Season 17? It’s crazy to think It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia has been around for seventeen seasons and is still going strong. FX just released the official trailer for the upcoming season, and it teases a huge surprise crossover. Frank is going to be on The Golden Bachelor!
Season 17 is set to premiere on FXX on July 9, 2025 at 9pm ET/PT with the release of the first two episodes. New episodes air on Wednesdays.
“Seventeen seasons on, Ronald ‘Mac’ MacDonald (Rob Mac), 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,” reads FX’s synopsis. “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.”
Executive producers include Rob Mac (McElhenney’s new preferred last name), Charlie Day, Glenn Howerton, Michael Rotenberg, Nicholas Frenkel, Dave Chernin, John Chernin, Rob Rosell, David Hornsby, Nina Pedrad, and Victor Hsu.
