‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ Creator Proved Jerry Seinfeld’s Outrageous Claim Wrong With a Single Tweet
The FX comedy It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia has made a mark in the sitcom space by its penchant for going against all established tropes. The ensemble comedy goes dark in every episode, and every time one hopes that the makers wouldn’t go to a darker space, they double down and go to a space that feels completely off-limits.
Hence, it was surprising for Iasip creator Rob McElhenney when other sitcom creators and actors such as Jerry Seinfeld crib about ‘wokeness’ ruining comedy. The Seinfeld star grieved about political correctness affecting comedy, citing a storyline from his own show that he claimed would not be allowed to air today, before McElhenney called him out.
