Philadelphia on Fox

That's not the Tom Hanks film, that's It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, the F/X sitcom. The little-seen show will be running on Fox three consecutive weeks after the Family Guy, starting June 11th.

Philadelphia is sort of a little series that could... F/X picked it up after it's writer/creator/stars made a pilot with their own money and a digicam, and it ran moderately succesfully on the station last year. Hopefully this is a sign that F/X will be supporting the show more, because it's pretty dang good. It's a brighter version of the standard "rag-tag bunch of 20-something pals" sitcom, with some dark subject matter and some real chemistry in the cast. After I watched it, I felt like watching it again (and did), which is pretty rare for me when it comes to TV.

Hopefully I'll get a couple of the guys behind it on the show, I've been talking to F/X about it for a million bajillion years. This one's a sign-and-follow.
