Shows Like It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
Four egocentric friends run a neighborhood Irish pub in Philadelphia and try to find their way through the adult world of work and relationships. Unfortunately, their warped views and precarious judgments often lead them to trouble, creating a myriad of uncomfortable situations that usually only get worse before they get better.
Ranked by shared creators, cast, themes, genre, and network — not just generic recommendations.

Mythic Quest
Co-created by and starring Rob Mac with the same Sunny ensemble-of-narcissists workplace dynamic, just slightly softer.

Peep Show
Two delusional male slackers whose self-serving schemes always backfire — UK cousin to the Gang's cringe sitcom DNA.

Arrested Development
Sharp, dark ensemble comedy about an irredeemable selfish family scheming over each other — Sunny's closest tonal cousin on US TV.

Horace and Pete
Same dive-bar setting and dysfunctional barfly orbit, though far more dramatic and somber than Sunny's manic tone.

Shameless
Working-class lowlifes scamming their way through life with crude humor and zero moral compass — dramedy version of the Gang's chaos.

Married... with Children
Foundational politically incorrect sitcom about an unlikable family — clear ancestor to Sunny's anti-sitcom ethos.

Family Guy
Politically incorrect, crude, dysfunctional-family humor that shares Sunny's no-sacred-cows sensibility.

Malcolm in the Middle
Dysfunctional family chaos with broad comedic energy, though far more wholesome than Sunny.

Friday Night Dinner
Bickering-family sitcom where small situations escalate absurdly — same comedy-of-discomfort engine, gentler stakes.

Close Enough
Adult-animated friend-group sitcom about thirty-somethings making bad choices, lighter and more surreal than Sunny.

Platonic
Adult friends destabilizing each other's lives through bad decisions — softer, sweeter relative of Sunny's friendship dynamic.

Six Feet Under
Family-business dark comedy/drama, but tonally far more earnest and grief-driven than Sunny.

The League
FX ensemble of selfish friends sabotaging each other through fantasy football — closest spiritual sibling to Sunny.

Workaholics
Trio of degenerate male friends running schemes from a workplace — direct heir to Sunny's slacker-bro dynamic.

The Righteous Gemstones
Awful narcissistic family operating a business and feuding with each other — Danny McBride's spiritual cousin to Sunny's Gang.
