10 TV Questions That STILL Have You Confused

10. What's The Waitress' Name? - It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia

One of the biggest questions in any romantic story is "Will they or won't they?", but in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, there's a more profound question revolving around Charlie's romantic entanglement with The Waitress - "What the heck is her name?"

Despite being a recurring character since the pilot, The Waitress' true identity has never been revealed. Even though Charlie is infatuated with her and briefly dated her, he never refers to the love of his life as anything except "The Waitress", even when she gets a different job.

What makes this gag more ridiculous is how the rest of The Gang can't seem to recall her name, even though they've known her since high school. When The Waitress outright asks Dee to say her name, she draws a blank.

Since It's Always Sunny is still on the air, it's possible The Waitress' identity will be revealed in a future episode - after all, Mac's embarrassing full name, Ronald McDonald, was finally unveiled after seven seasons - but nevertheless, it's pretty impressive how the show has kept this mystery going for so long.
