He wasn't even in the design of the original show, but he saw it and loved it so much they wrote him in as the brother/sister's rich amoral dad. It really is a great character. And Always Sunny is a great show, . . it's kind of Seinfeld with no filter on weed/vodka.

Won't even give you the story behind these gifs. Just a taste of what's to be beheld.

Spoiler!

Today's my birthday and to celebrate here's a gif of Frank crawling out of a couch.

I've always felt I should watch more of sunny but between porn, football, porn, golf, porn, porn, and porn, seems I never have time.

The nice thing is, you'll probably know right away if you like it or not. It's one of the few comedies that set it's tone right out of the gate.
The stories became more convoluted, the jokes become more intricate and nuanced over time, and certainly some episodes are highlights while some are not as great. But what you see right off is the spirit of the show.
OTOH, if you like the humor. It's not like you get a season or two in and realize 'well, they've done all they can do with this premise' It's as fresh and inventive today as ever. Some of the funniest moments ever are in the last season or two as well.

Long story short, I recognize it's not for everyone. But if you catch a little of it and think it is for you, there's a treasure trove of quality content waiting.
