Let time not be wasted on the hating of pleasures!

This blog was made to host the television reviews and share the thoughts of regular viewers. It includes the reviewer's episode rating and his or her favorite line(s).

Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia 609


This show used to be crazy good. Now, I'm normally disappointed by it. I'm not sure whether that's because of unreasonably high expectations or a serious drop in quality. Either way, while I no longer find myself laughing out loud, the show is still amusing. The show carries the tagline "Its 'Seinfeld' on crack", but I think its more like South Park with real people. A gang of delinquent manchildren cook up wild, if ill-fated, schemes to propel themselves to fame and fortune.

This week's episode was more of the same. Amusing but far short of the stomach cramp inducing hilarity of early Sunny. The story picks up where it left off last week, with Charlie and Sweet Dee having abandoned the gang with hopes of better and brighter in their new and inescapably menial jobs in the local high school. Meanwhile Dennis, Mac, and Frank debate over the racism of "blackface" acting. The two stories become one when Dennis, Mac, and Frank devise an elaborate experiment to decide on the issue once and for all. Funny moments were had, no doubt, but they were sadly too few and too far between.

Episode Rating:
5 (Average TV)

Episode's Best Line:
"Juggalo for life. Bitch!" - Richard, the student Juggalo
