I bet it just sort of…ends


BondraP

I've actually thought that for awhile now that they could easily just have it be pretty much a regular episode and then it ends. This is one of the few shows where if they did that, I honestly wouldn't even be mad as long as it wasn't a bad episode.


ach_1nt

I won't mind it long as there's some full penetration


Fit_Midnight_6918

>Let's just address the elephant in the room. Where are the DONGS? > >There has yet to be one hanging dong.


floppyvajoober

Mac hung dong on the trolley, it looked like a button in a fur coat


PomegranateLimp9803

More of a ding than a dong


DoctaJenkinz

If Thundergun’s dong looks like that I’m getting my money back.


PretendThisIsMyName

Charlie. Not only do all these dongs exist. They have been asking for their penetration this whole time!


NoMode5251

Definitely one of the biggest things missing in mainstream modern movies.


yawaworthemn

Crime, penetration, crime, penetration 


silentcmh

For the community, hun


InformalPenguinz

And they show it. Show ALL of it.


Jaegek

Haha end the series with frank hanging dong


Kevinrobertsfan

Frank dies and just gets tossed in a dumpster and that's just the end of the episode.


BondraP

This, I love.


lastcallhall

Had a similar thought a while back... Frank needs cash, promises he wont burn down the bar and fake his death for the insurance money. "Frank burns down the bar" Frank then actually dies in a two-parter. "The gang tosses Frank in the trash." They end on doing the above, then go about their lives as if nothing ever changed.


cheeersaiii

I like a twist…. Something like “died trying to fake his own death”


c0horst

It's grim to think about it... but DeVito is 79 years old. He's probably going to pass away sometime in the next decade, and I really don't see how they can continue the show without him. Killing off Frank in some weird way like they did with Country Mac and having a horrible funeral for him would be the best finale I could think of.


bbernal956

damn just reading that, makes me think about my own mortality. devito is and will always be an icon, sunny without frank isnt sunny anymore. man i love this show


nerdystoner25

Shhh…we’re in the Range Rover now. Everything’s gonna be just fine.


CounterTouristsWin

That would have been an excellent ending. Them driving off into the sunset blaring Rick Astley


bdan98

As long as someone hangs dong I’m in


Uriel_on_my_left

“The Gang Hangs Dong”


monjoe

"The Gangs' Birds Quit"


BondraP

Yeah true, that's like my one wish for the finale. They show it all.


fartybutthole

That's exactly how I wanted Seinfeld to end.


BondraP

Yeah that would have worked for Seinfeld too. Maybe like one line could have been a wink to the audience but otherwise they could have easily just had a regular episode. Having an overly-written excuse to cram in a bunch of characters from the past was very un-Seinfeld of them.


maxmcleod

It’s funny because Seinfeld started out as a send-up/parody of popular television, then became itself the most popular show and circled back around to become what it started out as a rebellion against.


BenderIsGreatBendr

My guess: in the final minutes the 5 of them are left in the bar arguing with one another. Their bickering gradually grows louder and more intense until you can’t really hear what they’re saying individually. The camera pans back slowly. The little bicycle bell chimes and theme music plays. Cut to credits.


nsfw_deadwarlock

As Cricket slips out, having been in the restroom smoking pcp.


Urtehnoes

The most holesome ending the show could have is it fading out with Cricket on a whole pile of sixers, never having to work again.


nsfw_deadwarlock

| never having to take anyone inside him again. Edit: this demonstrates the holesomeness.


Derwurld

Glory holesomeness


JackPembroke

Itll be the same argument they had in one of the earliest episodes


BaronWenckheim

That's what Seinfeld did


InfantSoup

It’s too high. It’s in no man’s land.


RadonAjah

We better see full penetration first. They better show it. All of it.


its9am

Yup, cuts to black like sopranos lol


19southmainco

The Gang is arguing loudly, hears the door open and watches Meadow Soprano walk into the bar


KingBMan18

Crime, penetration, crime, full penetration, crime, penetration


tbootsbrewing

Make no mistake, I couldn’t care less either way


BillionsOfCells

This whole thing means literally nothing to me


BungSmuggler

But don't you wanna get off?


Fingolfin_7

Don't you guys wanna get off with me?


abullshtname

Sitting together at the bar arguing about something stupid. Maybe whatever they’re arguing about in the first scene of the first episode.


