It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia will end at some point and series creator Rob McElhenney and stars Glenn Howerton and Charlie Day are in agreement on what the finale will look like. In an interview with AdWeek, McElhenney revealed that the series’ stars have planned the ending for the last decade.
McElhenney, Howerton, Day, Kaitlin Olson, and Danny DeVito star in the FXX comedy about five dysfunctional friends who run an unsuccessful pub in South Philadelphia.
It’s Always Sunny debuted in 2005 and has aired for 16 seasons and 170 episodes so far. The series has had the longest season run of any live-action American comedy series. It’s Always Sunny has been renewed through its 18th season.
McElhenney said the following about how It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia will someday end:
“Ten years ago, I came in and said, ‘Hey guys, I think I have an idea if we ever wanted to end it,’ and I started pitching it. And Charlie said, ‘That’s exactly what I was thinking,’ and then Glenn just finished it. And we had realized that we had never talked about it, and all three of us had the same exact idea. We thought that’s probably a pretty good sign.”
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia wrapped season 16 in July 2023. The premiere date for season 17 has not yet been announced.
