‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ Will Be Around Until at Least Season 12
Matthias Clamer/FXX
FXX has renewed It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia for another two seasons, meaning the show will soon be “the longest-running live-action comedy in cable history, and one of the longest-running live-action comedies in TV history, period.” Congrats, everybody! Meanwhile, the network has also ordered 10 episodes of a Tracy Morgan series created by It Always Sunny’s Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day, and Glenn Howerton and New Girl writer Luvh Rakhe. The Sunny dudes will ALSO be putting together another pilot and “AT LEAST THREE MORE” scripts for FX. (Emphasis mine. Because that’s insane.)

Carrie — the book, ya movie-watching heathens — turns 40 tomorrow. Why not have Patton Oswalt wax nostalgic about a life of reading Stephen King? “There are a couple of clunkers in there, but you’re talking about so many books, for God’s sake. Most people, they can build their reputation on two or three. This guy has written a small bookstore of his own stuff. That is how hard he has played the shit out of his own game.”
