So, it's a show that centers around terrible people - narcissistic sociopaths. They all have zero redeeming qualities, I find it hard to get into a show when you can't identify or empathize with any of the characters at all.
I could still get into it with abysmal characters IF it was really funny, but I find myself rarely laughing or even smiling. It tends to leave me cringy, when I'm looking for comedy to be uplifting. It's just terrible people doing terrible things. There's a few episodes here and there that are better than others, but that's about the best I can say.
I've loved Charlie Day and Rob McElhenney in other things, « Horrible Bosses » and « Mythic Quest » are both much better use of the actors (and as writers!). I love Charlie and Rob's writing in the latter, but they don't win much with me in 'It's Always Sunny...'
