FTA-TV It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

[RichosGuns]

Anyone rate this show... dark comedy at its finest IMO. A show that is similar to the kind of comedy in Curb Your Enthusiasm, Arrested Development but probably darker and more contrevsial subject matter...

I've only seen a couple of episodes but the trans one last week and the gun one this week were both golden

What does everyone else think of this show?

 

[mulhollanddrive]

Really like this show. I've watched 30 rock before it and it really contrasts how structured and scripted each is, 30 rock is like a playbook, Sunny is fly on the wall type of humour that doesnt have punch lines etc...

I really rate it, its a mix of Curb your enthusiasm and Extras if i had to compare. With some Seinfeld thrown in.

Probably my favourite show on TV at the moment, have seen a few of the later season episodes and they don't lose their quality at all. Hopefully seven keep it on the air, because I'll be looking forward to seeing DeVito in it.

 

[bigguns]

Definitely rate it and 30 Rock - shame that Ch 7 have them both on from 10:30pm. Last night was probably the best evaluation I gave to both (less alcohol in the system LOL) and I reckon that Philadelphia edges 30 Rock.

 

[mulhollanddrive]

I can't figure out Dennis' character, he comes across a bit geeky, but then isnt really.

 

[Willow_2000]

Oh Bugger its on at the same time as the play boy mansion show lol.

Another great episode last night. I missed the first episode but I have seen the rest and I think it is brillant show.

The 3 male characters are all funny and Mac the guy with the beard is one of the best characters on TV. Poking the dead guy with the pool stick and saying "That bitch is dead" and then trying to pick up the dead man's granddaughter. In other episodes he has pretended to be a pro-life activist to meet women, dated a pre-op trans ( "I'm putting the work in now so I am first one in after the operation") and encouraged high school kids to drink in his pub and then said he was going Stag to their prom.

 

[mulhollanddrive]

LOL, yeah Mac is my favourite character. Other people rate Charlie higher, but not me.

I think the show is on the verge of brilliant. It has a great style and humour, but not quite as LOL as curb your enthusiasm.

But its only early on, although I've read on IMDB people say the 2nd season with Danny Devito isnt as good.

 

[wce_all_da_way]

I've seen a few eps from future seasons and I can tell you it is at a very similar quality .

 

[Dont be a lemon]

I also like this show

Is there a rule these days that says the commercial FTA networks have to put their good comedies on after 10.30pm and the shit ones on during prime time?

 

[RichosGuns]

It's back baby!

Season 2 on channel 7 at 11.30pm on Sunday nights. Shocking timeslot but easily the funniest show since Sienfield.

Yer lol

Dee: "How much crack would you recommend for a first time user?"

Crack dealer: "Ummm....$200"

Classic!

 

[Stokes-Selwood-Prismall]

Love this and 30 rock. Channel 7 shafts them both weekly. Pretty ordinary form.

Anyone know any torrent sites with smaller files of these shows eg asd on mininova?

cheers

 

[RichosGuns]

Seriously, 11.30pm tonight channel 7. Watch it! I hate that I'm the only person I know who watches this show

 

[wce_all_da_way]

Depressing that they showed the delayed footy instead of it here... Oh well. I have links for it to be downloaded.

Considering ordering the DVDs if there are any.

 

[Gasometer]

Saw last nights episode (June 7th) and what a laugh! "What's on your feet...flip flops!?'

Gaso

....in america that is, not australia.

The current best show on tv is back on. Second only to Seinfeld in greatness, It has been an average rating on imdb of 9.6 having been voted as near perfection by thousands of ppl.

Seriously though I'm a devoted fan of the show. Go watch it if you haven't already, It is hilarious.

My fave ep is - "Charlie Got Molested."

 

[dont bowl there]

Yeah got the first two episodes of season 4 on Friday, very funny stuff. You can tell by my sig that I am a bit of a fan.

 

[Ruse]

Yeah my sig too is from the show. It's from the episode, "100 Dollar Baby".

The show used to be on seven here at like midnight on sundays but they never showed stuff from season 1 completely stuffing up the show. SBS should've picked it up and put it on right after southpark or Fat Pizza. The show would've exploded here and would have had a huge cult following. I'm just glad I got in right on the ground floor and had an opportunity to watch an episode. I"ve been hooked ever since.

 

[Ruse]

next week is a double episode as well. It's gonna be good.

 

[dont bowl there]

Sweet! Cant wait to watch it.
