-
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia — Best binge-watch
If you like extremely inappropriate, cynical ensemble comedy, this is the obvious choice. Season 18 premiered August 17, so there’s fresh material alongside the enormous back catalog.
Charlie Day, Rob McElhenney, Glenn Howerton, Kaitlin Olson, and Danny DeVito.
