10 Best It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia Episodes

10. Sweet Dee Dates A Re*****d Person

This episode tops the list for being one of the most accurate depictions of the show's core identity, that being risqué humour that challenges social norms. The first plot sees Sweet Dee addressing the possibility that her boyfriend, Lil Kev, may have severe learning difficulties. The second is the rest of the gang attempting to make a band, and as you would expect, having a lot of creative disputes.

This episode is the first time we get to experience the musical talent of Charlie Day. Day is a truly unique performer, and his ability to play multiple instruments while singing brings some humorous moments to the episode. The biggest is the creation of the iconic Day Man song, which would become one of the show's most popular signatures.

While the music-making plot is an ample reason for this episode ranking in the top ten, the storyline with Dee also helps bring it up. It is a perfect Always Sunny recipe for comedy, taking one of the characters and placing them in an uncomfortable scenario, but one that any sensible person could fix. The ending too lets every member of the gang receive their punishment for the selfish behaviour they have displayed throughout the runtime.
