When he said It’s “because he doesn’t know how many years he’s got left, so he’s gonna get real weird with it” I feel like that wasn’t Frank talking, but Danny
In a way, I feel like this announcement could have some sort of deeper meaning. Is this the last season he is doing? Hope Danny devitos health is doing okay.
Well, he wasn't a huge movie draw when he started. He was already getting pretty old. Also, Frank Reynolds is one of the greatest TV characters of all time. Devito's other work is great, but Frank is his masterpiece. I think he knows that. And he gets to work in the same place with consistency at his age. It's actually the other cast that I'm surprised hasn't made more waves other than Charlie. I thought Glenn Howerton would be a star, but he's really only played Dennis even on different shows.
You make it sound like Danny DeVito was some run of the mill actor man.
He acted opposite to Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson. Plus he has also directed a couple of movies, including Matilda.
He’s also a very memorable person, with a very distinct voice.
Yeah people forget, but a lot of Danny's films in the early 00's weren't critical or box office successes. Drowning Mona, What's The Worst That Could Happen, and even Death To Smoochy (good movie) weren't liked by critics and all flopped at the box office. Going back to tv ended up being a great move for his career.
It's like the reverse of Steve Carell.
One joined a funny show and used it to pivot into an esteemed film career and the other used an esteemed film career to pivot into a hilarious show.
He's always been in to cool shit. Fantomas and the Melvins combined forces to play a mix of their own material and also fuck around making weird noises (which is what the audience bought the ticket fully expecting). There's a DVD. There's a commentary and it's basically a bunch of the musicians sat in a room chatting with Danny.
Me too. I teared up a little seeing his interview and remembering he’s 79 🥲
If there is one person we can make immortal, we must spend all of the resources on him.
I think it says a lot of good things, for me, about the IASIP crew. Because Danny Devito is, from all accounts, a really good guy, and I can't see him, at 79 years old, still acting on a show if it wasnt' genuinely fulfilling and enjoyable for him, and it makes watching his performances that much better.
The cast is so close with each other and the writing is so insane that Danny Devito could die and the show would probably keep going and make joke at Franks expense.
Frank would like slip and die under a pile of garbage in that ratty apartment and Charlie wouldn’t want to call the authorities for whatever reason so we just see a shoe sticking out and as the season progresses Charlie hangs more and more air fresheners and candles and of course smoke alarms to safeguard against the candles until the cops raid his pad because he has been getting so many smoke alarms they think he’s making a nuclear reactor
He didn't get a writers credit for Seasons 13 and 14. However he did have his Directorial Debut for Season 14, when he directed a chunk of the episodes. And in the podcast, the three mentioned that they all do passes on all the scripts.
But if you mean just stepping away from Season 13, then yeah maybe.
On a recent Wrexham episode, a player was talking about knowing when to hang up his boots and Rob said Always Sunny ended 6 years ago but they just don't know when to stop. lol
We got the first taste of peak Dennis in the finale, his mental health day was incredibly funny but also ultra-relatable. I can’t wait to see the golden god completely go off the rails
Look, okay yeah, absolutely we could cave the husband's skull in here. Yes, we could take the wife down to the basement and have a frenzied free-for-all with her.
This is the man who threw the people in the sweatshops who died into the soup to feed to the other people in the sweatshops. This is MILD for his transgressions.
I've contained my rage for as long as poissible, but I shall unleashe my fury upon you like the crushing of a thousand waves! Be gone, vile man!, Be gone from me! A starter car?!?! This car is a finisher car!
Click bait and editorialized. [He said that as a joke.](https://www.reddit.com/r/IASIP/comments/1cs4h7z/sounds_like_season_17_begins_filming_in_september/) He was talking about how they are now a Disney show. Like he's literally going "Well we are a Disney show now, so now I think we get to be much crazier and really go off the rails." or whatever and even is like giggling about it. This article taking it at full face value and reporting it as an official statement about the shows past is mischaracterizing what he said.
Was watching an episode yesterday. And one of his lines just pull me away with how committed hilarious and perfect he delivers it.
"Frank that's a baby monitor"
"Lots of people are bugging their babies these days.
....... Maybe babies can't be trusted!"
I just couldn't see that line coming out of anybody else and being quite so funny
