#FIRSTLOOK: “IT’S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA” PREMIERES ON DISNEY+

Today, Disney+ announced the premiere date for Season 17 of FX’s “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” the longest-running live-action comedy series in television history. The new season will debut on Wednesday, July 9. The premiere will include the first two episodes beginning at 9 p.m. ET/PT on FXX, with episodes streaming next day on Disney+ in Canada.

The fan-favourite, ever-inventive series marks the 20th anniversary of its series premiere this year. The new season will include The Gang’s take on meeting “Abbott Elementary” in the conclusion to the highly-anticipated crossover.

In the latest season, “The Gang Embraces The Corporate Era:” The story of how greed and the New American Dream have consumed Paddy’s Pub.

Seventeen seasons on, Ronald “Mac” MacDonald (Rob McElhenney), Charlie Kelly (Charlie Day), Dennis Reynolds (Glenn Howerton), Dee Reynolds (Kaitlin Olson), and Frank Reynolds (Danny DeVito) return to shamelessly shed their “niche” label for grander aspirations.

They’ll exploit cross-network promotion to increase market share; they’ll scapegoat one of their own to avoid a PR backlash; they’ll risk everything for a handshake with the Saudis; they’ll bend the laws with side hustles to pad their pockets; and they’ll change everything about themselves to appeal to a broader audience.

And sure, like any corporate goon, the Gang craves money and parasitic social privileges. That’s been plain since 2005. But they’re also human beings. They crave love.. respect… conditional freedom… constant adulation… histrionic amounts of attention… non-stop gratification… and unfiltered, slaphappy eroticism.

In Season 17, they’ll chase down them all.

And the money. Obviously, the money. They don’t want to spend the rest of their lives working like dogs.
