My favorite always sunny trope is when they’re like “oh man we need that thing, we forgot it, that thing wish we had it” and then “would you just drop it with the thing?!?”

[@frankoc3ans]

and the thing is something they don’t really NEED for the plan (usually mac or charlie, sometimes frank)

[@LatinaCreamQueen]

I think what I especially find adorable is that nothing changes when Mac comes out to the gang. Charlie doesn't treat him any different and a good example is when they go to the zoo and when they beat up the kids who steal their bike. In fact, the episode he DOES come out Charlie responds with "good for him." It's incredibly sweet.

[@scourgemeltface]

Uhh macs relationship with everyone on the show changes right before he comes out. They all literally always talk about how they hate mac behind his back for the remainder of the series starting with mac day

[@jameshaggerty8348]

@@scourgemeltfaceI feel like they only hate him when he bosses them around, preaches his religious beliefs, his denial, his “identity”, and his unbearable stupidity.

Tip of the cap to having the clip where Mac smiles in the background as Charlie does his 8th grade dance. So low key loving and supportive.

Even though I've seen every episode at least five times only around a month ago I realised the interviewer is the waiter from Guginos..... he likely got fired for hiring Mac and Charlie and had to work in Guginos..... makes the gang not recognising him even funnier because he is that forgettable.

[@cowboyluigi5275]

As much as I love Frank’s addition to the show, he pretty much replaced Mac as Charlie’s best friend in the later seasons (now that they’re roommates). I kinda miss the dynamic between them because it’s usually “Charlie + Frank” and “Mac + Dennis” nowadays.

[@marklipson]

Charlie slaps the hysterical Mac to focus him and calm him down. Then, just as Mac is calming down, Charlie suddenly yells at him out of the blue, "HEY! LOOK AT ME!"...which startles Mac, freezing him just for an instant, providing Charlie with the perfect target...and he slaps his face a second time for no particularly good reason and without missing a beat. I grew up on the Three Stooges, Abbott & Costello and Bugs Bunny, and the IASIP guys are right up there with those masters of physical, slapstick comedy

[@masterzombie161]

Sadly though later on Charlie actually becomes more closer to Dennis than Mac. Granted Mac lives with Dennis and they are co-dependent, however Dennis tends to shift his real emotions onto Charlie in a lot of moments. While Dennis and Charlie do in a way consider Mac a member of the gang, but sadly they don’t like his beliefs, they don’t like that he will backstab them at any opportune moment, and they really don’t like that his identity crisis he’s been having for like 4 seasons now. Honestly I think it would be interesting to see a moment of clarity from Mac on how he views the gang. Mac is nothing more than a scared child, who brought his own misery on himself and he was the sole reason on why he’s that miserable. It’s why I love this show so much, every little detail amounts to something.

[@aznanimegob]

The jean shorts scene, door marked pirate, and dee day with the candy all great examples of their relationship

[@itaxevasixn8808]

Touch grass.

[@mbovb006]

Eh I don't pick up on that at all. Dennis has actually gotten more removed from the group in any kind of closeness. Best visual representation is them walking down the hill in the very latest season finale and Dennis is on the outside. Fits the psychotic behavior better. While the rest were a lot closer and showing affection.

I gotta be honest, I feel like Mac is the most developed character on the show. He's fleshed out, isn't used for super-simple comedic moments, and you feel a genuine struggle with who Mac is, and what he's been through. For a show that hypes itself as the lowest of the low, Mac goes a cut above.
