It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia S15E03 Preview: The Gang Goes 1998
Now that Charlie Day, Glenn Howerton, Rob McElhenney, Kaitlin Olson & Danny DeVito have cleared up that matter of setting the record for the longest-running live-action comedy show in television history (check out our review of the two-episode season opener here), we have a look ahead at what's in store for The Gang as they solidify their spot on the "Mount Rushmore" of sitcoms. And what better place to start than with FXX's It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Season 15's third episode, "The Gang Buys A Roller Rink" in what appears to be our fivesome's… origin story?!
Now here's a look at what's in store when The Gang flashes back to 1998, a time that will set their destinies (at least for the next 15-18 seasons)- followed by a look ahead at what's in store for the rest of our Always Sunny season:
