DOCTOR REACTS TO IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA | Psychiatry Doc Analyzes The Gang Gets Analyzed

[@rexxavier6807]

"Dennis is probably a psychopath." How dare you criticise the GOLDEN GOD!!!

[@Ajonr]

Probably?

[@jgreenbaum7609]

He's a five star man!

[@adarsh5647]

Lol

[@ofallmyintention9496]

I know....All he wants to do is fashion Dee's skin into a piece of high-end luggage.

[@biscuit2193]

He hasn't even peaked yet!!

[@charliehenderson2947]

I was giggling at almost every clip but when he lost it to Frank “she was always smiling. She had no lips” I absolutely died laughing

[@JLynnEchelon]

It's the way Danny DeVito delivers the line. I doubt I would have laughed the same way if someone else had said it.

[@paulmd2010]

But her mouth was still very much in play.

[@rsand2009]

9:25 we all are 😂😂

[@theb.s.d.4707]

The sad thing is the state schools he is describing were very real

[@rags-t-richards]

Frank: this skull is Fort Knox Also Frank: cracks and starts sobbing in under 30 seconds

[@Joe_Parmesan]

All based on one question from the doctor lol

[@522op41]

In his defense, she did unzip him.

[@stephenphilip5294]

That’s the part of this episode that always made me die laughing

[@jacobballance117]

WITH A PLASTIC BAG FOR A HELMET!!!!!!

[@dennisbudimovic6764]

where do i find this lithium study from min 1 If i want to impress my Professor with it i need proof or he will disembowel me

[@rachellewis5210]

Personally I see the end where the therapist says fuck it and tells Dee to do the dishes as the quickest way to insure she never sees any of these people ever again. Considering Dee was her only actual patient and we all know Dee never stepped foot back in that office ever again after that decision.

[@DavidRamirez-se2yt]

She might jabe made the right decision.

[@Sorakeyblademaster37]

Yep that's how I see it too. Any normal therapist is in WAY over their head with the Gang.

[@armpit_farts7327]

I gotta disagree, A. She should definitely remain professional and just tell them she is ending treatment with them, if it gets further than you get some higher powers involved(restraining order..etc). But also B. Dee is the only one who hates her at the end. THe gang goes back to people that they DONT like (the lawyer, uncle jack, the Mcpoyles) for help on certain matters, the rest of the gang complimented her for being a good therapist. I think it was the wrong way to go about it.

[@NoelleMar]

I thought that wasn’t the point though-yes she is getting them out of her hair, but it’s not being a “good therapist.” Don’t get me wrong, in terms of safety or whatever I very much understand her reaction lol.

[@Ocrilat]

The silent start thing...actually, the actress almost broke out laughing when Danny DeVito started spitting out the shells., and she was trying to compose herself.

[@hapadyamatt3731]

Dee’s part where she devolves into simply repeating “TELL ME I’M GOOD” also gets me in this episode

[@mirixf]

"aw bless him, he put the willy pen in his mouth" lmaoo 💀💀💀

[@tannercollins9863]

So good

[@Big___Gym7]

that was the joke that got me to subscribe lmao

[@after9bars]

the way i laughed out at this

[@HermesGirl]

Burst out laughing at that. Love it.

[@friendlyneigborhoodbean]

Sometimes I'll be in a serious situation and that quote just pops into my head

[@timwhite5562]

You left the best part out; when Frank revealed that Dennis and Dee were actually originally triplets. "We were going to call him Donny, he would have been the good one. But Dennis and Deandre DEVOURED him." That's why at the end of this when Charlie was choking Dennis and Frank was encouraging him "do it Charlie! Kill him.. Kill him; get him for Donny!"

[@MrMongoose221]

You say revealed but Frank definitely just made it up lol

[@corsojames]

​@@MrMongoose221 it's pretty common. If a twin or triplet dies in the womb, the other fetuses absorb their tissue, or "eat" them. Donny was a miscarriage, so Dennis and Dee absorbed him

[@classarank7youtubeherokeyb63]

@@corsojames It's pretty common in the case of triplets but triplets themselves are extremely rare. Seems a lot more likely that frank was making shit up because he already made shit up about the nuthouse.

