When Did Glenn Howerton Know 'Always' Was a Hit?

James asks "Always Sunny In Philadelphia" creator and star Glenn Howerton about when he and the gang knew the show was a big hit -now to the point it's hard to go around Philly or pretty much any pub. And Bill Burr shares why he doesn't take playing the drums seriously anymore.

Little do they know that he is the Golden God and his rage knows no bounds.

Bill Burr and Glen Howerton is a weird combo. For some reason these two sitting together broke my brain.

[dylanoneill]

Surely you'd shorten it by calling it "Sunny" like everyone else does

When Did James Corden Know 'The' Was A Hit?

Sunny is the only show where the first episode hooked me in. Also every season is funnier than the last…it doesn’t go down it gets better and better. That’s very hard to find, I really hope they get an award and get the props they deserve. Imo it’s the funniest show currently on air & a very iconic show all round.

I've never heard it called 'Always' before. Everyone shortens it to 'Sunny'.

[AlanVickers]

What would be great is if they could get Bill Burr just to do a small bit on Sunny

[KJ-jepm]

Sunny will never die! Its like Curb, the show is still consistently funny

[Wakeman]

Sunny is not a starter show! It is a finisher show!

[aldoushuxley]

"Always"?
If you have to shorten it to one word, at least call it "sunny"!

[donnytucker]

It's going to be a sad day when the show finally ends. The bloopers are so fun to watch.

[matthewsmith]

Burr would be great on Always Sunny. Bill as Franks estranged son. Could even be a drummer in a band and Frank tries to become their manager. So many funny things they could do there.

[alexthrailkill]

Imagine Bill doing a cameo on Always Sunny and roasting the gang with callbacks to the Philly Incident lmfao

[mlamarana]

Dennis would be so jealous of Glen because he is successful with chiseled features and humble

[rolltide]

Two of my favorite people sitting on the same couch is just awesome. I wish they'd get Bill to do a guest spot on Sunny!!

[chemamehc]

How has Bill not been on It's Always Sunny...

[theresajv]

I feel like you could see Bill trying to think of sitcoms that have ran for longer than 15 seasons.

[trevorz]

Frank aka Danny Devito is a gem in 'Always Sunny in Philadelphia'.

[antoniojones]

Bill Burr is also an icon around the Philadelphia area - but for a completely different set of reasons than Glenn Howerton. Check out his legendary famous/infamous "Philly Rant" video.

Bill Burr and Glen Howerton together? These are two of my favorite guys in the world.
