Arguably the most unique show currently on air, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia has been running since 2005 and shows no signs of slowing down. Having recently been renewed for a 15th season, this dark, twisted and daring comedy is the longest running live action American sit-com in history.

Following the exploits of five selfish, alcoholic, offensive and cruel underachievers who co-own an Irish bar in Philly, It's Always Sunny's episodes often centre on controversial topics and poke fun of various aspects of American life.

Created by star Rob McElhenney and with the majority of episodes written by McElhenney and co-stars Charlie Day and Glenn Howerton, the cast is rounded out by Kaitlin Olson and Danny DeVito. It's a testament to these actors' committed, hysterical and intelligent performances that the show has been around for so long.

Having already developed a large following, It's Always Sunny is destined to go down as one of the greatest shows of all time - one which takes risks with every scene, but makes them pay off constantly.
