It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia S15: Kaitlin Olson Talks Bog Episode

With only a day to go until Charlie Day, Glenn Howerton, Rob McElhenney, Kaitlin Olson & Danny DeVito return to our screens with the record-setting 15th season of FXX's It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, it's been made pretty clear that The Gang's trip to Ireland is going to be a major highlight of the upcoming season. But that's not the only thing we have to look forward to based on the trailer and what we know about the episodes. Personally, we're looking forward to The Gang's recap of what went down since we all last hung out… and then there's that matter of Olson's Dee and that bog she's in. Thankfully, Olson was kind enough to offer some intel on what we can expect from our next round of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia during an interview with EW– here are some of the highlights.

Yes, Dee Sinks in a Bog & Olson Loves It: "We shot an episode this season where Dee sinks in a bog, which I was very excited about because it sounds hilarious. I also knew it was going to be miserable, which most of my hilarious things are," Olson explained. "They built a bog in a swampy area at the Disney ranch and filled it with some material that was supposedly safe. I kept going, 'What is this made of?,' and they're like, 'Don't worry, it's organic!' Great. So, whatever got in every single orifice of my body was organic. It's the middle of the night, freezing cold, and I have to come out looking like a crazy swamp creature and run off into the woods. Right before we shot, the AD came over and said, 'When you come out, just be really careful because there are a bunch of holes in the ground. Don't step in them. And also stay really close to the bog, otherwise, you'll run out of the shot and we won't be able to use it.'

I go under, come up, open my eyes, and they fill up with whatever this bog is made of. I can't see anything, I could barely walk, I'm trying to remember where the holes are, I half-scream my lines. All I'm thinking is, 'I'm not doing this again, so don't trip and ruin it.' Of course, I nailed it on that first shot, thank you very much… I had Charlie [Day] with me, and he guaranteed that it was funny, so I was like, 'Great, we can go home.' And that was my most excruciating day on set this season — and there's something like that every year."

Olson Loved The Gang Looking Back: "This season [of 'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia'] was particularly fun because we had 2019 and 2020 to write about, and so it's quite a season. I read the scripts and was squealing with delight; it's so much fun. We had a lot of good material out in the world. Our first episode is called '2020: A Year in Review,' and it's wild. [Laughs] People are going to love it and hate it."
