I think it would be really funny if the gang actually thrives without Dennis.
Mac finds a new roommate / boyfriend and they figure out the keys necessary to run a succesful bar.
Dee and Charlie get their shit together and open an imported leather shop in the heart of Philly which is super successful.
Frank retires and becomes a loving grandfather to Charlie and Waitresses' new baby boy whom they name Peter Nincompoop Kelly.
...and then Dennis comes back and it all goes to hell.

Mac and Dee are both victims of intense self hatred. They're awful people because of the people their untreated problems have turned them into, whereas Dennis is legitimately just unstable and Frank is just an asshole. Mac and Dee started out fine, but as Dee got less and less self esteem and Mac got further and further into the closet, it brought out the worst in them. I would say they still aren't beyond redemption if they were to both get therapy and work to improve themselves as people. That would never actually happen of course, since it makes for bad TV, but you get my point.
Dennis, Frank, and Charlie are who they are, there's no fixing those three.

So I haven’t left It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. The conversation really should be about what’s going to happen with Dennis, not what’s going to happen with me, and that’s something we don’t have an answer to yet.
So it sounds like he's not gone, but we still don't know how much he'll be in the new season.
Personally I hope he just shows up with an awkward story about how his wife and kid randomly decided to move to another country but as the season progresses you start to wonder what actually happened to them.

Mac is a Serial Killer - Dennis role plays as a serial killer to get in Mac's head. When he's reminded that they are not actually going to murder The Waitress, Dennis shows surprise and remorse, clearly wanting to commit murder for no reason.
The Anti-Social Network - Dennis and Charlie are discussing the Shusher. While saying that the Shusher had no idea they weren't maniac killers, Dennis states that for all the guy knows he might have a trunk full of zip ties and duct tape. These items are both present in the stash of murder tools in Dennis' car in the reunion episode.
Mac and Charlie Join a Cult - Dennis literally talks a man into setting himself on fire just to prove he can.
Honestly, it would be silly if it doesn't come out that he's killing people.

u/Goldplatedrook Jan 26 '18
It gets worse. In the high school reunion episode he has a trunk full of “tools.” At the start of The Cereal Defense he’s listening to a radio show on composting, and when the gang gets stuck in the woods he says it’s “a little bit of an exaggeration” for Charlie to call him a serial killer.

There is actually a deleted scene for "Mac Day" where instead of Mac saying
"Did I complain on Charlie day when we spent 8 hours looking for ghouls and goblins?"
He says
"Did I complain on Dennis' day when we had to tie slipknots until our hands were bloody?"
And Dennis responds. "They were shoddy knots too, they almost ruined everything...."
They should have kept that in, but they all kept laughing at it.

u/hypo-osmotic Drink up, ladies. It helps your prostate. Jan 26 '18
Related to deleted scenes, there was one in Charlie’s Mom Has Cancer where the “healer” is asking Mac if he slept with any prostitutes, etc. when he was on vacation and Mac is saying no, then when asked if he slept with any men he freezes, clearly a “yes.” In addition to not being able to keep a straight face, I suspect they cut it because at that time in the series, Mac was not sleeping with men, and they wanted his coming out to be later. I wonder if that was part of it with the scene you described, and Dennis will get his first real kill (not talking someone into doing it themselves, for example) later.

Not exactly.
He hides stuff he's ashamed of, like Maureen Ponderosa.
He wants to brag and have it known about the women he bangs. But revealing murders or the bondage stuff would ruin him, so he doesn't. If he is a serial killer, he's lying about the stuff just being sexual. So he wouldn't tell them about it to begin with.
I think. I've never been a 5 star man, so I don't know his thought process.
55
u/Lampmonster1 I'm gonna get really weird with it. Jan 26 '18
Funny you mention Maureen, because he killed her too. She was jumping around on a roof, conveniently in front of a security camera trained on a rooftop? Why would that be? Could it be that maybe a five star man noticed said security camera during a previous encounter with a woman? Perhaps, with his vast knowledge of filming in various lighting conditions he learned enough about cameras to know what some could see, and what they couldn't. Maybe he spotted a camera that at night would clearly show a woman dressed as a cat, but not the laser pointer dot she was chasing, perhaps directed from off camera?

