The creators of this show have come back to roots. The writers of the earlier seasons and them going back to old episodes through their podcast made this episode feel right. It feels like classic Sunny we all love.

I only laughed twice at the respective pay-off of the plot lines in the episode. Charlie's business gag pay-off was the best of them all. As always the show weaponizes the status quo in an interesting way.

I think part of why this episode succeeds and why I feel the rest of this season will is that the jokes aren't stale anymore. I felt that in the last few seasons the jokes got far too repetitive turning the show into gags that are repeated alongside a couple new jokes. But here I feel the jokes are all new, great, and unpredictable.

One thing I've come to love on more recent Sunny episodes are the random and shocking emotional moments which is probably my favorite part of the show. I hope this season still keeps that gravitas in at least one moment.

Overall a nice return to formula tackling a recent issue in a fun way 8.5/10.

As for the dissapointed reviewers, Sunny has been going for a long time now and these guys are all into their late 40s. Ofcourse it ain't as sharp and quick witted as their hayday when they were in their 30s. You can't compare all the episodes to their best. Not even mentioning the changing norms in our society.

Having said that, i think it's really impressive what they manage to put out after going for 16 seasons. I thought the writing and concept for this episode was pretty funny and clever. Definitely very enjoyable. I look forward to the rest of the season and to me it seems they are still having fun with it!

This episode was a throwback to classic Sunny.

They took a pertinent real world issue and gave it the IASIP treatment. But they also kept it simple. No wacky too-over-the-top shenanigans; no ridiculous characters; no absurd, unbelievable, unrealistic events. Just good character dynamics/ interaction.

To be brutally objective, it probably wasn't as excellent as the best seasons of IASIP. But that is a pretty high standard to achieve. And overall it was a solid episode that is leaps and bounds better than the dross that the recent seasons have served up.

If the rest of the season is this good this could be an IASIP revival!

The sixteenth season starts off with a pretty hilarious start. I considered mac to be the weakest link, he always feels like he's trying a little to hard to be funny but don't mistake that for him being not funny even if he tries to hard I still enjoy macs character , he made me laugh the whole time. The plot gets buried in the humor of the show and that's why I love sunny, I think it was a great season opener for any show idc about there age this show can go against any show even this season I can tell just from this episode that this season will be another banger. It's like saying lebron can't go another 4 years , it's in there blood.

It's seems they haven't time for their show anymore. Obviously comes down to other priorities days. We have all enjoyed them in various other stuff. I guess now we see the cost. This series is clearly strung together with the quickest effort and "sure it'll do" attitude, whilst playing it save in the no fun era. It seems like they are fulfilling a contract and that's it, no joke, no fun, bore by numbers. So sad to see the greateat of comedy lose their lust for a show that broke the mould. They'll regret this in the long run. You'll never get this show back and never do anything better. All the best to the cast. They'll go down in history for amazing comedy and hopefully we don't remember how they got too big for their show.

Don't know what happened here but it just didn't feel natural or well executed at all. Doesn't even make sense and is not funny one bit. I think last seasons ending scene wouldn't been a good end. Judging from this episode. I'm on episode 2 as well and it's not any better. It is better than this but it's still not good. Also the seasons are very short as well so there's no excuse for bad writing or anything. The most we get per season is 10 episodes and with them being short as well they should be very good quality. Well executed and entertaining but this isn't. You can't hide behind fillers and a few bad episodes when this season is 8 episodes as well and they're awful.

Dee gluing herself to the walls and doors the entire episode for no good reason. The weird plot with Mac and the nuts. It seemed so off and just random. It wasn't even funny either. It was just strange. The only interesting thing was the extra room and bathroom but they didn't even use that. It wasn't a surprise as we obviously knew that before but it could've been good episode if they actually focused on that and actually made it about that but instead they wrapped it up quickly with Charlie wanting it bordered back up in exchange Frank got some stale cakes and Dee gets her apartment back. We didn't even get that many scenes in it. What a bad use of the most interesting thing in this episode. I thought at least Dee or someone could've moved in or they did something useful with it at least but nothing. It could've been entertaining but instead it's forgettable.

The episode is very slow, very few things happen to be an episode of Always Sunny,it starts with a good idea about inflation, but in the end it does not seemed to be executed, it's very contrived and simple.

I consider myslef to be a hardcore fan of the show, and I've been following them and their projects last few months, I would say they have dedicated less time to this season after seeing this episode, and the lenght of the season.

I'm hoping it's going to be a fluke start and it will get better, it's hardly the first bad episode of the show but man.....

Pretty slow, the dialogues, the movement, the action, if feels like they are just readinga paper most of the time, uninspired.
