"Superb"

I have to admit that I was growing less fond of It's Always Sunny in Philly before this episode. However, a great effort by the team here has made me think twice. The songs were great by everyone, the cast has gelled together well which includes Danny DeVito aswell, who I haven't really liked in this show. Actually this episode may have done better since it actually had less of him in it.

Anyway great songs, and good stories. The jokes were decent, and even the side story of Dee dating Kevin (well it became the side story) was a good one. Definitely a better episode in the series.moreless

Day Man should be released as a song! Genius! =)

This is one of my favourite It's Always Sunny episodes EVER! The Day Man song Charlie and Dennis creates is just absolute genius! if they released that song, i can guarantee it would sell! =)

I am still not 100% sure bout Danny DeVito though! still unsure if he fits within the show (No pun on his height there), just sometimes he just doesnt not need to be in the show, half of the stuff he does or says i don't find really as funny as if Charlie, Dennis or Mac done or said it! I am not the only person who thinks this either, some of my friends think the same, and probably some of you aswell, i know he is a big name, ad has brought the show more into the lime-light because of the big name actor, but apart from that, he has brought nothing new to the show for me, i think it was fine where it was before Frank came into it, in the background, still hilariously funny, but in the background, under the radar as they say, people still watched it and talked about it, but new people watched it from word of mouth from friends and so forth if that makes sense! probably doesnt but did in my head when i was thinking about it lol =)moreless

I loved this episode!

This episode of It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia was hilarious!! I loved it and can't get Day Man out of my head! Haha.. I haven't laughed this much at a tv show in a while. It was great! Charlie has a pretty good voice by the way..

The first few episodes of this season I didn't find incredibly funny, like I heard the show was. But this episode definately was. This is what It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia needed to pick it back up. I can't wait to see seasons 1 and 2 on dvd now!

This episode was pretty much amazing!moreless

Dayman! Fighter of the Nightman!!!! Champion of the Sun!

This show never lets me down. I also love how Dennis has become so crazy and evil this season. I had slight slight trouble warming up to Danny Devito in Season 2, but he's one of the family in Season 3. I love every season though for different reasons. Electric Dream Machine is my favorite obviously, but there are so many great parts of this episode really. Dayman! Fighter of the Nightman!!!! Champion of the Sun! I can't believe Season 3 is over already. Is it? I can't tell. Why did they have to run 2 episodes a week for 5 weeks? I would have preffered 1 episode per week for 10 weeks. Eh...whatever.moreless

Mac: What's the other meaning? Frank: What? Mac: Other than a cookie, what's the other meaning? Frank: It's a, you know, it's a sexual meaning. Mac: No, we are not the Pecan Sandies, all right? We are Chemical Toilet. Because chicks want guys that wear tight pants and tattered clothing and spit blood -- not guys dress like waiters who name themselves after desserts.
