Mega Thread The Random Thoughts Thread Part 3: Try Hard with a Kengeance

Some campaigners on here swear by that It's always sunny in Philadelphia show. Find most of the characters irritating. Does that dweeb from Horrible Bosses just play the same character?

The characters are all irredeemable arseholes

It's a wonderful show but perhaps a bit better when you get accustomed to the build up of running jokes and subtleties of each of the characters. Mac's closet homosexuality, Charlie's illiteracy, Dennis' psychopathic tendancies. Takes a 2 or 3 seasons before these qualities really come out and it becomes more than just a decent sitcom.

Good summary. Also Frank's manipulation and paranoia.

The show really shines when the characters interact with regular people because they're so ****ing weird

Jerry Seinfeld blows as a standup, the TV show was pretty cool though.

I always got that impression though. I wouldn't go and see his standup, but loved the show. Besides, he wasn't even the star of the show. It was clearly George and Elaine with fantastic support from Kramer.

I loved Elaine, her epic outbursts of irrational anger about things is so me. Her outburst on the subway when the power failed and the lights went out makes me lol every time.

Julia Louis Dreyfus is a treasure

That whole cast was perfect

 

[Contested Marx]

Actually I preferred their casting of Jerry in a lot of ways

Those Rafi and Dirty Randy episodes were terrible though imo

Actually I never got into Rafi. Taco was the superior novelty character.

Seinfeld is the greatest show of all time.

If you ever get a chance watch Jerry Seinfeld's 'Getting Coffee In Cars' with Michael Richards.

The League officially jumped the shark when Rafi became a main character. I haven't really watched it since.

Thankfully this never got past a pilot, social media funny and TV funny are two different things

and Titus looks nothing like what I imagined

He should've kept the rights to the show then got a funny looking old bloke to read it out.

I had no idea she was worth a boatload even before Seinfeld. See Nick Kroll.

Trust fund assholes.