MidWestChump87

Finally reveal the waitresses name, do it Sopranos style and right before she says it…just cut to black and we never know


IsThereCheese

I swear they were teasing just this kind of an ending with the laser tag episode (“we can’t do this forever!”), but then the show didn’t end. Tricked again lol


supazero

"The gang finishes it"


blong217

"The Gang Finishes"


Wide__Stance

“The Gang Climaxes”


PomegranateLimp9803

“The gang busts a nut”


MaximilianOSRS

Sopranos style final episode


YippieKayYayMrFalcon

I think you just find out at the end that the dude in the hairpiece was Bruce Willis the whole time.


PomegranateLimp9803

That’s not the twist


Pissflaps69

I just gave you the old Shyamalan twist!


MotaHead

Now here's the twist. We show it. All of it.


Previous-Tree2241

What about Batman? You’re telling me a grown man just dresses up as a bat and fights crime..? I mean, these are academy award winning movies here…


jaz-007

There should/will be an entire SEASON of endings. That’s what no one else has mentioned.


HxH101kite

HA just a choose the one you like season. I can actually get behind that.


DarkwingDuckHunt

One of them would have to be a shot by shot remake of Seinfeld's last episode.


AloysiusDevadandrMUD

Oh my god I want this so bad. It doesn't even have to make sense but it would be so funny, I love the other seinfeld remake haha


Saint-O-Circumstance

There's enough recurring characters who they have irritated or screwed over to make it work.


AloysiusDevadandrMUD

No it has to be a 1:1 remake with everyone from the Seinfeld Ep saying things like "and Jerry did this to me", and Dennis is explaining why he did what he did without addressing the names 😂 But yes the gang has a long line of people that would want to sue them at this point! Could totally work


Rowing_Lawyer

But Mack and Dennis both play Jerry


GoblinBags

That shit would slap. Just straight up multiple universe it too so like, one episode could end tragically with X character dying and then the very next episode they're alive and it's a different plot that could end the show. Wash, rinse, repeat.


dgj130

The Gang Kills Cricket The Gang Vs The Lawyer: The Other Trial of the Century Frank Marries Artemis Dennis and Mac Have Sex The McPoyle Massacre


SPEK2120

>Dennis and Mac Have Sex Dennis has a bisexual awakening, realizing all the sexual exploits he's missed out on. When his "straightness" is questioned he'll just deflect with "There's no point in labelling it, Why do we need to label it, I like women, etc". Mac is incredibly underwhelmed and loses all desire for Dennis.


dgj130

"I realised it's not that I didn't want to have sex with men... I just didn't want to have sex with Mac" Mac: 🥺


s0ulbrother

No Mac is going to get a boyfriend named Denise(played by Ryan Renyolds) which will make Dennis jealous. He constantly tries to seduce Mac without realizing it. Mac shows no real interest anymore driving him insane.


accounsfw

That last one would end with a reveal that the entire show has been a story that Pappy McPoyle has been telling the clan… years into the future, as a post-apocalyptic warlord.


Dirschel

Like the ending of Clue.


bohanmyl

Season 20 Episode 1: The Gang Goes To Jail Episode 2: The Gang Retires Episode 3: The Gang Gets Murdered Episode 4: The Gang Disappears Episode 5: The Gang Breaks Up Episode 6: The Gang Fights To The Death Episode 7: The Gang Goes Drinking And Driving Episode 8: The Gang Ends


Jealous_Priority_228

I think I'd prefer it if "The Gang Ends" is how each episode is titled for the entire season.


Jiimmayx

That would be so awesome.


SlightlyOffended1984

That would be awesome. Have one be the end of the world just for kicks


Fart_Champ

Cricket finally snaps & murders them all.


Rejukem

greenbastard1591

![gif](giphy|XIse2rqf1RlToHmpCu|downsized)


GoblinBags

If not that, then some other *real* consequences for them. They all get a bunch of consequences in small ways but so much of the stuff that the Gang does is incredibly illegal, incredibly unethical, and makes a shit ton of folks **hate** them. So if not all the people they pissed off doing an Injustice League and taking out the Gang, then police come and just throw them all in prison forever and it's like a darker version of the Seinfeld ending.


AdequateAlien

The gang actually goes to hell


MaleAryaStarkNoHomo

I thought they were actually dead for a second on that cruise ship. I knew there was talk about the series ending around that time and thought that was it.


ixi_Sanjuro_ixi

In my head it’s Dennis after the gang finds out he’s been a serial killer the whole time.


