Usually I get scared when a show goes on too long, but the It's Always Sunny guys haven't shown any evidence that they're running out of ideas. It helps that the show's basic premise is "the worst people in the world get away with being horrible people". There's always plenty of material to go with that kind of premise.
One of the best shows of all time, too damn funny
How do you solidify your standing as longest running while tieing for longest running?

i hope sweet dee gets a new coming... nah that's never gonna happen shes just an ostrich.
[QUOTE=Lordgeorge16;44641646]There's a difference, I guess. Not sure what it is.[/QUOTE] "television" includes the big ~4 networks at the bottom of your channel guide: abc,nbc,cbs,fox plus all other channels "cable" is every channel except the big 4
I hope they put season 9 on Netflix soon so that I can catch up on it and watch season 10 when it comes out.
[QUOTE=Rocâ„¢;44641640]That time they broke the priest guy's legs and faith... Oh wow...[/QUOTE] Pretty much everything they did to Rickety Cricket, you mean.
Friend convinced me to watch this a while ago; watched all seasons on Netflix in about a week. Glad it's continuing. It really is great.
I might be alone in this, but I hope at least one of these seasons continues with the "themed" episode gimmick set by previous seasons. Namely like how there has been a Charlie centric episode that shows how he is both the best and worst of the gang and Dee and "insert member here" getting addicted to something, to state two examples of recurring episode themes.
I thought that Curb Your Enthusiasm has been around for longer. I guess not.
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;44642491]I thought that Curb Your Enthusiasm has been around for longer. I guess not.[/QUOTE] It has but it has taken several breaks. Only 8 seasons

I've never actually seen this, but I always thought this only started a couple of years ago. Might have to check it out.
All I know of this series is that my friend's girlfriend would watch it while he was on Skype, and I'd always hear either the theme song or just angry yelling in the background of his mic.
The best show to never win any Emmy's.
Rob is the fuckin man. Met him when he was filming the High School Reunion episode at my hs, really awesome dude. After that episode, we memorialized the spot where they "smashed up" the beers on the side of the school, only for a day though.
Thank god. Always Sunny is one of the best TV show's around. It really is. You have 5 great actors in terrible situations as terrible people with some of the best writing. It's so god damn good to know there'll be more.

This show has taught me so much, such as: the best way to enjoy a milk steak is with a side of jelly beans
I've learned to not stand around thinking about eating rancid soups, I live in the moment now and eat rancid soups whenever I see them [IMG]http://i1046.photobucket.com/albums/b469/dryedmangoezsunny/eight/sunny801-1003.jpg[/IMG]
Always Sunny is the only thing that keeps me watching TV. [MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzaVd6zl2bA[/MEDIA]
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GLVS9xQzSo[/media] If you've never watched any of the blooper reels for this show, you're missin out.
This show, among a few others, was the only reason I bothered watching TV in my high school days. Glad they're not losing steam.
One of the three TV shows I even watch and I fucking LOVE IT.

The premise is narcissistic social outcasts who can't fit in with anyone but themselves yet are constantly scheming to make it big. And what's great is that they never get away with any of their plans so they're always back at the bar scheming.
my favorite episode [video=youtube;OR4zefzP7d0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OR4zefzP7d0[/video]
