SDCC '11 Rob McElhenney "It's Always Sunny" Interview

[Krowsnose]

The same joke over and over with different wording.... sounds like 2 and a half men and the big bang theory

[ghballer18]

mac is so ultimate.

[JumperEMann]

Ultimately.

[vuk06042]

wavesdelicious,they write but they've taken more commercial approach.Rob,Glen and Charlie wrote 5 episodes,Scott Mardell & Rob Rossell,who are with "The Gang"since Season 3 are also writing,as well as David Hornsby(Rickety Cricket),who has been writing for IASIP from season 2.So,it's big misconseption that they changed writers,or that only Rob,Glen and Charlie were the only writers for IASIP until,lets say,season 6,they just changed conception from great black comedy to commercial,edgy sitcom.

[vuk06042]

it was about banging but in black comedy style.IASIP used to be Seinfeld on crack,now it's Friends on crack.banging was mean to make black comedy and used as the plot for long time content,not as words.it was used to show how far are they ready to go to get laid.banging was also mean for blackmail,Dennis blackmailing Charlie that he will bang Waitress,that was funny.We want Dennis who is a genuine piece of shit again and characters with character again,not nightcrawlers and jabroni type of shit

[vuk06042]

wavedelicious,yes,but thing is that IASIP has taken much more commercial approach and sex is just something used in context that wider audience asks."and naturally,we bang".know what i mean?they took regular-sitcom like approach like short time jokes over long time content.simple words like jabroni and other shit have taken highlight from content.my favourite episode of the show is Mac bangs Dennis mom.IASIP used to be much darker and more mature black comedy,it's sitcom for teenagers now.

[wavesdelicious]

for the new ones when the credits say "WRITTEN BY" whoever...

does that mean that they did not write it at all?

in interviews they talk like they still write all the episodes.....

is it some TV revising "tele-play" type deal, or do they seriously not write the show anymore?

[vuk06042]

how much cheese is to much cheese and other retarded regular sitcom like things,talking about sex and banging so they can attract horny teenagers that never got laid and similar things.but there's a catch;altough first 4 seasons of Sunny are best thing in comedy,with it's satirical mockery of taboos and black humor,it didn't sell.they didn't have an office and they wrote scripts at home.they've paid their tribute to art.now they wanna take money.they should,they deserve it.they left great legacy

[wavesdelicious]

@vuk06042 hahahhaha dude it was always about the banging, since day one :)

[vuk06042]

adam4747,i agree that seasons 6&7 were dissapointment.they've changed show's concept to attract broader sitcom audience and it is now just sitcom with fewer restrictions.they've banalised characters and reduced them,themes and dialogues to measure of regular sitcom to attract retards who don't understand subtile satirical black humor that includes awakening worst characteristics.they did it so 90% of people that can't understand it can laugh to retarded things like spaghetti policy.

[264zn]

Such a smart show. Love it.

[sdv0018]

I like him that much more after watching this interview. Cool ideas and smart.

[jenmc813]

OH LOOK ITS DUMPSTER BABY

[bamboneski]

4 people are jibronies who didnt buy vick vinegars dick towels

[b53O]

I bet the show he was talking about where the actors were getting better looking was "Friends" haha.

[scatpack]

he was in and out like a demons whisper lol

[nickyq52]

seasons 1-3, greatest show of all time. season 4 still really good. season 5, starting to see a decline. 6 and 7 absolute shit

[Yayoballer]

I love this show, but imo workaholics was much funnier this year then iasip

[bobTom37]

wow, rob is a great actor but a horrible speaker. lol

[penguinsoulja96]

@bobTom37 horrible speaker? lol it's not like a rehearsed speech or something. when someone's interviewing you and you have to think off the top of your head of course you might say umm a few times

[srikanthb92]

season 7 was a huge piece of shit

[DomestikMC]

@srikanthb92 Chardee MacDennis was a classic

[slop123456789]

@DomestikMC the jersey shore one was way better

[naronarog]

Ultimately this show is awesome.

