Rob McElhenney, Glenn Howerton and Charlie Day, was shot on digital video and edited on a home computer for a grand total of $200. Even with limited publicity and starring relative unknowns, the seven-episode premiere season was able to build a word-of-mouth following that caused network execs to order a 10-epi read more
  • The Sunny, Funny Side of Philadelphia | Today's News: Our Take | 8/11/2005
    Ahhh, the City of Brotherly Love. Home of soft pretzels, Gary Heidnik and now, something just as delicious and sick: It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Created, written by and starring Philly native Rob McElhenney, the comedy (airing Thursdays at 10:30 pm/ET) about a trio of borderline racist, homophobic pals running a bar in the town's trendy Northern Liberties section may be the bawdiest thing to hit FX since a pair of plastic surgeons started nipping and tucking everything in sight. Here, the disarmingly innocent-looking McElhenney opens up to a fellow local boy about offending the masses, avoiding the censors and what all he has up his sleeve.
