    Great start to the season. Loved the crack references. Also loved Mac just lobbing a coupla insulin shots while eating. :pac:

    The sight of Charlie in the ten gallon hat had me in stitches:D

    First episode in and it made me laugh out loud a few times and I watched it on my own, here's to many more great episodes!

    Fat Mac is comic genius!
    The garbage bag of mexican food is giving me idea's!

    Charlie in the limo
    puking the blood had me in stitches! "I used like 100 blood caplets, but I don't think I should have swallowed them..I don't feel so good now"

    It's filling in the big comedy hole that the end to the season of Curb your enthusiasm has left :)

    Great return. I usually don't find the vomit humour that funny, but Charlie vomiting blood was hilarious.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 886 ✭✭✭randomchild


    Instant classic! The ending was absolutely brilliant, will never be able to listen to that song with a straight face again!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,713 ✭✭✭Cianan2


    RUM HAM!!!!

    Classic episode. I'm loving Fat Mac, something brilliant about it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,116 ✭✭✭Professional Griefer


    Amazing stuff.

    New season is very good so far.

    Was hilarious when they took Charlie below the boardwalk, and the 2 bums :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,677 ✭✭✭ronnie3585


    Holy sh*t, is that the ocean!!!

    Fat Mac and Frank munching Rum Ham when it was fished back out of the water:D

    Another quality episode.

    Fat Mac is the greatest comedy creation in the history of television. One look at him and I burst out laughing especially when you realise that he's the splitting image of Dom Deluise

    This season is brilliant so far! Dare I say its up there with seasons 2 & 3!? It's hitting new lows & gotten more twisted but it's absolute genius! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 460 ✭✭KeanSeenan


    Some bits of the cgi were a bit off, but I really enjoyed the episode..really fúckin' went for it though, homeless bumming, headshots and angel dust all in one episode.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,315 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    Is that a fatsuit on Mac? If so it's the best I've ever seen, if not then fair play to him for putting on so much weight in 9 months without eating a baby.

    Seriously though, it's the strongest return I've ever seen from a comedy these last two episodes. The crack references, Fat Mac just lobbing the insulin into him as he eats, angel dust, the waitress on ecstacy. Just brilliant.

    The whole robbery scene after they take the angel dust was brilliant. It should not have been funny but when it was contrasted with the other lads experience at Jersey Shore just made it brilliant.

    It's real. And intentional. He's already lost most of it since the season was filmed.

    I really hope Rickety Cricket makes a return, love that guy!

    Charlie Day is a lucky man, the waitress is a little hottie.

    I doubt we'll be seeing much of him as he got his own sitcom that looks like absolute doshíte, but one episode with him this season would make me very happy.
    I want some Mcpoyles this season too.

    What a total legend.

    Those 2 episodes are the best for quite some time, classic Sunny!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,424 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    The Jersey Shore episode was fantastic..



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,677 ✭✭✭ronnie3585


    Loved this weeks episode. Frank stole the show - I don't want to diddle your kids!

    Really loving the new series, it's going places where no other show would dare. DeVito was great in last nights episode, the make up for his post fall made him look strangely like he did back when he was playing the Penguin.

    It's kinda sad to think that the funniest show on atm is the seventh series of a show that was all but cancelled at the end of it's first series and remains criminally unseen. That the truly diabolically bad Mike and Molly and 2 and a Half Men have far greater viewership figures and a prime time slot around the world just shows how unfair the world of comedy television is. It's Always Sunny has for 7 years been the most consistently funny show on and one if the few which you can rewatch again and again and never fail to laugh like a madman.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,396 ✭✭✭✭FreudianSlippers


    haha brilliant episode.

It's Always Sunny has for 7 years been the most consistently funny show on and one if the few which you can rewatch again and again and never fail to laugh like a madman.

    I was having this exact discussion during the week with a mate of mine. If you look at what is passing itself off as comedy these days (2 and a Half Men et al) and the viewing figures they are amassing, it is astounding that the most consistently funny show of the last six years remains relatively unknown and enitrely unappreciated.

    But perhaps it's better have it this way?

    If it were to reach the levels of mainstream popularity as something like 2 and a Half Men, would they be able to get away with making jokes about such stuff as kiddie diddling, Dee dating a retard, Frank banging hoors, Mac baging Denis' mom, the D.E.N.N.I.S system and just Charlie in general - I really don't think so. So, maybe it's better that it stays out of the mainstream limelight and keeps producing consistently funny comedy that isn't afraid to cross the line. FX recently renewed it for Seasons 8 & 9, with an option for 10. Here's hoping somethings don't change.