[frozenstrawbs]

based on his answer to the first q it is obvious why the show sucks nowadays. these guys are confused and have no direction. it was funny while it lasted

[ADCVirgo]

Honestly Best comedy tv show out there Love IASIP

[batidodevomito]

Ultimately, he's trolling us

[ArbyWanKenobi]

2:49 LOLOLOL Eavesdropping Asian woman XD

[indoom666]

@ArbyWanKenobi Shes talking to someone else... are you.. nevermind

[ShortFingeredShreder]

Ultimately, this was an ultimately awesome video...

[KeithPsychosis]

Mac should get super buff for season 8.

[iffyonlove]

At any size I still like him and think he's hot.

[asbani911]

Ultimately..................

[SolidWander]

Charlie cameo at 0:21!

[temolito]

Ultimately a very boring interview

[penguinsoulja96]

@temolito not if youre a true fan of film making. it's interesting to hear the process and insight of a writer and creator of one of my favorite shows

[RedTV8888]

what a jabroni

[TomsFriendKake]

I think he is hotter as a bear than when he was thin.

[jasuncion034]

Thumbs up to the person who keeps count of the Times "Ultimately" is used and gives me the answer!!!!...You will be known as THE ULTIMATEly WARRIOR!

[BomaBoi]

Always sunny finially tells why Mac got Fat.. Best episode this season imo

[dayman52]

keyword is Ultimately

[MDUBBZ42]

So he used "ultimately" a lot.. He's still an incredibly intelligent dude!

[js7vgd]

lol its really not that bad he just starts his answers with ultimately...

[RedDeadAintDead]

I disliked this video. Wildcard Bitches!

[lockoshamface]

@RedDeadAintDead lol very nice!!

[Zanedamage]

it's funny to watch him grow over the seasons, he went from a skinny white guy to Dom from gears 3

[daiklaive]

...he's ultimately almost as inarticulate as his character

[horsefucker1680]

I am obliged to say that all of the producers of the show have a really original view on humor and society. And all of them are of above average intelligence, which is quite rare in the show business.

[horsefucker1680]

AWESOME! He is not a diabetic, he just does not like to dissolve sugar by himself.

[0524manderson]

He's not fat!!! He's cultivating MASS!!!!

[enaznazz]

swear he is talking about how i met your mother half the time when he is referring to other "sitcoms"

[TheMazeOfMystery]

@enaznazz

i thought the exact same thing.

[777mackey777]

Well ultimately..

[msh20msh20]

HE he become soo FAT !!

[quicksilverbalt]

how can anyone say season 7 blows, the shadynasty episode made me nearly piss my pants i laughed so hard.

[hades37]

@jasensullivan BIG FAT MAC

[stinakennedy]

I LOVE IASIP ; )) LOVE LOVE LOVE

[jgrew030]

I think he was talking about The Office, the look better than what they looked in th e original season.

[TheIrredeemable]

@jgrew030

Indeed, as well ass 90% of sitcom stars in general.

[jgrew030]

@TheIrredeemable you're right about that.

[ImSoAlpha]

i thought the fat was fake, damn. emmy incoming.

[Hubahubatime]

ULTIMATE!

[BAMndza]

His mass just make me want to hug him. :)

[maxz461]

love these guys!! sunny phili rules! and btw rob- hot w this hair!!

[Fruscianteistheman]

there is ultimately so much hate on this videos,

ultimately...

haters gunna hate...

[hornick18]

Season 7 is great so far!! Fuck you guys!!

[adamk4747]

SEASON 7 BLOWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fashnek]

Ultimately......

[Saigonsharpnel]

looks like rob put on some baby weight

[WREQUIEM]

@Saigonsharpnel season 7 dumbyhead look at the top comment

[adamk4747]

the show is completely different now , its fucking lame. Last seeason was really the begining of the end the show mac charlie and glenn stopped writing for the show and it shows. PLEASE GUYS JUST STICK THE BASICS STOP KILLING HOOKERS AND GOING TO THE JERSEY SHORE!!!!!!!!!!!!! JUST STAY IN THE BAR AND MAKE FUN OF SHIT. ITS SO SIMPLE BUT AWESOME. THERE JUST TRYING TO TOP THEMSELVES BECAUSE OF MEDIA PRESSURE!!!!!

