Danny DeVito Teases Major 'Always Sunny' Changes

It sounds like things might get cranked up in the new season of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia."

"Always Sunny" has been one of the best comedies on TV since it premiered all the way back in 2005. It's hard to believe it's already been on television for nearly two decades.

Time sure does fly. Unfortunately, there's no doubt the show doesn't throw the same kind of heat over the past few years that it did in its prime.

After all, it's hard to stay elite for almost 20 years. However, it sounds like Danny DeVito and the rest of the cast plan on getting back to their old ways.

"Always Sunny" star Danny DeVito teases update on new season.

Danny DeVito spoke with Deadline earlier in the week, and he had one simple message he wanted to get across:

The 17th season of the show plans on really pushing the limits - something we haven't seen much of lately.

It does seem like there's a slight chance he's being sarcastic. I certainly hope that's not the case. The last few seasons of "Always Sunny" - while funny - are certainly nothing to write home about compared to the older seasons.

The older seasons were outrageous, and nothing was off-limits. This show has made fun of race relations, abortion, gun control and any other super controversial topic you can think of. They even once had an entire episode dedicated to Israel/Middle Eastern relations.

It's not only laugh-out-loud funny, but the subtle humor you pick up after rewatching a few times is elite.
