It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia was never afraid to show how much of a crazy narcissistic lunatic each member of the gang was, but this episode was just something else.
This episode has Dennis and Mac at their most sociopathic. It starts off pretty normal, but as the episode progresses, we see one of the most PSYCHOTIC things to ever happen in this show. And quite frankly, I absolutely adore it.
Dennis has always shown big hits throughout the show of being a maniac, but it has never went as far as the episode took it. Mac feeding Dennis the dead dog he bought for the two of them with his 'famous' Mac & Cheese is still by far, the most VILE thing I have ever witness him do, and Dennis going into madness with him threatening the people causing the traffic, not being able to get enough sleep, and even 'attempting' to murder Wally is always something I remember fondly (even if it turned out not to be Wally). We of course can't forget one of the most iconic moments in the show, which is Dennis imagining himself stripping naked, and screaming at Wally.
This wouldn't be an It's Always Sunny episode if it wasn't filled with dark comedy, and boy is there a ton of them. The humor here is absolutely HILARIOUS. While it isn't the funniest episode the show has ever produced, the fact that this episode can still be dark, hysterical, extremely well-written, and entertaining at the same time makes it deserving of an emmy.
Overall, this episode is top tier, and shows how this show doesn't lose its creativity despite the fact that it has been airing for 11 years. If the show continued making episodes like these, I would enjoy them all the way and not get tired of them (but I like the fact that it's a one-time thing too). I would recommend this EASILY to anyone looking for dark humor at it's best, and those who absolutely loved the "Scott Tenorman Must Die" episode from South Park.
