It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia is back, baby!
Charlie (Charlie Day), Dennis (Glenn Howerton), Mac (Rob Mac), Dee (Kaitlin Olson), and Frank (Danny DeVito) may be the messiest gang in all of Pennsylvania — let’s be real, it’s all of the United States, actually — but they truly are the gift that keeps on giving all these years later.
This year, that means they are giving us It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia Season 18, which comes just one year after Season 17 had us in tears over a Taxi reunion between DeVito and Carol Kane so many years in the making. Even more exciting, the fun didn’t stop there because this dynamic duo is back and bringing their unconventional love to the screen once again. As for what that will look like, we’ll just have to tune in and find out.
On that note: when exactly does Season 18 of It’s Always Sunny premiere, and when can we expect to have all of the episodes available for our streaming pleasure? So many questions!
No fear, we’ve got all the answers you’re looking for, including when the new season airs, what it’s about, and how to watch. Keep reading for everything you need to know…
