This was by far one of the most healing pieces of media I've consumed as a member of the lgbt community. There are movies that are solely about being gay that didn't resonate with me the way this episode did, it's obvious that the people writing those movies don't "get it" the way Rob and Charlie do. Last night I watched my home state elect a man who doesn't even believe in marriage equality and that made me feel hopeless. This morning, I watched a show that is famous for its extreme satire take a moment to reach out and comfort a community that is too often on the receiving end of horrible jokes. I am not exaggerating when I say that I feel like I was given a hug by everyone involved with this episode, and I appreciate how much the cast and crew care about my community. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

Never in a million years, after binging 13 seasons of this show did I expect something like that. I am not a member of the LGBTQ community. I will never know what it is like to struggle with my identity in that way... but, and I can't even explain how, the dance number at the end hit me in the gut in a way I will never be able to describe. Good job, gang. Completely out of nowhere!

Wow.

For a good 3/4's of this episode, Sunny showcases it's well known black humor, such as the degradation of Frank's infected face and a funny Cricket cameo. It's typical, classy Sunny as the gang tries to get Mac to dance on their pride float.

It's the last quarter of this episode that floored me. Beautiful and emotionally charged, Mac Finds His Pride strikes an unfamiliar, yet powerful tone. One of the best season endings on television. I wish I could talk more, but it's important that viewers watch this scene with a fresh set of eyes.

I created an account just to give this episode a well-deserved 10/10. This isn't "peak Sunny". This is a different Sunny episode. Yet, one of their best.

This episode was completely unexpected and incredibly beautiful and breathtaking. Amazing job!

There are plenty of people out there who LOVE that this show takes big swings. Just because it doesn't work for what YOU came to the show with, doesn't mean it doesn't work period. And encouraging a show to end simply because YOU no longer get something from it, or because it's been a few episodes since you laughed, is the epitome of the Always Sunny narcissism that you once enjoyed. Look at how many lives were touched by this episode.

At its most basic, what is comedy? When you laugh at something, what's happening in your brain? A recognition of something real-The act of laughing releases endorphins that make, just for a moment, all the chaos and noise in your life fade away. It moves you. It touches you. Without hitting you over the head, Mac's dancing had the same cathartic effect as the most well written jokes on the show.

This show isn't The Office without Steve Carrell. It doesn't need to end now, or ever, as long as they're still putting out content that moves people. Beautiful things don't have to be funny. Funny things don't have to be surrounded by beauty. Life is better with Always Sunny on TV, period.

I enjoyed the dance. Screw the haters. I thoght it was poignant.

I've not been a huge fan of this season on the whole, but this episode may well be my favourite of them all. I can understand the low ratings people are giving it because I understand that some people just aren't ready for what happened here. The ending was epic, stunning and truly unexpected. I won't go into details but be ready for something you could never be ready for 👌🏻

All shows go down with time, but this was a free fall. By far the worst season with the worst ending. There were maybe 3-4 episodes which were decent and resembled the old set up. The rest was BAD and it was because of the writing. The characters are way off and have no depth. Take Frank for example, its like the writers had only one guideline for him - be gross, and they took that way over the top in this episode, it made no sense. In the previous episodes his "grossness" would be just a funny sideline but in this one it dominated the whole episode. There was no motivation for what he was doing, and it made no sense that he was "given this job" by Dee and Charlie. Old Frank doesnt really take orders and he always has an agenda. In general the story made no sense, it was never even remotely explained why were they doing the whole thing. The gang always has an agenda, even in the character arc episodes, which I assume this was supposed to be for Mac. Thats another thing, even in the character arc episodes the character would retain its essence, what makes him funny, but in this one Mac was way off. He was serious and dark, which were never his traits.

Cricket cameo felt forced for some reason (even tough it was funny, classic cricket), and Luthers character was also not portrayed correctly. He should be monotonous and dark, it started of that way, but it soon went in another direction.

I just finished watching the episode, and right now I would give this an 11 if I could. I will not give any spoilers. It is a very unusual episode, I didn't know where it was going at first, but, then it morphed into this strange and beautiful art film. In an odd way, if this turned out to be the last episode of the show, I would almost be okay with it. This is certainly not the funniest episode that the show has ever done, but, it is definitely one of the most creative. The ending is beautiful.

I get it . Personally I think you can tell from the start of the episode it's going to have that heartfelt soft touch that's Sunny sometimes decides to give us. Everything about this episode is what makes sunny special , they somehow manage to do something they do all of the time but also what they've never done. The dance , the music , the reaction from Frank especially was just perfect . My favourite always sunny moment , breaking of the barriers... I get it , I finally get it!!

Hilarious and then the end.. damn. If you can't appreciate the ending, you need to check yourself. I mean... even Frank gets it. Don't be a worse human than Frank.

I'm not an artsy person. I hate interpretive dance. I prefer a happy ending. By & large I've been disappointed in this show for a couple seasons now. I like it better when it's the whole gang mixed up in shenanigans riffing off of each other and the world at large. Cricket repulses me. I always thought the whole gay thing was just being played for laughs. I came here expecting to see the usual slew of negative feedback and complaining about the season. I figured that the average fan would have hated it; even by the relaxed standard of what the show has become, this is far from your typical fare. I don't really give out "perfect" reviews. I barely give out reviews at all (seriously, who in this empty void cares one whit about what I think about any of this?) .... Having said all that, I honestly cannot think of a single thing I don't love about this episode. I'm stunned -blown away, really- at the quality displayed tonight. I truly believe that this episode transcends everything. The fact that I had to say anything at all speaks volumes, but the fact that I can't find anything negative to say about it says worlds more. Anyone who thinks this is a one-note crew is seriously missing out (I'm not above admitting that I was wrong in thinking so a mere half hour ago).

That was the first sentimental character progression we had from the cast on sunny. It's a brave step and I feel a lot of people just won't get it the way frank does. The episode felt like it was lining up to typical sunny style with a chaotic ending but it didn't and I'm not disappointed where it went. That last scene was so incredibly choreographed and heart wrenching.

I always think it's courageous when they try new things with the show especially when this episode (like the previous two) will seem like it's catered for particular groups of people. These types of eps will always receive backlash from those who oppose these things eg gay pride, sports teams.

Anyway, I wouldn't let the negative reviews deter me but I guess it all depends on how open minded you are at the end of the day.
