Of course Frank had the most disgusting wreching face. He's disgusting - a disgusting animal

I love the acting that he pulls off, I would have never expected a role from him quite like this :D

I think it's been established Danny DeVito is not acting as Frank, but just playing himself

What? :lol that pig :lol

But I doubt it though.. I mean noone is that raunchy
 
This season's "The Gang Cracks the Liberty Bell". I hate this schtick of explaining their zany antics after the fact. The episode was fairly amusing until the totally gratuitous vomiting scene. Always Sunny didn't always have to rely on this lame gross-out visual humor. While this season is definitely better than the last, it's still a big step down from the average episodes from seasons 1-3.

I'd agree that it's weaker than some of the other episodes this season, but overall, this season has been hysterical so far.

Probably the first episode this season that I didn't think was rushed (edit: The Gang Hits the Road actually fits this description as well, but I feel like they're having a problem with the endings to some of these). Also: hilarious. I especially liked Mac's letter to Chase Utley.

Frank's 'Jesus H. Christ' at the end of that episode is one of my favorite lines from the show ever. The delivery was completely perfect.

His eyes were red as hell this episode :lol Let the record show I thought it was hilarious.

The worst part about this season is that they've made Charlie into a cartoon character. Go back and watch Charlie Has Cancer (S01E04). The great joke with Charlie was he hides his problems and they'd crop up in funny ways. He's barely a human being anymore.

And WHERE IS THE TRANNY?!
 
Definitely the worst episode this season. They were on such a roll too. Oh well, next week's episode looks pretty funny.
 
Really? A lot of you thought this episode was weak? I thought it was easily one of the best of the season. What else could you ask from an episode? You've got lawyering Charlie, Charlie pushing Dennis in front of a car, green man trying to beat up the "Frenetic" and Dee being the useless chick. I couldn't think of a better formula to an episode.
 
I'll agree it wasn't a great episode, but it did have good moments. The wretching, the riotjuice, more greenman, and all the courtroom sequences
 
It wasn't my favorite episode of the season so far (Road trip still owns) but last nights' was really good. Wish there was more between Greenman vs. the Philly Fanatic though.

Lawyering Charlie should stick with what he knows: bird law.

He was out of his comfort zone, and the show struggled because of it.

100% worth it just because near the end the Pepe Silvia in him came back. Just enough to reference and connect to that bit, but not a rehash or just saying HAY IT WAS FUNNY ONCE HAHA LAUGH AGAIN PLEASE.

I think Always Sunny has 2 audiences. One enjoys the various in-jokes, Greenman, ZAAANNY Charlie, slapstick, etc. The other enjoys the naturalistic writing and interwoven subplots. The latter group isn't getting much love post- season 3.

Jesus the analysis that goes into this show is amazing. From season 1 all the way to halfway through 5, I've enjoyed every episode, sure some are "weaker" and some are "roll on the floor awesome" but like honestly. I laugh out loud every episode. What more do you want from a 20 minute episode?

:lol Seriously. I expect pie charts and scientific formulas to accompany thoughts about the show.

Well there is a third group that enjoys both, like me.

Charlie + Lawyering = Instawin

P.S. Dee was hot as hell in this episode.

Honestly, I don't see it. Both my GF and I do enjoy her antics on the show and whatnot but her looks is not a strong point of hers, to us anyways. For example in season 4 when her and Charlie get into wanting to eat human meat- they throw make up her that is supposed to make it look like she is having withdrawals of the meat and such. She looks the same!

A strung out skinny chick with a really bad aging face.

Exactly.
 
And it looks like I'll be buying the Christmas special on Blu-ray when it releases. I have no idea why I thought the scene with Frank crawling out of the couch was in one of the episodes this season.
 
Great episode I thought. Greenman was awesome and when he fought the Fanatic it was win. Everyone got their asses kicked that episode and them trying to find the tunnel was pretty funny too.

She has the smoker's face. :/
 
Are the two "shit, is that a hate crime" dudes the same as the hate crime dudes from Charlie Has Cancer?

I'm loving the throwbacks this season if nothing else!

whats your GF look like?
 
I loved how they shot at the parking lot, and used real player names, but avoided everything else that might get them a lawsuit (Phillys, Phrenetic, Not having the majority of people wear player t-shirts (Even fake ones))
:lol Fun episode though, Greenman & Lawyer Charlie.
Did anyone else notice Greenman in Ashburn Alley during Wednesday's game?

In the preview, it looks like Rickety Cricket is the one who hits Dee with the chair. Glad to see him back.

He's way better in front of the camera than he is behind the MacBook Pro as we learned this week.