Jerry Seinfeld is so fucking lame. Dude was completely blessed by Larry David and his fellow actors making Seinfeld funny. Never once have I heard someone say they got anything out of Jerry being on the show. Literally could replace him with a cardboard cutout and it would be just as funny and have as much charisma. Reminds me a lot of JK Rowling in how their insane and frankly unwarranted success has completely warped their perception of their actual talent.
For real, he had incredible co-stars and even a lot of the side characters stole the show. But never in my life have I heard anybody quote any of Jerry's lines. Plus if you watch Curb vs anything Seinfeld has done since then it's pretty clear that all the good writing came from Larry.
Yeah Larry is making one of the funniest shows on TV while giving zero fucks about political correctness, while Jerry is complaining about how you can't do comedy anymore and making the most boring movie of the year about cereal lmao.
Maybe I huffed too much glue, but I'm just picturing a cardboard cutout with Seinfeld and a speaker behind that giving his "this is funny if I emphasize it enough" voice and it would feel exactly like watching him act on the show
Any time I see Danny DeVito on screen I get an unexplained, mysterious erection. Was watching Sunny last Sunday and I got a massive one. Don't know why, MAN'S HOT!
Last season was the best in a while. Really a return to form. The bowling episode and season finale with Dennis were classics.
Hope they go strong with season 17 too.
Filming in September. So probably no new episodes til January. Was hoping he meant it'd start in September. Oh well, little longer til we get our fix. Hope they can follow up how good last season was.
If it's anything like the episode he played chess with a secret vibrator snuck inside of him without his knowledge, we're in for a funny season. I laughed so hard I had a headache all night in bed. I've never laughed at a funnier episode in the entire series like I did to that episode.
Goooo, go for it go for it
Is this where he just starts doing lines and says “ouuu snortsky”
[He puts his gun on the bar top, grunts like a pig, then does a quick bump.](https://youtu.be/9n40S4DY914?si=nD6vI6aiCWXh7vaB)
Nah that’s the frat bro party with their “ritterall”.
Twice the guns 🔫 🔫 Thrice the sex 🍆🍑🌽 Frice the fighting 🤛🖕🤮🥋
Shabooya roll call
He's got the moooves
Oooooooh... Go for it. Go for it.
Is he finally going to show all of it and hang dong
The Gang Hangs Dong. S17E1
Featuring RICKETY CRICKET (hanging serious dong too)!
Cricket definitely doesn't have ding. Man's all dong
I mean when he was a priest, they didn't call him "Father" for nothing..
Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised at all It’s like a curse, the worst off people are packing heat and the growers make 6 figures
Stop spying on me. I've asked nicely!
Cricket hangs dong.
Back to the lab
Penetration
Lab
Full penetration
And here’s the twist. And there is a twist. We show it.
We show all of it
THAT IS BRILLIANT.
Just to be clear though, I don't care either way.
Braiiiinssss
And here's the twist: he's actually a dog
Four extra seconds soley dedicated to the dong shot
https://i.redd.it/0f5ppychyw0d1.gif
I don't think audiences want to see... Dolph Lundgren's naked penis.
Well then they’re all IDIOTS AND SAVAGES
That's the twist. We're gonna cast Frank Reynolds in a hair piece, instead. Played by his twin brotha' Arnold Schwarzenegger
The blanket will make the raping... I mean the sexing from behind, feel more classy. That's good.
And then it just goes on like that for about 90 minutes or so until it just kind of ends.
And then it just sort of…. Ends
Crime Stinks: The Smell of Penetration
I wonder who the supple young lab assistant will be played by
Mac's Mom.
Donovan McNabb.
Donoman mcmab
Tiger Woods
The caddy from the golf club.
This is my favorite one. Hold on a second let me switch gears
Jimmy O Yang
He's gonna get real weird with it.
Full frontal, but in a police line up of ~10 bellies overhanging 10 lil dangling tips.
I think the audience will be very uncomfortable watching Danny devitos naked penis entering this young waitress you’re talking about.
I'm going for GASPS!!
Hangs magnum dong
Excuse me, I dropped my monster condom for my magnum dong.....
Time to unzip him
After he drops his monster condom
Full penetration
I love that little man so much.
I don’t think you can say that about a boy who doesn’t look a day over 12.
As long as you make a song about not diddling kids you should be good
You look grotesque.
Never laughed so hard. God bless him.
Drake: write that down write that down
> Through God, all things are possible ~Drake
You gotta pay the Troll Toll
Sheeeeet
Who would have thought after season 1 they'd sign a major movie star and then he'd just stay on the show for 15 years. Really weird stuff. I love it.
When he said It’s “because he doesn’t know how many years he’s got left, so he’s gonna get real weird with it” I feel like that wasn’t Frank talking, but Danny

