It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Season 17 Episode 1 and 2 recap: From Abbott Elementary's crossover to Frank's cake coma, here's what happened in the premiere
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia kicked off season 17 with two episodes that dropped on Wednesday, July 9, 2025. The gang rolls in with a crossover nobody expected: Abbott Elementary meets Paddy's Pub.
The gang's idea of court-ordered community service at the elementary school was a total disaster. Frank's version of community service? Strip the school's copper wiring and call it a good day. While the rest of the gang pretends to help, Dennis is busy making coffee, and Charlie ignites a geopolitical debate.
Meanwhile, Dennis and Charlie's attempt at revamping Billy Joel's We Didn't Start the Fire crashes when they realize Fall Out Boy has already done it. Still, they released the chaotic music video.
In episode 2, after a joke about Frank's dying, the gang spirals. While Dee nurses Frank, whose BP has dropped to 50. The twist? Frank was never in a coma.
While the rest of the gang gets trapped in a drug-fueled investor's scam, they met during the Liberty Ball gala. The gang hasn't matured a bit, and the season 17 premiere episodes prove their idiocy.
What to expect from It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia Season 17 Episode 3?
The synopsis of the upcoming episode reads,
"After witnessing EMTs resuscitate a Paddy's patron, Mac and Dennis set out to become the pinnacle of masculinity"
After watching EMTs revive a passed-out barfly at Paddy's Mac, Dennis and the others develop a desire to be one. In true Sunny fashion, what starts as a misguided admiration spirals into disaster. Expect macho delusions, half-baked schemes, and some very questionable attempts at public service.
