Sunny Returns With All New Episode Wednesday Night - "The Gang Goes to a Waterpark"

LOS ANGELES, January 9, 2017 - It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia returned in a big way, delivering the most-watched original telecast in FXX history with its Season 12 premiere. On a Live+3 basis, the season premiere (January 4, 10-10:32 PM) was the network's highest-rated original telecast in Adults 18-49, Adults 25-54 and Total Viewers. On the night of its premiere the telecast also ranked among the Top 5 basic cable programs among Adults 18-34 (#2) and Adults 18-49 (#5).

Sunny returns with an all new episode Wednesday night at 10 PM ET/PT - "The Gang Goes to a Waterpark." The gang takes a trip to a local waterpark, ripe with personal agendas and ulterior motives. Dennis feeds off his mantra of "the park provides" and takes on a protégé. Frank and Charlie are determined to ride every ride by any means necessary and Mac and Dee get stuck in a tube slide for most of the day. Written by Eric Ledgin; Directed by Matt Shakman.

With Season 12, The Gang returns to Paddy's Pub with Mac (Rob McElhenney), Dennis (Glenn Howerton), Charlie (Charlie Day), Dee (Kaitlin Olson) and Frank (Danny DeVito). This season, the gang goes to a waterpark, deals with a Wolf Cola PR nightmare, and actually spends a whole day tending bar!