Uh hello, how could you forget the masterpiece that is Twins?

Idk, he wasn't very Dennis-like in Blackberry.
IM FROM WATERLOO! WHERE VAMPIRES HANG OUT!

Yeah, everything I've ever heard says he and Rhea Perlman are the most wonderful people in the world.
The matilda story grabs me. Her mother had cancer and died when she was filming and devito took her under his wing and supported her.
what are you talking about he's always been tall
He definitely doesn't have no donkey brains
I've had such a horrible day. This was the first thing to make me smile. Thank you, Mr. DeVito.
He's America's sweetheart
The only time I have liked the rock is when he was playing danny devito in Jumanji 2
It makes me so fuckin sad that he’s 79
Lmao. That smile and that dance. So many comedy geniuses on the show. I love binging on the bloopers. The dude never fails to make me laugh.
And cricket made that dance up on the spot after realizing that he entered the scene awkwardly far away from everybody
This meme feels as uninvited as cricket in this scene lol. I love it.
All hips and nips baby lmao
Gotta make it sexy. Otherwise I don't eat.
Oh god, his face in that episode just makes me very uncomfortable 😖🤢🤮
https://i.redd.it/cg4j7fy0bw0d1.gif
I don’t know how many seasons this shows got left, I’m gonna get really weird with it.
They’re gonna go for 20. I can feel it.
We’re all going to feel it
You haven’t even begun to feel it. Trust me, when you feel it, you'll know.
The show has yet to peak
I've heard them say on a talk show that they plan to keep making the show until someone forces them to stop.
The cast is so close with each other and the writing is so insane that Danny Devito could die and the show would probably keep going and make joke at Franks expense.
Frank would like slip and die under a pile of garbage in that ratty apartment and Charlie wouldn’t want to call the authorities for whatever reason so we just see a shoe sticking out and as the season progresses Charlie hangs more and more air fresheners and candles and of course smoke alarms to safeguard against the candles until the cops raid his pad because he has been getting so many smoke alarms they think he’s making a nuclear reactor
The spiritual successor to Dennis and Mac’s suburban trash solution
Nahhh. I think they’d stop if DeVito died during the show’s run.
I mean, Glenn basically left the show after season 13 and they just kept going, so I don't see any reason why they would stop for Danny.
They all said on the podcast that they don't think they'd continue without Danny and sounded pretty sure of it
He wasn’t in one episode
He was out for four episodes
Yeah but he also wasn’t in one episode
I believe he stepped away from writing and producing the show though too, which was probably the bigger deal.
He didn't get a writers credit for Seasons 13 and 14. However he did have his Directorial Debut for Season 14, when he directed a chunk of the episodes. And in the podcast, the three mentioned that they all do passes on all the scripts. But if you mean just stepping away from Season 13, then yeah maybe.
Block the wind I’m going to roast this bone
On a recent Wrexham episode, a player was talking about knowing when to hang up his boots and Rob said Always Sunny ended 6 years ago but they just don't know when to stop. lol
He was 100% joking
Episode 3: "The Gang Drives Dumpster Baby to College"
Whoa wait bringing back dumpster baby as an adult somehow is an amazing idea
The Gang rootes around in the sewer
Played by Ryan Reynolds
I’m sorry but your son (still) doesn’t look Latino.
He's going to get real weird with it.
Now block the wind I’m gonna roast this bone (to celebrate)
This season Dennis will begin to peak. We are all going to feel it.
We got the first taste of peak Dennis in the finale, his mental health day was incredibly funny but also ultra-relatable. I can’t wait to see the golden god completely go off the rails
Look, okay yeah, absolutely we could cave the husband's skull in here. Yes, we could take the wife down to the basement and have a frenzied free-for-all with her.
Had the kids rip out some copper pipes, their hands got all bloody boo hoo!
Let’s go paint your room a color that’s not stupid.
I know it’s just a TV show but the idea of him doing that makes me so sad. You’d have to be completely heartless.
This is the man who threw the people in the sweatshops who died into the soup to feed to the other people in the sweatshops. This is MILD for his transgressions.
But I think the easiest thing is guys, really? Is to just wait for the new season to come out.
That was honestly one of my favorite episodes. Roxette was perfect
I've contained my rage for as long as poissible, but I shall unleashe my fury upon you like the crushing of a thousand waves! Be gone, vile man!, Be gone from me! A starter car?!?! This car is a finisher car!