[GrizCC]

@adamk4747

fuck you fag

[OrbitFighter]

life should be like always sunny... being a complete dick and not having any real consequences... i mean they became crackheads just to get free money haha... man

[mltorley]

I love how his wife had a baby, but he's the one who gained the weight!

[MDUBBZ42]

Rob and Glenn are incredibly intelligent.. Adds to how much I respect the show..

[tonedef11]

2:00 Clearly a reference to FRIENDS.

[strayebyrd]

@tonedef11 the same sort of thing happened in Scrubs as well

[gregridd]

What a LEGEND!



[onigirisensei134]

I really think the strength of the characters lies in the fact that they're similar to the real people. Rob is a serious guy, but he also obviously has an unserious side. But I think that's why he's Mac, not like Charlie. Each of them makes fun of themselves, y'know? Mac's character is based in the fact that he takes himself WAY too seriously.

[TheKjones25]

he thinks too much before he speaks come on its a fucking comedy be a dumb ass and speak it the fuck out dont try to be over professional like this guy is doing hes trying to make his words sound like hes a over the top actor come on now its always sunny in philadelphia.

[FxOxAxDx]

@TheKjones25 Hes someone talking about his art, of course he's gonna take it seriously.

[haudace]

@FxOxAxDx he's a dumass..

[TheKjones25]

@FxOxAxDx never said he didnt have to take it seriously but he could take it down a little bit on the big words as much as i understand a intelligent response to such a great show i would love to see him just let loose and say the stupid fucking shit that i love and am used to hearing and by the way i love the fact the hes gained a shit load of weight it just adds more humor to his art of acting.

[Preeemo]

@TheKjones25 Not only is he the creator of the show, but he's a producer and writer... he's bound to give a shit about what he's talking about if he's talking about his show.

[TheKjones25]

@Preeemo thank you for your brilliant response to my comment you know i just got to say this is a great show and im sure rob mcelhenney is bound to give a shit about how he is explaining his show and he infact will do his best to be professional. but you see this where i have a problem as somebody who watches the show i dont want nor do i need a complex explanation of one of my favorite shows now i do respect rob as a actor but i will say this kiss my ass and stop it with the big words.

[sliipknoot]

@TheKjones25 And thats like your opinion, maan... but other people may want a proffessional interview and actually be interested in things concerning the making of the show. Why do you have such a problem with "big" words ? are you unable to understand what hes saying or ?

[TheKjones25]

@sliipknoot i am able to understand big words just fine but i prefer a more simple and immature way of saying things because im not a serious asshole with a stick up my ass.

[sliipknoot]

@TheKjones25 Well, you sound like an idiot. Are you immature to all people around you ?

[TheKjones25]

@sliipknoot i am an idiot when i want to be and i love being immature because it keeps me young and it pisses off those who expect or want me to be mature you got your choices in life if you want to be what everyone else wants you to be thats really easy just be a uptight serious asshole with no sense of humor if you want have fun and be immature and act like an idiot while still being serious when you need to be then you got my personality figured out dont be mad at me for being a free spirit.

[sliipknoot]

@TheKjones25 yeah sure, amen to that, But part of Robs personality is being serious about his work, Mac is just a character, so dont be hatin on that guy for talking big words..

[TheKjones25]

@sliipknoot okay i agree with you that he has a image to keep up and be professional when he is off set but im sorry im just too involved in his character on the show i guess thats my weak point in television but i show no shame by the way did you catch last nights episode where they put on a childrens pageant i fucking loved it i give my respect to the writers and producers what a great show thats all i got to say.

[MoldytoasterMedia]

this fatass needs to hit the gym... stop eating so many twinkles.

[discorobotz]

Certainly 

[KJ0012]

drink a shot every time he says ultimately!