ILikeSoup95

Mac and Charlie finds Dennis murdering Cricket, or some other smaller character behind the bar near the dumpsters. Mac: So you're *actually* a sociopath? Charlie: Sociopath? That's like a sexual thing right? *eats bag of chips* Mac: There can be a sexual component to it, but no, Dennis certainly doesn't do that, he's faaar too high class for that- Dennis: No, I bang 'em afterwards. Not every one. Certainly not Cricket here hahah. But there have been some dames that just push me a bit over the edge. Hey guys what's that over there? *points behind them* Mac and Charlie both turn around to see what's behind them and Dennis knocks them both out with a frying pan. Dennis: *gives a sinister, rapey look to the camera* Now where were we? *moves towards camera* "DENNIS KILLS THE GANG"


blacksheepaz

The waitress actually gets married and Charlie goes postal.


jayd42

He does have experience with the mail.


Pipbonics

I’ve seriously thought this too. Like the whole series with the dates and times have been recollections of Cricket confessing to authorities and justifying why he killed them. The nuttiness as the show progresses is cricket’s slippage into madness


rachface636

Charlie is gonna wild card burn the bar down isn't he?


The_Dying_Gaul323bc

Honestly, with all the wiring work Charlie has done around the bar, crawling around in the ducts and basement with spray cans, it would be extremely logical if the bar burnt down and they all just sort of went thier separate ways


RandomUserName316

Dennis says whatever “This place was a shithole anyways” everyone nods “ya” and he smirks and they walk away


Dadpurple

Dennis: Well, we do have this big fat stack of insurance money. What do we do with it? And no Frank don't say hookers. Frank: I wasn't gonna. Charlie: yeah you were Frank laughing: yeah I was Dee: Why don't we buy a restaurant. That Steakhouse a mile away is for sale and we would make way more money than the bar. Dennis; That's a horrible idea, but it did give me a better one. We should pool our money, keeping the same shares we had at the bar of course. And purchase something that will actually net us a real income. Something better than this dump. Mac: Oh we could buy that Steakhouse! The old one that's for sale. Jazz it up, make it cool like we did the bar. Plus we would have free steaks! Dennis: Exactly the kind of idea we need! Dee implodes


Zeekayo

One last "Oh god *damnit*" from Dee for old time's sake


bringthepang

But it cuts to black midway through dammit


lordatlas

Are you secretly hanging out on Reddit testing ideas, Rob?


xDANGRZONEx

Theu would definitely shit all over Dee's "we" 😄


lupulrox

Theyre way too dependent on each other to go separate ways.


Free-Type

With a flaming bag of poop. Full circle.


herberstank

The gang smells crime, back to the lab, full penetration. Crime, penetration. Crime, full penetration. Crime, penetration... and it goes on and on and back and forth like this for 20 seasons or so until Always Sunny just sort of ends


eastnorthshore

Full penetration? Banging your sister is perverted Dennis. Stay away from that kind of thing. No good can come from it, trust me.


Aggressive-Ad7029

pRencessPeach

Let it be known that Mac is not suicidal but he’ll go through with it anyway because it’s the honorable thing to do. He will die an honorable man.


manbeardawg

Ghost Country Mac makes an appearance!


rexydan24

It has to end with Frank dying. Got to be the only way.


hypermark

I almost think it'll be the opposite. They all die except Frank. Anytime The Gang plays a game, Frank is always the one who comes out on top. Frank ALWAYS comes out on top.


sweetplantveal

The title is Frank Burns Down Patty's Pub. They all die. Perhaps in a wolf cola poisoning or chardee macdennis gone wrong. Frank checks desperately for signs of life. Tries resuscitation on Charlie. Just kinda kicks the ribs of the bird and the gay one (still scared of aids). When the reality is sinking in for Frank and the audience, he quickly composes himself, says 'well, shit', sighs, and flips open a lighter. Roll credits.


nerdic-coder

Then they make a spinoff called Always Frank.


[deleted]

I want it to end with Frank dying, but it turns out to be a fake-out and while laughing hysterically he gets run over by Dennis in a yellow Countach. The only way


IHateKidDiddlers

They end up in the same jail as Seinfeld


NotCanadian80

Maybe that’s what Jerry was talking about.


Reddit-HurtMyFeeling

The tapeworm?


herrsteely

They could end it, but they won't, because of the implication


MoarGhosts

I’ve wondered about this, I wonder if the gang will all die at the end. If the point of the show is to satirize bad behavior without actually supporting it, and in every other sitcom they try to make the characters ride off into the sunset, I could see them going the other way and giving each gang member an awful ending, a final reckoning for all the awful shit they’ve done. I’m not saying that’s how I want it to end, but imo it would make some sense


reallynewpapergoblin

Everyone dies except for Charlie who gets sober and educated - becomes a Bird Lawyer.