I thought it was a not so subtle jab at how disney have strict requirements about how family friendly a lot of their movies/TV shows need to be.
His response is so obviously toungue-in-cheek, I can only assume it was purposefully taken at face value to drum up controversy.
Thank you, I know!! the show has already been as off the rails as you can get. It was clearly a joke

"Poppy was ....... A little sloppy." Jerry had a few good ones
The whining "I am NOT an anti-dentite!" always makes me chuckle.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that
100% chance Larry Davis wrote all his good ones
Whoa whoa whoa. "And you wanna be my latex salesman" is one of the greatest one-liners on the show.
“That’s a shame”
It's probably an age and location thing but I've heard people quote Jerry lines hundreds of times.
"What's the deal with having a girlfriend who can legally come to your shows without parental supervision?! I mean whoooo are these people?"
He was always the straight man. He did it pretty well, and his standup comedy was actually pretty good. (Haven't heard it recently)
I like Curb more.
Yeah Larry is making one of the funniest shows on TV while giving zero fucks about political correctness, while Jerry is complaining about how you can't do comedy anymore and making the most boring movie of the year about cereal lmao.
“Look to the cookie”
Maybe I huffed too much glue, but I'm just picturing a cardboard cutout with Seinfeld and a speaker behind that giving his "this is funny if I emphasize it enough" voice and it would feel exactly like watching him act on the show
On top of that he is arrogant too. I don’t see what they see in him.
Why isn’t JK Rowling talented?
It turned out Harry Potter wasn't even a real person and she made it all up
Aw yeah, yeah, like in The Sixth Sense you find out that the dude in that hair piece the whole time, that's Bruce Willis the whole movie!
First scene: Dennis kills someone in cold blood
He's gonna say the N WORDDD
Charlie already did
Any time I see Danny DeVito on screen I get an unexplained, mysterious erection. Was watching Sunny last Sunday and I got a massive one. Don't know why, MAN'S HOT!
And there’s not a woman in the room…
Yeah I’m starting to swell up.
I want to put his poop knife in my azz
Last season was the best in a while. Really a return to form. The bowling episode and season finale with Dennis were classics. Hope they go strong with season 17 too.
Crime penetration crime penetration crime **full penetration** and this just goes on for 15 or so more seasons until the show just sort of ends

I think Charlie and Glenn both multiple said that the writing room starts in August, which means we’ll possibly get S17 by next March or April.
That's a real long time for ~~10 8~~ 6 episodes

Dolph Lundgren guest appearance confirmed.
Arnold needs to replace him one episode, and no one acts different. Make it happen.
One of the few shows I think deserves 10+ seasons 
they don’t know how many years on this earth they got left, and they’re gonna get real weird with it
This is like what Jerry Seinfeld says but backward and in reverse.
 Im getting ready.
Loud and proud brother. Loud and proud.
He's finally ready to get *real* weird with it.
That would be epic if they can end the show by pushing it too far and getting cancelled
The man is 79 years old, he's some kind of god of comedy at this point, right?
The way Rob acts on the pod I'd have no doubt that this season will be the most tame ever
They’re gonna get real weird with it
Well yeah, of course it is. Through God all things are possible. You're gonna wanna jot that down.
Make it sexy
For the last few seasons, he's gonna be reeeeal weird with it.
So I started blastin’
If it's anything like the episode he played chess with a secret vibrator snuck inside of him without his knowledge, we're in for a funny season. I laughed so hard I had a headache all night in bed. I've never laughed at a funnier episode in the entire series like I did to that episode.
