Dummy Steals Show in 'Always Sunny' Premiere
19 Aug
Summary
- New character Sherman, a ventriloquist dummy, debuted in the season premiere.
- Charlie serenades his dead mother's ashes, creating melodic cringe.
- Dennis and Dee's outrageous behavior towards strangers escalates.
The highly anticipated Season 18 premiere of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia has arrived, featuring a corpse marriage and a darkly comedic tribute to Lynne Marie Stewart. A standout new character, Sherman the Legal Mediation Dummy, has quickly become a fan favorite. Sherman's introduction, particularly through Jack Kelly and Mac, provided immediate comedic gold, even becoming a device for Mac's attempted coming out.
Charlie Day's musical performance, a surprisingly melodic yet cringe-worthy song about his deceased mother's ashes, was a highlight. This song took on a disturbing new life during a scene involving Dee and a corpse, epitomizing the show's unique brand of humor. Dennis and Dee also returned to their familiar pattern of outrageous behavior, displaying extreme arrogance towards strangers, particularly a mortician, in their quest for perceived superiority. The show continues to air new episodes on Monday nights.