[@kitpalmer1583]

​@@classarank7youtubeherokeyb63 it's common enough in twins that it's referred to as vanishing twin syndrome. I think you're reaching with the "he's lying" theory, generally they're not so subtle with gags like that.

[@mschrisfrank2420]

I always liked that my therapist didn’t do the silent start. We always started with her asking, “What’s one good thing that happened this week?” I was seeing her for anxiety primarily and knowing that question was coming helped me notice good things happening.

[@Thrashman138]

This is lovely.

[@Kelly-uw1xr]

Mine starts by asking me how I’m doing then she asks “and how were you doing during the week?”

[@stephenpmurphy591]

Whenever my older brother begins bragging about all his lovely material possession our mum says. How nice for you. Whooosh He never gets it. My wife loves it. He's rich but an eeject.

[@thallesregis]

"I'm going to hell for laughing at that." Yes, that is the reaction of everyone that watches Always Sunny in Philadelphia in a nutshell.

[@julychee23]

“Bless him he put the willy pen in his mouth” Season 13 Mac: 👀

[@nthgth]

I refuse to be the one to make the like count move from 69. But I like it in spirit.

[@stephenfrank2397]

I love how he says, 'dennis, probably a psychopath' haha. 110% psychopath

[@JaredJonesAZ]

"I've got beef with you." "Excuse me?" "I. AM. MAD. AT. YOU."

[@georgeprchal3924]

There's the one where Dennis threatens to skin Dee.

[@thomasb7347]

Did he say it or....imply it?

[@DivaInTheWoods]

Thats "Psycho Pete Returns" and that one is a treasure trove of psychology issues. I love Frank's flashbacks at the "nitwit" school of the frog kid!

[@Wertsir]

@@thomasb7347 He said he’d make her into a set of skin luggage, he could even add it to his collection.

[@noctisocculta4820]

"You didn't consider the smell, you bitch!"

[@ganii1804]

you don't need an expert to tell that dennis was a fucking psycho in that scene

[@DivaInTheWoods]

I think "The Gang Broke Dee" would be an excellent one to react to. The actions and REactions by each of them is very telling of who they really are.

[@ValSalva1337]

You can’t go wrong with this show. Great dialogue, satire, acting, everything. Consistently as well, it’s not just a few episodes. Thank you for your analysis. Cheers

[@nickparton5663]

"But her mouth was still very much in play" - that was the line that killed me

[@lukerussell3782]

Ugh, you’ve unzipped me.

[@timyarber9936]

"because she had no lips" had me cackling. I completely forgot about that line

[@christofferjenzen78]

Lol....but her mouth was still very much in play.

[@hungoverjesus1891]

'I'm going to hell for laughing at that' is the IASIP fandom Motto 😂-

[@billybrown1102]

"Mac and Dennis Move to the Suburbs" would definetaly be a funny and interesting one to unpack

[@sbraypaynt]

"You watch always sunny because you find it funny, I watch it because it's a fantastic study and representation of undiagnosed and untreated mental illness. We are not the same"

[@MajesticSkywhale]

I say "Well first of all through God all things are possible, so jot that down" several times a week

[@nf4866]

I tell people I don't have donkey brains on a regular basis. Hopefully that's not the behavior of a donkey brained man.

[@royce6485]

I love psychologically analyzing the Gang. This ep was a long time coming. If anyone likes this, LegalEagle covers the Sunny legal cases “Reynolds v Reynolds” and “The Ponderosa McPoyle Wedding” from a legal perspective.

[@williammanning5066]

He also did "hero or hate crime"

[@sorormimm493]

I love how all my fave YTers work in tandem like this. Such a great show with such great analyses!

[@visassess8607]

I love that Frank line so much "I had my first kiss there, it was terrible. She was always smiling that's because she had no lips but her mouth was very much still in play" lmao

[@jailcatjones3250]

When Frank breaks you see all the stages of grief but comical, what a masterful performance from my man Danny devito.

