“It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” is finally back for its 16th season, taking fans back to the familiar world of Paddy’s Pub — though some of its corners may be more familiar than others.
In Season 16, Episode 2, “Frank shoots every gang member”, Mac (Rob McElhenney series author) quickly reconnects with his uncle Donald. Although Charlie (Charlie Day) is shocked to see how much kinder Donald is compared to the rest of the Mac family, he’s even more confused because he doesn’t seem interested in accepting the relationship. with this potential father figure. When Mac rejects Donald’s attempt to be a companion, they cleverly recreate the classic “Sunny” sequence from Season 4.
The humorous hook in Donald and Mac’s exchange is Mac’s vague but specific excuse for why he can’t seem to do every operation Donald offers. Charlie and Dennis (Glenn Howerton) have an almost identical conversation in Season 4 Episode 4, “Mac Beats the Waitress”. When Charlie arrives at Dennis and Mac’s apartment with 24 beers to spend the night with Mac, he uses every excuse possible to avoid the unusual Dennis.

Howerton recalls, “I think in the scenario it was like, ‘We could play some board games,’ and you would say, ‘No, I don’t really like that,’ or whatever. .” When they arrived on set, however, Howerton and Day drew inspiration from board games (including Chinese Checkers and Connect Four) to spruce up the scene a bit.

During the conversation, he admitted to “stealing some moves” from the “Arrested Development” star. McElhenney readily agreed, surprised that he even noticed Bateman’s mannerisms and tone of voice when re-watching the episode himself.
“He really nailed a dry straight man …” Day (who co-starred with Bateman in the 2011 comedy “Terrible Bosses”) worshiped with a smile. “So whenever you want to be dry, it’s hard not to be like, ‘Oh, I’m playing Bateman.'” Howerton also explained that he enjoys playing the Michael Bluth-style Dennis. , as it offers a rare moment of contrast to Dennis’ usual cartoonish sociology. “I will fully admit it and let go [Bateman] credit… for the way I did that scene with you.”
