In an interview with Boston.com, Charlie Day said the words many of us hoped we’d never hear, at least anytime soon: The end of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia is near.
“I think either this next season — season 18 — will be the last, or maybe we’ll try to make it to season 20,” he told the publication.
We were having a conversation about it the other night, and a lot of it depends on FX’s appetite to keep making it. But the good thing is Rob and I and Glenn still love it. We’re still proud of it. We don’t want it to just go away. But at the same time, if they told us, “Season 18 is going to be your last,” then that’s what it would be, and we would try to make it as good as we could. But we’ll see.
Noooooo!
It’s been 17 seasons and 20 years, but honestly, the show was as good in its last season as it’s ever been, even if a few earlier seasons were weaker. It feels almost timeless, like it could go on forever, though the main foursome is obviously busy with other projects: Rob McElhenney owns a soccer team, Kaitlin Olson is pulling in huge ratings with High Potential, and Charlie Day and Glenn Howerton have built successful acting careers outside of It’s Always Sunny.
It’s hard to imagine a world without Sunny, but that day may be coming sooner than any of us would like.