[@jesseross639]

Dennis has always been by far my favorite character because of the complexity of his personality even if he is ultimately a horrible person he is portrayed so well that he is so fascinating.

[@baturalpdurmaz9272]

He is a really good example for what a real narcissist looks like

[@sorormimm493]

This right here! Dennis is a walking DSM but he’s a great character to watch!

[@tkov7522]

The delivery of the "because she had no lips" line is just perfect. Always cracks me up every time I watch it haha

[@etankcam5406]

I love your reactions! I like how you don't spend the entire episode trying to debunk things. You seem to appreciate the humour. The way you provide insight and share your opinion is not overwhelming, which makes these videos educational, but still very entertaining. PLEASE DO MORE SUNNY :)

[@Howdidyouknow04]

This might not work, but maybe the episode Hero or Hate Crime or the episode the gang gives frank an intervention.

[@cristhianzerimar]

@Rob Blowman Yes!!

[@braddishv3146]

Oh yeah, the intervention episode would be great from a Doctor's perspective! haha

[@morgannield5996]

The Gang Gives Frank An Intervention is one of my favorite episodes ever!

[@Bokmoh]

Hero or Hate crime is a perfect one actually

[@Bokmoh]

@@morgannield5996 and yes, intervention ep is also arguably my fav 😂

[@robertbell81697]

That’s so funny how you caught Dennis within his first line to the psychiatrist, if you watch all of the show you can totally tell that he is batshit crazy, totally narcissistic and definitely a psychopath and in theory a serial killer. If you see the episode where it shows his “Tools” that he has in his trunk. BRAVO 👏

[@eternalapostle851]

“It’s fetish shit! I like to bind, I like beeee bound!”

[@robertbell81697]

@Unavailable love it

[@DjurslandsEfterskole]

@Unavailable Uhm. And, y'know, the fact that he's a rapist and reguraly engage in sexual assault

[@zachflag6506]

“He’s put the willy pen in his mouth!” -actual psychiatrist, 2021

[@rachellewis5210]

God you’re enabling my It’s Always Sunny addiction I hope you’re happy. At least here I can learn while I watch the gang get into typically immoral shenanigans.

[@matths226]

Thank the algorithm for uncovering this hidden gem of a channel :D love the vids hope to see it grow!

[@DoctorElliottCarthy]

Thanks so much. Me too!

[@aurthurpendragon1015]

Same here. I watch Doctor Mike regularly, pretty sure that's why this channel got recommended to me.

[@Dragonflyfairy789]

When I use to self harm, it helped me to feel physical pain instead of emotional pain. I always thought that was a main reason for people who had depression and anxiety. Everyone is different though.

[@angrycrab5501]

One of my favorite Dennis scenes is when Dennis threatens to turn Dee into skin luggage to add to his collection

[@matthewgallaway3675]

He has a collection of skin luggage?

[@AverageDrafter]

This episode is the single most instructive and useful work of art I've ever experienced. It is a summation of a series worth of terrible but common human behavior, wrapped up in a bow, and beaten over your head - DON'T BE THIS.

[@wiggl3s_821]

I absolutely always cave at "She was always smiling... that's because she had no lips." Frank in that therapy session is the reason it's my favourite episode of sunny.

[@travisray2934]

Freaking A, the way Dennis enters the room floors me dude 🤣🤣🤣 1:46

[@AnneSofieLovesMozart]

This is so great! I love the show, and I keep being impressed by how well written it is. Thanks for the analysis of the analysis!

[@mervegdz7036]

The way he looks at Charlie at 6:20... That's me everytime Charlie appears on the screen... I feel u doc... I feel u

[@MrKeeganimal]

The headbanging, from my own experience, is exactly as you describe. I've banged my head off walls to try relieve overwhelming thoughts.

