The Gang going on the old 'Family Feud' was one of the funniest episodes that I can remember. This was as good as the show gets!

Dee passing out on top of her fart machine made me almost piss my pants.

I laughed so hard when she said "cock". This episode was great. Such a great idea to put these characters in this scenario. I'm surprised it took 10 years before they thought of it.

I was laughing hysterically when she broke the buzzer too!

I think what made this episode great is each character were at their best with their crazy personality:

Frank: Out of control, dancing around, and had his political agenda for his answers!

Dennis: Thinking his answers were smarter then anyone else, and getting annoyed everytime the buzzer went off!

Mac: Not knowing which gameshow rules they were playing with, "You have to form your answer with a question!"

Charlie: The answers he came up with were classic, and if he would have been the 2nd contestant in the lightning round they would have won cause they only needed 5 points (1 point for each question with his stupid answers).

I enjoyed the episode and it had some great moments, but some parts felt a bit too contrived even for this show.

Regarding the Charlie answers. It didn't bother me, but just to nitpick, Family Feud routinely throws out odd ball answers to the survey. That's why they say "Top X answers on the board" and you never (AFAIK) see a response with 1 point.

This season has been great so far.

Even though I figured Charlie had taken the survey after the first two questions, it was still hilarious to see Nightman as an answer.

True, but this was Family Fight, not Family Feud.

Family Fight is apparently a very powerful show in the Sunny universe since if you watch the fake credits, "Vlad Putin" is listed as one of the production assistants.

Don't leave out the great Hugh Manturd.

I liked the premise (as I enjoy Family Feud), but only laughed once during the episode.

Charlie's bucket of blood was funny, but I completely lost it with Charlie and Dee in the hallway with the plastic grocery bag of blood. Mac's "playing both sides" wasn't bad, but they've made him now even dumber than Charlie.

When will there be a Sunny / Bar Rescue crossover?

Yea, the gang has gotten really stupid over the years. Or really stupid when the plot needs it. I still like the show (the episode last year where the gang saves the day at the quick stop is a top 3 all time for me), but sometimes I wonder how any of them even function based on how stupid they act at times. Also the too easy way for a joke.

I had to pause it like half a dozen times because I was laughing so hard. The Charlie in charge episode was great too but it didn't have my stomach hurting from laughing the way this one did.

Charlie is the best character by far. The way he said, "your security guard just choked himself out," was hilarious.

That's what I like about It's Always Sunny. Most shows have one dumb character or one crazy character or one straight character. This show changes up those roles based on the plot which helps keep the show fresh.

While Mac was being incredibly stupid with the playing both sides thing, I'd hardly say it was out of character.

I thought this episode was hilarious. I was cringing and laughing my ass off during the blood scenes.

I loved how normal they made that conversation about the hole seem in the open. "it was like an anti-science thing".

Charlie had a lot more common sense this season. He's still ridiculously dumb but he has gotten numerous "moments of clarity" where he is easily the smartest the group. Mac did get dumber.

Seems like Dennis has been the one who's hardest to write for. He's got his issues, and he's pathological, but his schtick just isn't as funny/crazy as the rest, same with Dee, but she's funny the way everyone piles on her.

I just love how effortless it is for Dennis to insult you. Like when Dee was read reading the succession plan he's like "it make's sense. Don't be a bitch." Made me laugh so hard.

Light is just on or off, it doesn't have a speed.
