It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

I stumbled across an absolutely hysterical show on FX recently and may start to keep up with it.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia stars Danny Devito as a bar owner and his 20-30-something-ish cohorts and some of their general hijinks. The characters are generally pretty dopey individuals, but the situations they get into allows the writers to explore some pretty edgy social critiques.

In the first episode I caught, a man who just moved over from Israel moved into the neighborhood and bought the building next to theirs. Due to some archaic city zoning documents, it turns out that he owns the whole block and ends up trying to push the gang out. In the meantime, they get into a bunch of spats and he erects some fences all around their little otherwise-worthless area and the lead characters resort to making terrorist-like videos, toilet-papering and poop-bag throwing.

You get the drift...I had cramps I was laughing so hard.

I highly recommend this show.

Fox seems to have cracked down on use of videos from the show because most of the Youtube content is now null, but I was able to find an official trailer for the upcoming season. Check it out if you haven't already.
