Always Sunny S16E03 Preview: The Gang Doesn't Want to Be "Rescued"
Here's a look at a sneak preview for tonight's episode of FXX's It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, S16E03 "The Gang Gets Cursed."
After an excellent two-episode return (check out our review), FXX's Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day, Glenn Howerton, Kaitlin Olson & Danny DeVito-starring It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is back this week with an episode that could be another series canon game-changer. Written by David Hornsby (yup, Cricket's back!) and directed by Richie Keen, S16E03 "The Gang Gets Cursed" finds Paddy's about to go under a Bar Rescue renovation. But when some really ominous stuff begins to happen, The Gang thinks they might be… well, you can tell from the title. Except for Mac (McElhenney), who's not only experiencing a serious run of good luck but could also end up turning his childhood dream of playing catch with Chase Utley into a reality. Oh, and did we mention that Bonnie Kelly (Lynne Marie Stewart) & Uncle Jack Kelly (Andrew Friedman) are also on the scene – and being joined by Cheers legend Rhea Perlman?
In the following exclusive sneak preview from IMDB, Mac makes the case for Bar Rescue being a great thing for The Gang (and how long he's been writing them) – but it doesn't look like they're buying into it:
And here's a look back at the trailer for S16E03 "The Gang Gets Cursed," followed by an updated look ahead at what the season still has to offer:
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Season 16 Preview
The Gang is ripping straight from the headlines – Inflation, US-Russian relations, mental health, gender equality, injury liability, gun control, and… celebrity-branded products. But here's a headline for you: "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Returns for Sweet Season 16!" But there's nothing sweet about them as Ronald "Mac" MacDonald (Rob McElhenney), Charlie Kelly (Charlie Day), Dennis Reynolds (Glenn Howerton), Dee Reynolds (Kaitlin Olson), and Frank Reynolds (Danny DeVito) yearn for the past as they attempt to survive in 2023. This year alone, Mac battles with allergies and long-distance dating, Charlie takes on his long-forgotten sisters, Dee fights for rent control and women's athletics, Frank wrestles for his gun, and Dennis struggles to improve his mental health. At the end of the day, they're navigating 2023 with 16 years of baggage as a few figures from their past rear their heads.
