Illiteracy... what does that word even mean?
I bet what happened is that this contract was intended to be the end of the series because it's been 10 seasons and the gang wants to do other things. Glenn messed up by mentioning it early, and a bunch of suits yelled at him because it messes up the plan of how they want to announce it. Brand managers feel very strongly about controlling the manner and timing of these announcements. Especially with this coming so close to the launch of FXX.

So now they have to pretend like the fate of the series is up in the air. I'd be shocked to see a season 11. Though maybe FXX ends up throwing them enough money to do a single extra season, possibly reduced.

Maybe they should've used that anger to make a better show.

Did you ever watch it? Because it was a great show. Even after it was bumped from 1 night a week on the regular channel to 5 nights a week on a brand new flagship station, the quality was high. It displaced the Daily Show for my 11 o'clock comedy news show.

The episodes are really loving cringe worthy, and I'm like dying of laughter because of it. I had to skip the first episode though.

Because of the n-bombs? I actually didn't think the show would last very long after seeing the first season, because it seemed to rely too much on shock value. You should go back and watch that one though, eventually.

I agree. I think that's the ONLY episode that has the word in it. There might be another one or two, but the gang is only making fun of a crazy guy who says it.

I'm not offended by the word; I just think shock-laughs are low hanging fruit.

Always Sunny has plenty of "shocking" moments, but the key to them is that they just supplement the crazy poo poo that's already going on. It doesn't really rely on them.

Just pointing this out because if that made you uncomfortable enough to skip an episode, you'll come across some more instances you might not like.

The episode with the gun, and there all just screaming to shoot him in the face is loving hilarious. Also, trying to pick up chicks at an abortion rally.

Also, also, "Yeah I just punched a tranny in the face, then I ran hear I'm so pumped! Get me a beer D." I'm really loving this show.

E: Oh my god, they're giving a fake eulogy, and brought a bunch of homeless people to a funeral.

It's worth the payoff of seeing The Waitress call Charlie Hitler, though.

He just punched a guy, that guy bumped into a woman, and that woman snapped her neck against a stool.

Also, I'm appreciating the community service thing calling back to the jihad episode.

I've been rewatching a little and I think The Gang Gets Trapped (the one where they are stuck in the Asian family's closets trying to get the vase) is the most perfect episode they've done yet. You could have never seen any other episode and still be able to understand every characters traits and the group dynamic.

Yes. Put the baby in the tanning bed, you know, just to get the base.

Frank & Charlie the Hoarders is great.

Oh my god, "The Abortion didn't take."
