AgentF posted:radiatinglines was correct and then there were a bunch of posts that seemed so eager to jump on him and didn't actually understand what he was saying. The point was that the particular joke relied on Dennis' past characterisations as a monster in order to be funny and that this is indicative of a show's decline as it gradually relies more on past references than original comedy that stands on its own. Counterpoint: this season has been awesome so far but sorry you don't enjoy fun things Also

As someone who doesn't like football at all and equally doesn't care about fantasy football, The League was actually kind of funny for one season or probably less. There were funny jokes about fantasy football that I was able to get. Then it became nothing but their relationships and I stopped caring.

relationship drama is the last gasp of a formerly funny show, and this also reminds me that having a baby is humor death Always Sunny used Dee's pregnancy to tell many good jokes. It even went so far as to have That Scene, you know, the one where you get to first see the new mom with her beautiful new baby and you see her holding the baby and the soft music starts and everybody's looking at it with That Look like this is so precious, it's the miracle of life, this is what viewers were waiting for, and then it yanks the rug back out from under you by immediately giving it to Carmen and her husband, and this whole baby thing was just a scheme of Dee's for money. It's the only good just-had-a-baby scene on TV. They took Kaitlin Olson's real-life pregnancy and used it to tell even funnier jokes. Always Sunny is epic.

The League also has an actor who lied about not only 9/11 but also where he went to school.

I also loved that they didn't have Dee soften or question her decision or regret it for even a moment. She dumps the baby and immediately buys a scooter and from that point forward she has never given a single thought to the kid ever again. It rules.

Her being pregnet also led to the episode where they tried to figure out what happened at the Halloween party and we got bird Dee.

I'm a little disappointed it was followed by "sweet Dee goes to court" and then "Sweet Dee is in jail" though, because whenever the show does court room or prison scenes they're hilarious.

Lord Krangdar posted:They should just do the Seinfeld finale but then keep going with the final scene and show what happens next. My idea for the finale is basically the finale for Seinfeld, only the jury and the judge doesn't that five people could do even half of the absolutely insane poo poo they have done they have been charged and lets the go. They then go back to the bar which then explodes and cricket then pops his head out from the other side of a car parked across the street laughing like a mad man. That however is not the end of the gang but just to set up the movie. It's Always Sunny in Hollywood or The Gang go to Hollywood where the gang go to Las Angeles to find and get revenge on cricket for blowing up their bar and selling it to jihadists* only to be immeadealy be distracted by the news that Predator is being remade. * Of course the Jihadists are actually Unitarians who bought the bar and turned it into a church after the gang defaulted on their loan while everyone was in a coma.

When they were asked about making a movie they were like uhhhhhhhh and pretty much said "no" without saying "never". That format's not appropriate for Always Sunny anyway. The closest they've gotten is some two-parters. That's, what, forty minutes total?

The Christmas special is the same.

Mac could be Santa, Frank an elf, and Dennis the creepy guy who hits on the moms while they wait for the kid's photo to be taken. Charlie and Dee could have their own spin-off bit since Charlie is too traumatized by Santa.
