Summary

"Mac Finds His Pride" (November 7, 2018)

Twelve seasons in, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia stopped giving Mac the Smithers treatment and let him be gay, but it's the season thirteen finale we're talking about because it highlights Mac's sexuality without making jokes, at least for the third act. The episode received wide praise, but did it also jeopardize the show's comedic tone in order to make a statement?

Thanks to Dr. Alfred Smith, David Russell and Ally J. Shivka for offering their interpretations of the narrative in the dance sequence!