[cancern]

wtf is going on with ultimately



[RennyConti]

the

[RoboticTechnician]

2:00 the office

[ferris0913]

@RoboticTechnician .....Friends.

[LizardKing97051]

Ultimately he should just use ultimately alot or else ultimately the word will ultimately diminish in it's ultimate capacity to be ultimate.

[MiRyRE]

@LizardKing97051 To me, I ultimately realized that at the end. That's just to me though.

[icwutudidtharlulz]

@LizardKing97051 ultimately, my room mate uses that word probably more than he does. it make me fucking sick.

[My4HWW]

he says "ultimately" way too much...

[disengagejam]

Project Badass has gone to the extreme !!!!

[StripedTiger711]

Disgusting beard? No such thing.

[aaronscott1983]

The words of a Genuis my friends

[FishDontBlinq]

Everyone calls his baby a dumpster baby. Yeah didn't see that one coming. Hahaha

[Knifegash]

He is telling the absolute truth. Seasons 1-2, Dee looks pretty good, very sexy. As the show progresses you clearly see her looking worse and worse. Christ, now she looks like shit, and that's all part of the show! Mac is falling into that same pit. It's the degeneration of beauty that mass media seems oblivious to!

[spscarter]

That Asian woman in the background at 5:00 is gorgeous.

[jbilunes]

@spscarter SARCASM? L00000LLLLL

[spscarter]

@jbilunes

Uh, no? Is my yellow fever that bad? You mean you don't find her attractive?

[jbilunes]

@spscarter he looka like a man *mrs.swan accent*

[spscarter]

@jbilunes

But Asian men look like women...Maybe that actually is a man?

[xXGhilliedxSamuraiXx]

I hope he didn't actually get ultimately fat.

[penguinsoulja96]

"please dont call my son dumpster baby" HAHA

[TheLarryGeez]

pretty sure he's talking about "the office" with the characters getting better looking.

[btbrotherton]

Rob's a genius!

[jlin15]

"you sacrifice flexibilty when you add mass"

[Nick4484]

It's funny watching Mac be smart for a change :D

[ThatSephKid]

he's really smart lol

[johnsonphil85]

its called a dirty bulk bra

[goodtubeboob]

he tacked on a shit load of mass and now he has no flexability that a straight up fact

[aceroxf]

I don't think he is fatter. I think he just bulked up a bit.

[Kwert]

@aceroxf He's definitely fatter - he purposely gained 50 pounds for this season because he thought it would make Mac's character funnier.

[spnwinchester2]

I'm still not sure if he is fat in real life, or hes wearing some sorta suit

[jerrbear411]

He's talking about the office I bet.

[MrTpolich]

ultimately ..

[schangbang69]

the characters on the show are such horrible people tho its awesome

[schangbang69]

who cares if he got fat or not, hes going to be funny as hell anyways haha

[onlyiasip]

@schangbang69 well .. a fat guy is really funny so i care...

[bixboi]

ultimately

[Killerrayzz]

@bixboi dick

[riveraatc]

@bixboi Dammit. I did not hear a word of the interview because I just kept waiting for him to say ultimately. Good Job sir!

[8USMNT17]

@bixboi

I counted 7

[radicalcam]

..maybe he just got fat, and has work it in?

[shabehpersia21]

Goddamnit, why'd he get fat? He was so sexy before :( WTF BITCH??!!

[MsKrooster]

@shabehpersia21 He did it on purpose for season 7!

[shabehpersia21]

@MsKrooster lol i know, but its still dissapointing ahahaha

[PappaDokalis]

@shabehpersia21 someone needs a fucking hug

[shabehpersia21]

@PappaDokalis i know it'll make the show funnier, i just had this thing for mac, so BACK OFF

[abbieonwheels]

Well ultimately,

[onlyiasip]

he looks so much better fat.. skinny is like a child...

[jnapoli07]

He is funny as hell but i wish he would stop saying ultimately.

[jnapoli07]

first