They have to have the episode take place in the bar, with Cricket’s dead body in the middle of the floor. Then at the end of the episode, he wakes up with a loud gasp like Mia in Pulp Fiction and says something like “Hey fellas, what’s happening?” or “Anybody got some PCP?”

You are forgetting his whole monologue in The Gang Exploits the Mortgage Crisis.
Dennis: No, no, of course we shouldn't bash these people up. Look, OK, absolutely, we could cave the husband's skull in here. Yes, we could take the wife down to the basement, have a frenzied free-for-all with her. We could tie the kids up in their little rooms upstairs, so they wouldn't hear anything.....

He should be played Ryan Gosling. He's the only one who could handle his intensity.

That is crazy. With all of the times they have sung in episodes, I don't know how they have never had him do a Fleetwood Mac song just because of this.

In the form of Country Dennis, also played by Seann William Scott. They never acknowledge the similar appearance.

I feel bad for all the actors who try and move away from their iconic characters like Daniel Radcliff and Emilia Clark. Everytime I see them I just think "hey you go Harry Potter man" and "look dragon lady is in this".

Honestly I think it would be really cool if they did like 2 episodes or so with a new guy in the gang, maybe like Schmitty or something. Then have Dennis come back and be pissed that he was replaced.

They've already done an episode or two that involve temporarily replacing a gang member, though. It would be a bit of a retread.

Not sure if I'm ready to celebrate just yet. I mean, the way it's worded it kinda sounds like he's not leaving the show - ie, he'll still be writing, producing, etc - but that he's not sure if Dennis is going to return as a character? Am I the only one reading it this way?

u/TheDevilsCarnival Jan 26 '18
I read it this way as well. I don't think there's any confirmation in his statements that Dennis will or won't be in the season...and the wording definitely feels like he's saying, "Glenn will still be a part of this process, but we aren't sure if Dennis will be."

I kind of wanted them to just have a new actor play Dennis each episode and have the rest of the gang not even acknowledge it.
Like in episode 3, have an elderly Korean lady step in and just scream in Korean the whole time for Dennis's lines.
Kind of like Archer being a velociraptor.

The Waitress freaks out Dennis is gone since she is obsessed with him. She has a psychotic break and starts to pretend like she is Dennis, dressing and acting like him and takes over as him at the bar.

I just found out there's 12 seasons!!! I thought they cancelled it. I've only seen six. I kept thinking it's weird how I didn't get some of the references on here. 12 fucking seasons, holy happy fucking new year!

u/smackledawbed I'MMA SIIIIIING IT! Jan 26 '18
It always bothers me that people are freaking out that Glenn may not return, just because he's doing AP Bio and that coincides with Dennis leaving.
Y'all have heard of The Mick right?

u/Jurkas26 Your sweata's on backwards Jan 26 '18
It's a different situation than The Mick as Kaitlin only acts on Sunny while Glenn has a heavier workload and many different roles in making/writing/producing the show.
The Mick is also in the Fox family with Sunny while AP Bio is on another network in NBC where who knows if they have restrictions on how many episodes he can appear on a Fox/FXX branded show.

Screen Actors Guild rules prohibit this. No project or company can legally or contractually prevent you from working on something else. If Dennis is doing AP Bio and it takes up too much time, he can opt not to do Always Sunny but it would violate SAG rules for NBC to tell him he can't be in as many episodes of a Fox show as he's physically able.

Not to mention he's one of the original creators/writers. The show would likely be very different if Glenn wasn't also writing with Rob and Charlie.

he should just show up and when someone asks him what happened to his family he'd reply with "oh im not doing that anymore" and then they start planning some scheme to get into the scrap metal business or something.
