A wonderful xmas neo-classic if you love absurdist, abusive humor. No one is going to be interested in this title if they aren't already a fan of the show. It's certainly up there with some of their better scripts as well.

This is bound to make it in your regular holiday rotation. I bought the Blu-Ray but it doesn't appear to have been shot in HD cameras. It's a little grainy compared to their newer seasons which have since switched to being shot in HD. It might not be worth the extra cash for the blu ray - but no matter what format you buy - this is just an amazing movie. There are many scenes that will have you laughing out loud.

I received the video gift set before Christmas (which was great because I was later in ordering it so it would have been my fault if I didn't get it before Christmas). It was package nicely & all was as the seller said it was. I would for sure order from this seller. again.

I gave this item as a gift. My son loves the video. he has other ones in his collection. It was in perfect condition.

Always Sunny Christmas Special was one of my favorites yet. Everyone watching enjoyed it, well worth the price to buy this on Blu-ray!

This is the Best Dark Comedy on TV in Amazing HD!
there are reviews on here stating it's not in HD, they are wrong!
It fill my 70 inch HDTV with HD Magic!
Must buy, worth the money...
Uneditted, and uncencored!
100% must buy! Amazing!
remember how good the show use to be....

In typical Always Sunny fashion, the gang celebrates Christmas. I've been wanting this ever since it was released, but struggled with paying so much for one episode. Granted it comes with coasters, but still...

There is nudity in this episode and the worst part about it, it is Frank (Danny Devito)! It is sooooo funny and worth seeing the show just for that moment. If you are a fan of Always Sunny, I can't recommend this more, however I would just suggest holding out until a good deal comes along. Merry Christmas Boners.

This show is the funniest show on television. The Christmas special was made for DVD so you will get a whole lot more including a naked christmas elf. The gang is all together in this holiday edition of Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Dennis and Deandra, Mac and Charlie and Danny DeVito as Frank are together discussing their individual christmas memories. The stuff going on in this show, as always, is completely out of control, off the wall and the most hilarious issues that are so unreal but not too unreal. Their personalities are just perfect, the way they talk to eachother the things they say is just crazy funny. This is great show, the christmas special is just as great, get it, it is worth owning, watch it over and over again. Make it a holiday thing.

I loved the first season: twisted, low-key genius. The second season was still good but DeVito's presence takes away from the bare-bones charm of season one. Season Three, you can already feel the actors kind of locking into the easy choices and playing up what they know has worked before. Haven't seen the other seasons yet, but grabbed this from Flockcluster to get Xmas in my brain as it's 103 outside right now.

Sigh. I got maybe two good laughs in 42 minutes here, whereas in Season One I got two good laughs a minute. It's not because I'm used to it all, it's because the writing is getting lazy. You can feel that they've gained some fame by this point and it's all a little too easy for them; there's just not enough edge here. Sure, there's plenty of edgy ideas and lines, but the feel isn't there. Case in point: biting Santa. Too much blood, not enough real humor. Wow, you bit Santa. Quick guffaw. But that's it. The early shows on cancer and abortion had more depth to them, as much as a show this wonderfully shallow can have depth. This is the single worst episode I've seen of about thirty-plus so far.

Plus which, how do they sell this for 25 clams?! There's one 42 minute show, a 7 minute doc, less than 3 minutes of deleted scenes...and that's it. That's less than an hour of stuff. Sell it for 10, maybe, but never 25.

Yet that just proves that the shark has been jumped; they're in cash-grab mode now, but frankly this is just a rip-off. On this site it's barely cheaper than the entire first and second seasons, which offer literally almost ten times more show, and far more humor.

If you're a huge fan of the show, rent this, maybe. But if I was a fan and got this for Xmas, I'd feel like Frank's kids: ripped off, cheated, scammed, kablooey.

I lOOOVE Always Sunny seen every episode and continue to watch every episode but the blu ray version isn't in HD. So it was little disappointing since i paid a little extra for blu ray. but still i liked the movie its a MUST SEE