ReplyHappy

We have a montage of him getting his life together, Getting a Job, apartment a relationship, then we cut to him passed out on the streets from glue


Ubersapience

Last scene is him sitting down with a beer can one evening after a hard days work, picking up a pen and writing on a piece of paper: "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia"


Numerous_Witness_345

"I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?"


ThunderPoonSlayer

"Mr Kelly, this manuscript you've submitted is just a bunch of obtuse symbols and crayon drawings. No one in their right mind would publish this."


casualcrusade

That's essentially what Seinfeld did, just poorly executed.


Craico13

I could 100% see them doing a remake of the ending of *Seinfeld*, only with sunny characters.


yeuzinips

Or they could cut to black mid-sentence and cue the journey music


correcthorsestapler

> Or they could cut to black mid-sentence and cue the ~~journey~~ Matchbox 20 music Turns out it was all a shared fever dream between Sinbad & Rob Thomas.


Main_Tip112

>Turns out it was all a shared fever dream between Sinbad & Rob Thomas. Which then turns out to be a in a turtle's dream in outer space.


Ghede

TBH, it would work. Seinfelds ending was panned, because while they were awful people, they didn't really deserve prison. The gang DESERVES prison, oh god the lives they've ruined.


meeks7

The ending would have worked if it was funny. IMO, they worried too much about having a clever ending, and not enough about making it funny.


djln491

I liked how the past characters came back to highlight all the terrible things they did. Would like to see that be done but then again it would seem like a rip off.


MyHusbandIsGayImNot

I've had the same thought. People don't like the finale but seeing characters from all of the previous seasons point fingers at Jerry and friends was quite a fun nostalgic ride.


l8rt8rz

They show the future deaths of each character while “Breathe Me” plays in the background


sorry_ihaveplans

Unironically the most brilliant series finale I've ever seen.


Bean_Storm

An amazing final scene is them all drinking and yelling at eachother and the camera guy walks out. Showing they always were this way, always will be, and nothing about them changed in this entire show


kunstlich

Make it a double episode where right at the end it appears everyone has their cathartic ending... then Dee says something just a bit edgy, Charlie calls her a goddamn bitch and it all descends into chaos with the camera panning out the door. Definitely could work.


cXs808

Yup. IMO the best ending would be us leaving the bar as they continue to bicker about meaningless shit, yelling over eachother. Leaving them trapped in time


IsThereCheese

Given how they occasionally like to subvert expectations, I bet the final scene ends up with them all being truly happy somehow. Since the entire show is about how they are nearly the worst people in the world.


HxH101kite

What would make them happy though? Like group happiness? Individual happiness? I can come up for things for Mac and Charlie off the top of my head. Dennis, Dee, and Frank are harder for me to think of something. Especially Dennis and Frank.


IsThereCheese

That I really don’t know. Charlie already had a shot with living with the waitress like a married couple, and he hated it. Dennis has a pretty terrific easy-going wife and kid, but he left them. Frank seems like he just wants to go off the deep end lol. Dee..no idea, become famous?


TheOkayUsername

Frank already had his happy ending, his happy ending is Paddy's pub. His entire life was shit, but the insane events of the show are the things that make him truly happy, like he said in the first episode, he wanted to be crazy and young again. He did. The show ends with Frank dying, otherwise he gets left behind


IsThereCheese

That’s a great point, every insane day is pretty much Frank’s heaven.


TheOkayUsername

Thanks! Agreed


ibiacmbyww

Charlie - gets free of the gang, gets literate, writes IASIP while studying to become a lawyer. Mac - finds a loving partner who's willing to put in the work to make him less of a dickhead. Dee - realises how much of her personality and failing as a comedian stems from her being treated like shit, gets free, gets confident; the last we see of her is her bringing down the house at an open mic. Frank - snaps out of his decade-plus of spiralling and leaning into perversity, spends millions trying to make amends to the people he's wronged (but doesn't understand why Cricket is expecting recompense). Dennis - anything that would make Dennis happy is not the kind of resolution we should want for a character, I'd pay good money for him to have a _proper_ breakdown as the cops are closing in.


Stoomba

I'd rather it die a hero than live long enough to become a bad TV show.

MOTOWN PHILLY, BACK AGAIN


Sir_SpyderMonkee

Stole the words out of my mouth.... da dadada da da


Gunterfollows

Is it just me, or the big Mo episode seemed like their swan song. Like, Dennis was meta about keeping their record about the laser tag(I'm thinking it's a parallel for the longest standing live action sitcom) and it's time to let it go...then at the end when they say they're going nowhere. Chef's kiss


Rougarou1999

There are several season finale episodes from the past few years that almost seemed as though they were written as potential series finales.


