Born in Wrexham, Wrexham fan all my life.
I'll just be walking down the street with my dog and just spontaneously laugh out loud when this whole situation pops into my head.
Its completely bonkers.
People have something to look forward to on weekends, the town is buzzing.
Our saviours

How wild is it that all of this was made possible because Ryan Reynolds was so blown away by Mac's dance for his dad.
We all were, Ryan.

[trevorlahey]

Ryan should be in an episode of Its Always Sunny as Canadian Mac.

This bromance warms my heart. They belong together. My 2 fav dudes. And Robs dance scene was incredible. Absolutely beautiful scene.

I love that Ryan is wearing his kids bracelets. He's so freaking awesome.

[CCR]

Conflict Resolution: Why can't we just give everyone a ball? - Most Canadian thing ever said. Love Ryan Reynolds!

[papa.mike]

Ryan is always hilarious right off the top of his head. A real natural.

If they did a late night show together every night I would watch.

[jonnysupreme]

As an English, Manchester united fan for 36 years, I now have a 'second' team that I support and follow Wrexham!
All because of these two legends! A true underdog story

[Ignasg_]

Now I need to see a rated R comedy with these two.They are so hilarious together.

[patrickscannell]

Ryan is right: Rob is such a good host, he honestly does it better than many other late night hosts. He honestly should do this full time.

[jacklowther]

The dance mac does to come out to his father is undoubtedly the most beautiful moment on television

[Boomer_Johnson]

I agree, that dance was the most beautiful and moving moments in TV history. Right up there with when Charlie was crying over his dad's body in the rain.

[BlackAesop]

I love seeing them together on the big stage! 2 of my favorites! Rob killed his hosting gig!

[moraggilad]

OMG THANK YOU RYAN REYNOLDS!! That dance sequence was one of the best moments on television I've ever seen!! And the 13 season lead up to it was absolutely perfection!! I'm glad someone else loved it as much as I did because I show it to everyone!

[MiaMcKim]

The after-gag reactions of both of them were just SO SPOT ON!! They went from reality to acting SEAMLESSLY 🤣🤣🤣

[OzymandiasWasRight]

I'm still wondering how that dance sequence didn't get more attention. It was absolutely stunning.

[jakrabbit]

The reactions after the commercial were just comedy gold! 🤣🤣🤣

[bernlin]

Their comic sensibilities are awfully similar, and yet I never could have seen this coming, what a delightful surprise!

" you have a 6' 2'' face though " lmao love him
