The Take
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is not worth watching because its entire premise celebrates moral voids and schemes that harm everyone around the gang with zero cost. The comedy thrives on degeneracy as default behavior rather than sharp satire of it.
The Verdict
The gang's antics prove that wallowing in human failure without any counterweight just breeds more cynicism. Sharp writing occasionally peeks through but gets drowned in the same tired degeneracy season after season.
Skip the gang entirely.
