5.0 out of 5 stars Funniest Show on TV, January 2, 2011
By 
M. Vigod (New Jersey, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Season 5 (Amazon Instant Video)
I discovered Sunny in Philadelphia just three weeks ago and was instantly hooked. I have since bought the first 5 seasons to catch up on all I had been missing. The show's concept, writing and execution are all so well done. The cast is excellent and the addition of Danny Devito has been brilliant since season 2. If you are a fan of Seinfeld and/or Curb Your Enthusiasm you will love this show. Each season gets better and better too as the gang really hits their stride with this formula.

Don't walk but run to buy every episode and catch up on the gang's antics.