[@4dultw1thj0b]

Does he know Dennis actually canonly got a BPD diagnosis? That'd be interesting for him to tackle

[@MonoKrohm_2020]

Even Glenn has said that wasn’t a rock solid plot point. BPD is one of the more misdiagnosed mental illnesses out there, and it’s quite possible that it’s not at all what Dennis has

[@SpectreSpook]

God damn. “Mom, can we get Tom Ellis?” “No, we have Tom Ellis at home.” *Tom Ellis at home is actually just as good*

[@Maddjacklee81]

Honestly you could react to just about any Always Sunny episode and have plenty to talk about. Dennis is a gold mine.

[@VI_V2]

hey I was wondering what is the best way of contacting you?

[@DoctorElliottCarthy]

Insta (@dr.elliott.carthy) or twitter (@elcarthy) would be best if you have either of those 😊

[@himom5930]

Just discovered your channel and have been binging non stop. I love your personality and breakdowns, please more iasip and other sitcoms. It’s a great way to become familiar with psych terms and ideas through something we’re familiar with, brilliant!

[@DoctorElliottCarthy]

The positive feedback means a huge amount. It's what keeps me going while the channel is still so small so thanks so much

[@robertgary3561]

When I was a kid my parents made me see a psychiatrist once. I just remember him asking me strange hypotehtical questions and in the end he got very angry with me. Never knew what to think of them since then.

[@alize0623]

That’s so incredibly weird

[@casualcausalityy]

He was disappointed you were sane and wouldn't require decades of therapy

[@ofallmyintention9496]

7:27 I like how you paused the video to tell everyone that Charlie's "cat thing" is very weird. lol.

[@eugenestaniel]

I always felt as though Dennis was based off Ted bundy

[@jasonfifi]

i hate silent starts, too. it's super common in forensics, or other practices where the goal is to have an unhealthy power dynamic.

[@BertFromOhio]

The silent start sounds really flawed though. The anxiety I bet most people are going to start with is probably "I'm paying for this, so we need to not waste time" lol

[@matthewgallaway3675]

If I paid for it I wouldn’t talk first because taking first is a sign of weakness

[@MelanieFromCanada]

I have watched this entire show no less than 8xs. And I learned something today, while laughing. Ty

[@Roger_808]

damn. out of all the youtubers who work in a specific field and react to tv shows and movies. id say your the best one. the way you explain everything so well is perfect. i dont really know why but i feel like you do a really good job at putting into words what you think of when you would be watching the show normaly, which is an agle id never see otherwise.

Another couple good episodes to a reaction would be Mac and Dennis Move to the Suburbs and Hero or Hate Crime.

[@NOxSPLOOSHxPLANE]

One of the best TV shows around and a great episode for any doctor to breakdown lol

[@matt-oo6fu]

My therapist is a Vietnam combat veteran, and he told me a story about a guy who was discharged because of Conversion Disorder. He knew a young man who DREAMED of being a fighter pilot. He joined the air force, went through all the training, had hundreds of hours of practice, and not once did he have any problems. He was committed and enthusiastic all the way through. Then the second they put him in a cockpit for an actual mission, he went blind. He couldn't move his eyes, his pupils didn't respond to light. They just stopped working COMPLETELY. And it happened every single time he got in a plane, or the gunner seat. He had to be discharged and sent home from Vietnam because of it. (I think he told me the story because I don't know when I'm anxious either, until it becomes physical. Nothing nearly as extreme, though.) also, hilarious that it took all of 3 lines to diagnose Dennis PERFECTLY.

[@vaerii9094]

“This group has zero ability to manage their own emotions.”

[@bdavid52178]

"This group have zero ability to regulate and manage their own emotions" This was probably the original pitch

[@Crayolapup]

Growing up I never trusted anyone enough to tell them anything when I was feeling bad. Or I thought those feelings just weren’t valid or they would not understand. My friends got mad at me for not talking. Teachers kept asking. Eventually my friends accepted a pattern of me crying and hiding for a bit. Then us going back to normal like nothing happened. I opened up to a therapist about those feelings. They rolled their eyes at me. Yelled at me over those feelings / anxieties. That experience taught me to be careful about any future therapists I meet.

[@davidokinsky114]
