It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia - "The Gang Recycles Their Trash" - 10/18/12



It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia - “The Gang Recycles Their Trash” (10/18/12)

Synopsis:

Spoiler:
With the garbage men of Philadelphia on strike, Frank concocts a plan to undercut the union and get the contract to collect the city's trash. But when The Gang's elaborate plan starts to fall apart, everyone will get their hands a little dirtier than expected.

Based on my past trips to Philadelphia, it's about time they tackled the trash problem.

This was beyond terrible. I may be retiring this series from my DVR.

Me no likey. It's like they're not even trying to be funny recycling all the old stuff.

Mac awkwardly trying to kiss Dennis on the mouth made me laugh, which was one more laugh than last week, but they just seemed to be going through the motions this week.

Just because you do a show about how you don't have any new ideas so you phone it in, doesn't change the fact that you're still phoning it in.

Another disappointing episode, considering the last few seasons always seemed to begin pretty strongly, this concerns me. Loved Fat Mac from last season... Dee looked pretty ridiculous in her makeup and the accent she was using was amusing, but overall I watched stone faced

I will continue to watch and hope we get more laughs as the season progresses... crosses fingers...

I was torn. A recreation of their best episode should be gold...but it is just a recreation.

This season's off to a pretty bad start so far. Last week was one of the worst episodes I've seen and this was just too odd/lazy to really go anywhere.

I admit I lost it when Mac tried to kiss Dennis, though.

I didn't think it was THAT bad. Still, as I was watching it I was excited for it to finish so I could watch the League. Looks like the trend of every other season being great is still in effect.

The reusing of old stories isn't clever, its lazy. The little twists were pretty good though.

Still, there were some funny scenes. The strip club scene was funny.

It was OK. Sunny is starting to wear thin with me, but I'll watch until the end of the series. Don't they have another 2 seasons after this? I know they have at least one more.

I liked it too... No "Rum Ham" or Thundergun Express from last season but still funny.

thought it was hilarious! Better than the first episode.

The whole recycling was done well. When Mac had the knife ready made me crack up.

Very good episode.

Not my favorite, but good for some laughs. Thought last week's was terrific.

I've thought they were both hilarious...but no more recycling, I'm not so hot on that part. It was fine last week...but to touch on those episodes again feels forced.

There was some good stuff in there.