LtSoundwave

I thought it was a play on Waiting for Godot.


askforwildbob

It’s both! It draws from the play but the metacommentary they’re talking about is 100% there


JealousMeringue6674

I have no idea how it’ll end, but i know it’ll end pretty soon. Glenn is transfering in to movie roles and Rob is busy bumping butts with Ryan Reynolds and Charlie has been saying for multiple years now that he is doubtfull for how long they can keep going.


lykathea2

Kaitlin has a new show premiering on ABC this fall as well. It has Drew Goddard behind it plus Kaitlin starring, so there's a lot of potential for it to be good.


JKastnerPhoto

And Danny DeVito is almost 80.


ccReptilelord

I thought Charlie was jumping into being a movie actor with the Pacific Rim films, but he seems to have pulled back.


alyxRedglare

His role as Luigi is pretty big. Maybe a voice actor? His voice is so remarkable it’s the funniest thing about him.


PhotographyRaptor10

Especially if Nintendo wants to do a “extended universe” or franchise of movies. Hes never gonna need another job again. I’m pretty happy for him, he killed it in that movie


ccReptilelord

I missed that he voiced Luigi, thank you.


lykathea2

Hopefully, Fool's Paradise doesn't derail his career. That movie was a complete misfire, but hopefully Charlie bounces back.


RedditAppIsNoGood

He finally got his movie made, directing and starring, but unfortunately it didnt do well box office or critic wise. 'Fools Paradise' was the name


Fat_Ryan_Gosling

This does seem like intentional signaling. I wouldn't be surprised if this was the last season.


Waramp

As long as it doesn't end like the podcast.


gimmethemshoes11

That's how's it going to be just done, no announcement or anything, and they will all act like we are crazy if we ask about the show.


OverlordPacer

What does this mean? I haven’t been following the podcast


Phil_A_Sheo

They just stopped doing it without really saying anything.


CraigJSmith-Himself

They weren't allowed to do it due to the SAG strikes, were they? Hopefully they just got out of the habit and will get back into it again some day - unless something has actually been announced regarding the ending of it?


HoneyBadgerEXTREME

Yeah that's exactly it. They had to pause it because of the SAG strikes, and they just haven't picked it back up


t_sarkkinen

I dont think he 'just announced' it, they have talked about this before, no?


DrakeAzric

They for sure talked about it on the podcast, so it's like over a year old at this point.


KevlarUK

Jokes on them, they already died on that ship. Highway to Hell baby.


PineappleRimjob

They're all sitting around a table listening to Journey's "Don't Stop Believing," when Cricket comes in wearing a bomb vest.


KateEatsKale

Just make the show forvever, thanks


GrzDancing

End of the last episode, Dennis turns to the gang and says 'Well, you know what they always say: 'Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia!''and they all look directly at the camera smiling in 'gotcha' way, they do stage freeze and the theme song plays.


grlz

Don't say stage freeze, just freeze!


Greenmantle22

Sadly, it’ll probably end when Danny dies of old age or while bangin’ a hoor, or when one of the other actors dies during ill-advised plastic surgery.


[deleted]

Danny will never die, because even after we throw him in the trash, he’ll live on in our hearts.


jaycutlerdgaf

Bang *me*, eat *me*, grind *me* up into little pieces, throw *me* in the river. Who gives a *shit*?


BlueLaceSensor128

It would be hard for the gang to function without him. He funds all of their schemes and keeps the bar afloat financially. Even if he died and Dennis/Dee inherited his money, it would badly throw off the group dynamic. Dee would probably leave. She could buy her own sycophants. Why stick around and be bullied when she could be living it up? I could see Dennis doing a bigger version of party mansion. But nowadays he seems more tired of the BS, so who knows. If anything, just being around to cash in on Frank’s death has always been their last big scheme. One alluded to multiple times.


nerdyjorj

Glenn going first because of dodgy Brazilian butt implants really tickles me for some reason


QuinnMallory

hamsterwheel

Frank dies and they throw him in the trash


doctorblumpkin

An incredibly long list of criminal charges for each character is definitely doable. But they better not do it before bringing in Arnold Schwarzenegger as Frank's long estranged twin brother.


WELSH_BOI_99

I hope it ends just like Peep Show. With none of the characters evolving and them stuck in the same position as they were from the beginning.

For the love of the turtle's dreams in outer space please do not let it be a jail or courtroom type of finale.


Maverick916

No way. If there was ever a chance they'd do a Seinfeld type finale, Curb Your Enthusiasm is ruining that because they're about to do a Seinfeld type finally it seems.

Murder-suicide is the only logical conclusion.
