The gang causes more trouble for Abbott Elementary in new It's Always Sunny promo

As if poor Janine doesn’t have enough to deal with already, the It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia gang is back to steal brownies and start boy bands at the school she’s just trying to keep afloat. That’s right—part two of this year’s surprisingly excellent Abbott Elementary–Always Sunny crossover is almost here, and the gang is up to their usual antics. (Did we expect anything less?) This episode will be more in the style of the latter series, so expect some extra inappropriate hijinks. Janine actually loses it and punches a locker in the episode’s newly released teaser, so it’s safe to say that the Abbott crew won’t be getting post-work drinks at Paddy’s Pub any time soon.

It’s Always Sunny celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, but the gang is still finding new ways to push the boundaries of true human depravity. This season, for example, has been dubbed “The Gang Embraces The Corporate Era: The story of how greed and the New American Dream have consumed Paddy’s Pub.” It also comes with a rather verbose description:

Seventeen seasons on, Ronald “Mac” MacDonald (Rob McElhenney), Charlie Kelly (Charlie Day), Dennis Reynolds (Glenn Howerton), Dee Reynolds (Kaitlin Olson), and Frank Reynolds (Danny DeVito) return to shamelessly shed their “niche” label for grander aspirations.

They’ll exploit cross-network promotion to increase market share; they’ll scapegoat one of their own to avoid a PR backlash; they’ll risk everything for a handshake with the Saudis; they’ll bend the laws with side hustles to pad their pockets; and they’ll change everything about themselves to appeal to a broader audience.

And sure, like any corporate goon, the Gang craves money and parasitic social privileges. That’s been plain since 2005. But they’re also human beings. They crave love.. respect… conditional freedom… constant adulation… histrionic amounts of attention… non-stop gratification… and unfiltered, slaphappy eroticism.

In Season 17, they’ll chase down them all.

And the money. Obviously, the money. They don’t want to spend the rest of their lives working like dogs.
