Why "It's Always Sunny" Is Still So Funny

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia has had one of the longest runs in sitcom history, and it still manages to be absolutely hilarious despite being on the air for over a decade. There are many reasons why this is the case, but in this video essay I wanted to explore the idea of character, specifically character backstory in relation to their parents, and a common TV sitcom trope that the show uses to their advantage. It's these small details that really sell the characters, and why the show is still so effective.

P.S. In case you didn't see the tag in the video, I haven't watched Season 12 as of making this video. I'm a Netflix guy and as it's not on there yet, this video is based on the first 11 seasons instead.

P.P.S. I was sick when recording the voice over, that's why my voice sounds strange.
