This week, during the event to introduce FX to its investors, the head of the channel John Landgrave announced after the confirmation of a new season in recent months, that the black comedy ” It’s always nice in Philadelphia“Will officially become the longest-running sitcom in American television history.
And is that, if reaching season 14 was already a challenge, the channel approved that the series last until season 18. Those who do not know the program will wonder, how such a series so ignored in the seasons of awards and with almost zero presence in global trends, can it be so successful? What makes it so attractive?

The series centers on a group of four friends who, while hating each other, have to put up with each other due to sharing ownership of an Irish bar. The show has the audacity to make us think it is exercising social criticism on really important topics while making us cry with laughter by making us understand that it is not.
Even the series would never force us to accept that whatever our protagonists do is okay. In fact, part of its charm is making us debate whether or not to laugh at what we see on screen.

To have to summarize the series in six episodes would be an understatement. However, this little guide is actually a little inducement to encourage those who want to get into one of the best comedy shows that nobody talks about in the media. Of course, some susceptibilities could be damaged in the process.
