It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia

FX

We have endless respect to Always Sunny for never once, in 16 seasons, trying to make its lead characters smart, likable or admirable. Charlie Day, Glen Howerton, Kaitlin Olsen and Rob McElhenney — and obviously Danny DeVito — may be the funniest people ever to star in a sitcom, even if Emmy voters will never give them their proper due because of their basic-cable status and refusal to play nice.

We love the incredibly daring early episodes, but we also love The Gang trying and failing to virtue signal in these supposedly more socially conscious times. Again, we’re gauging funniest TV shows by how hard they make us laugh — and almost no show makes us laugh harder than this one.

Favorite line: “Turn the cage so I can see!”
