Fans of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia have been getting drip-fed information about the show’s upcoming 18th season bit by bit for the past several weeks. Thanks to a few well-timed interviews, behind-the-scenes photos, and social media posts, we know that Guillermo del Toro is reprising his role as Pappy McPoyle, for instance. Now, we’ve got one of the biggest sneak-peaks yet, as a Reddit user has revealed the full list of episode titles for season 18. Though there’s not much concrete information to glean from the titles alone, fans are letting their imaginations run wild at the idea of the gang’s latest batch of adventures.
Episode Titles Alone Are Total Insanity
Titles for the upcoming Always Sunny episodes include “Frank Marries A Corpse,” “The Gang Buys A Baseball Team,” and “The Gang Goes To The Ren Faire.” Right off the bat, these sound like classic Always Sunny premises, ripe for off-the-walls comedy and a slew of meme-able moments. The title “Gilligan’s Island: A Conspiracy Theorist’s Paradise” makes me think the writers have a lot to say about the recently released Epstein files, while “2026: A Virtual Insanity” all but guarantees a hilarious Jamiroquai needle drop.
One of the most striking revelations to come from the episode titles is the volume of episodes themselves. Recent seasons of the show have reduced their episode count to eight outings per year, leaving us with very little to chew on between seasons. It looks like season 18 will consist of ten episodes, which isn’t a huge upgrade, but I’ll take as much as I can get. As it currently stands, these episodes do not have official codes, meaning we’re not sure what order they’ll be released. Any way you slice it, I’ll be planted in front of the TV to watch “Mac And Dennis Tear Their ACLs” the moment it hits the airwaves.
Is This The End?
There’s another angle to the upcoming Always Sunny In Philadelphia season that’s been tearing fans apart. At this time, nobody has confirmed whether or not season 18 will be the show’s last. The long-running screwball comedy was renewed through season 18 back in 2020, though no official production order has been announced for season 19 and beyond. If this is truly the end, fans are already wondering which of these episodes will serve as the series finale. Some have remarked that “The War On Alcohol” has a nice ring to it, while others seem to agree “Dennis And Dee Don’t Get Rich” is a perfect anticlimactic closer.
No matter what happens, it looks like season 18 is shaping up to be one of the best outings in years, with returning guest stars, hilarious episode titles, and two bonus episodes tacked on for good measure. There’s no official release date in place for the new batch of episodes just yet, but you can binge It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia on Hulu if you’re not fully caught up.
