Season One

The seven-episode long first season of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" is an admirable low-budget production and a well-written show all-around. What makes it truly impressive is that it manages to become the best and funniest sitcom currently on television in the space of just its first episode "The Gang Gets Racist". Also standing out as a piece of brilliant comic writing is "Gun Fever", guest-starring Michael Rosenbaum. I have to say I found the season finale to be quite funny but hardly as good as many claim

Season average based on ratings for all episodes:

8.86/10
