this was the first macdennis edit I ever made and it’s gotten muted 4x on tiktok so here u go tumblr 💓
the greatest will-they-won't-they in television sitcom history. i guess.
it’s 5% funny that mac is named ronald mcdonald and 95% makes me want to cry
best thing abt the sunny gang is that theyre all in their late 40s but only like two of them have cars on a good day & im pretty sure only one of them has a laptop & half of them r divorced & the only people they interact with on a regular basis r also people theyve known since high school & none of those people even fw them. its helping me set reasonable expectations for the future
sorry am I interrupting something here…?
lately i've been thinking "what if there was a show called hate on the spectrum and it's just about a bunch of autistic people who hate each other" and then i remembered it's always sunny in philadelphia exists
the concept of dennis falling too early and mac falling too late and them just missing each other as dennis got sick of their codependency while mac finally came out of the closet for good ..
it is so sickening to think about mac's desperation to be loved and how the neediness that radiates from him is ultimately what inhibits him from forming healthy relationships.. the gang is so tired of him constantly questioning his self-worth ("you guys like me, right?") that they've given up on giving him any attention whatsoever ("it's really a cry for [...] attention, [...] ignore those" / "treat it like a baby / "we don't like you either way"). he needs validation but seeks it in a manner that is so off-putting that nobody wants him around. he writers letters to chase utley. he visits his mom and dad, even though they never want to see him. he threatens suicide as a cry for help and is encouraged to follow through. self-worth is in the body, so why doesn't anyone care that he's been working out? he smothers his dog with affection but can't even get it to stay.
rob smiling ear to ear as glenn is getting progressively more mad… oh how I miss these old men and their bickering
i am so obsessed with the interiority of sunny characters in a way that the creators definitely did not intend
i have all of this going on with school and work and family. and on top of that. I have to worry about Dennis Reynolds all the time
