    Season 13 proves McElhenney, Day, and Howerton aren’t out of ideas; the formula they’ve established still works beautifully, and allows them to stretch as far as their creativity demands.

You can tell they managed to convince themselves "oh we can just fill the quota and make it like a joke, like what if we joke its an all female reboot, what if we joke we have an insufferable WOC replacement for dennis, its a joke right because its so awful but really we manage to fill the quota"

    absolutely pathetic guys, you sold your souls, fooled no one and ruined your show. So much trash about men vs women and men do XXXXXX and women XXXXXX all so the cast can tip toe around obviously executive imposed quotas. Mindy Kaling has no place on this show, just yet another quota filler because FX execs feel bad about making a show with too many white people and too many "toxic" men

    yawwwwwn comedy is dead.    … Full Review »

    Every episode seems to have them tackling some modern issue, or trying something new and though i may learn to love it, at the moment, i'm constantly being brought out of the programme.
    The first episode seems to be making fun of shows that introduce a new character and try to carry on as if everything is the same, but it isn't working. This is a clever idea and on repeat viewing, i quite like how they wrote the lines slightly wrong, made jokes slightly not funny and sucked me into thinking 'oh no, my favourite show is doomed', then pulling the curtain back and saying, 'ahh, we're just making a point, we're still good!'
    Something like this is interesting and clever, but many episodes seem to have a point to make, like the female reboot of the wade boggs' episode, the twist on a clip episode, the Home Alone homage, the 'MeToo' episode, the bathroom equality episode... all of these alone would be alright, not the best episodes, but one of the 'okay, not bad' episodes of a season. But altogether, they destroy the flow of the season and make it appear similar to how a band will release a B sides and rarities, where okay, it's great to have the extra content, but really, it wasn't on the albums for a reason.

    I love always sunny and hope to learn to love this season, but at the moment, other than a couple of decent episodes, it's the worst of the 13 to me.    … Full Review »

    Really poor season. The humor is almost entirely gone. New writers have been used that don't seem to understand the characters. Characters areReally poor season. The humor is almost entirely gone. New writers have been used that don't seem to understand the characters. Characters are involved in plots where in previous seasons they would've disregarded it and be sent off on some B-plot. There's a lot of "issue" type themes that normally would not be the central plot in classic sunny episodes but in this season are never left. Every character feels off in terms of dialogue and personality and the episodes are humourless.

    There are 1-2 good episodes in the season that still feel like classic sunny. I don't know why the rest aren't.    … Full Review »
