Depraved underachieving might look easy, but for the egocentric Mac, Charlie, Dennis, Frank and Dee, it's an art form; "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" follows "The Gang," the owners of the unsuccessful Paddy's Pub; a group of degenerates who loves nothing more than to scheme, conspire, and mostly revel in each other's misery; whether gaming the welfare system, exploiting dumpster babies, pretending to be crippled, impersonating officers or faking funerals, The Gang never stoops too low in the name of making a buck.

The new batch of episodes is for the sickos -- and they will feast. Go to Full Review Paula Mejía The New Yorker 2d
Following a string of uneven seasons, “Sunny” ’s eighteenth outing finds fertile terrain by toying with this pronounced sociopolitical pendulum swing -- but not by vindicating its characters, who, it’s implied, might share similarly cold-blooded impulses. Go to Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Aug 10
What’s most striking about about the show in 2026 remains that confidence ... it feels like the writers and performers are prioritizing what makes them laugh over anything else, which they’ve really been doing for a generation now. Go to Full Review Meredith Loftus Collider 2d
6/10
Where last season hit new highs, Season 18 is overall another hilarious installment of TV that reminds you why you've loved the show this long. Go to Full Review Alex Maidy JoBlo's Movie Network 5d
8/10
This series could go on forever and if Mac, Day, Howerton, Olson, and DeVito are able to have fun with it, we will cotninue to enjoy it from our side. This eighteenth season feels as fresh as the first and I hope this show never goes off the air. Go to Full Review Jamie Parker CBR Aug 11

Ryan O @ryanoc7 4h Best comedy show of all time See more m C @MC34225 8h It’s Always Sunny used to be my favourite show. Many seasons now have had me begging for the gang to call it quits. When the cast themselves are dying in real life, and few of them look well on the way, it feels like I’m less laughing at the wacky hijinks and more being reminded of the ravages of time slowly eating away at the actors, and indeed myself… See more Brayden B @RT34128451 10h A great way to start season 18! Super funny episodes See more Todd A @RT78148447 14h Get better and back to the basics. See more Heather V @Hvmarie225 1d These first 2 episodes r hilarious. I cant wait for the next!
