FX and FXX’s It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia had already cemented that Paddy’s Pub would stay in business an additional year after the recent 11th season, and now the gang’s good misfortune may never end. FX has officially ordered Seasons 13 and 14 for Dennis, Dee, Mac, Charlie and Frank, tying a sitcom record in the process.

Now booked through 2019, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia will officially tie The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet as the longest-running live-action comedy series in television history. Season 11 also marked the gang’s strongest run yet on FXX, while network heads offer:

If anyone doubts the power of a camcorder and a dream, just look at It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, which was a DIY backyard pilot when Rob, Charlie and Glenn brought it to FX and will go down in TV history as one of the most loved and enduring comedies. Few shows make it this far or have such devoted fans, and we owe it all to the creative vision and great humor of the creators and cast who keep Sunny fresh and inventive every season.

Well, no reason to think Glenn Howerton, Katlin Olson, Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day or Danny DeVito will be out of work any time soon, but what nursing home shenanigans might the Always Sunny gang get around to by the time 2019 rolls around?
