Papa’s Basement 12-12-09-Tiger’s Trollops and John Dated a Tramp
Jaimee Grubbs, Rachel Uchitel, Joslyn James…the list of Tiger Wood’s skanks keeps growing and, along with it, my urge to punch him in the trachea for having more sex in […]
Anyone who’s been watching “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” for the past few months has been bombarded with ads for A Very Sunny Christmas during each and every one of the show’s commercial breaks. For those of you who watch the show but aren’t really sure what the hell AVSC is, it’s simply a double-length episode that was made for DVD, which allows the gang to include even saucier language and (God help us) nudity. So the question is, should you run out and cough up the 20 shekels for it?
The plot explores the usual Always Sunny territory, which is fine by me: Everyone in the gang does their best to bury the demons of Christmas past through a variety of ill-fated attempts that ultimately leave them feeling more hollow than before. AVSC‘s crescendo arrives with Charlie’s encounter with a mall Santa. Again, I’m not going to give away anything other than the scene revolves around massive quantities of a word that FX has yet to allow on its airwaves. There’s also a fun appearance by David Huddleston, aka “The Other Lebowski” which is a nice bonus for those of you as gaytarded for that movie as I am.
So, at the end of the day, is A Very Sunny Christmas worth purchasing? Well, it’s almost 2010, and no one purchases media anymore. Going to the store to buy a disc sounds about as timely as raw-dogging a girl in the back of a Pinto to an eight-track of Led Zeppelin IV. That said, you can’t gift wrap an illegal download, so if you’re a fan of “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” pull a classic John Papageorgiou maneuver and pick up a copy for someone you know you’ll be spending Christmas with, insist on borrowing the disc the instant they open it and never, ever return it. Happy holidays!
Click here to watch A Very Sunny Christmas online via Amazon. Plus it’ll make me like $0.50 if you do, which, by writer’s standards, is a small fortune.
