It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia: 10 Best Characters Who Appeared After Season One

10. Schmitty

In the season six episode The Gang Gets A New Member, we are introduced to the former gang member, Schmitty. Wonderfully played by recent Emmy winner Jason Sudekis, Schmitty is an instantly likable guy who only left the gang because they tried to push him from a moving car.

Pretty extreme, right? It turns out, Charlie gave the gang an ultimatum between either he or Schmitty leaving the group, based on Schmitty not agreeing with the rules of the night time game, Night Crawlers. Schmitty is a level headed guy, who wanted to spend more time with his ill mother before her passing, and went on with his life.

The gang try to lure him back and without even realising it, he alienates them by refusing to allow Dennis to order his meals (which is sound enough) and laughing at their initiation ceremony.

Sudekis is a hoot in the role, making Schmitty an affable character that you would love to grab a beer with. His goading of Mac is hilarious, as is his reaction to being pushed out of the car again. Although we never get a full return, Schmitty does turn up in a hilarious cameo in season seven to ruin Charlie's world yet again.
