Kaitlin Olson Lists ‘It’s Always Sunny’s Five Tamest Episodes for ‘Abbott Elementary’ Fans

by

The group from “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” are planning to visit a place they really shouldn’t set foot in – a school – for their latest crossover event with “Abbott Elementary“. The special episode, titled “IASIP meets Abbott Elementary“, started airing earlier this week (January 8). In the show, Charlie (Charlie Day), Mac (Rob McElhenney), Dennis (Glenn Howerton), Dee (Kaitlin Olson), and Frank (Danny DeVito) are taking on roles as teaching assistants at the school from the popular ABC sitcom “Abbott Elementary”. Fans of “IASIP” only need to catch up on three seasons of “Abbott Elementary”, but fans of “Abbott Elementary” have a lot more ground to cover with 16 seasons of “IASIP”. However, if they follow Kaitlin Olson’s “tamed” guide to the show, they can get a taste of it without diving in too deep.

Hey there! Are you an avid Abbott Elementary fan eager for the crossover but haven’t watched Sunny yet and want to get started? Well, here’s a little guide from me! First off, I recommend steering clear of certain episodes as a newbie. Here’s why:

Excellent! However, I recommend proceeding cautiously since it’s not commonly aired on network television for a particular reason. If you’re considering watching it with older children or your grandmother, I suggest starting with some more tamed versions first as they are equally funny but less explicit than others. (Please avoid showing ‘The Nightman Cometh’ to your grandmother).

Olson suggested these five episodes from the series “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” as a good starting point for new viewers. To be fair, she chose episodes that are slightly less intense or controversial, often referred to as the “tamer episodes.” Here are her picks:

1. “The Gang Hits the Road” (Season 5, Episode 2)
2. “The Gang Buys a Boat” (Season 6, Episode 3)
3. “Sweet Dee Gets Audited” (Season 7, Episode 4)
4. “Charlie Work” (Season 10, Episode 4)
5. “The Gang Goes on Family Night” (Season 10, Episode 8)

Kaitlin Olson’s List Is Great for Any New ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ Fan

The five chosen episodes aren’t just for fans of Abbott Elementary, because they showcase some of the series’ best moments. “Charlie Work,” for instance, is a highly praised episode, boasting an exceptional 10-minute uninterrupted sequence. However, it’s important to mention that while Olson’s list is relatively mild, it’s still not suitable for all audiences. In the episode “The Gang Buys a Boat,” Dennis gives a speech that contains mature content, as he explains his manipulative and questionable approach to picking up women on a boat — it mainly revolves around “the suggestion.

The initial installment of the “Abbott Elementary”/”It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” crossover premiered on January 8. This was the start of a two-episode event, and it marks the fourth season for “Abbott Elementary.” The second episode will air on January 15. Previous episodes of “Abbott Elementary” can be found streaming on Max. Similarly, old episodes of “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” are available to stream on Hulu.
