The enigmatic McPoyle brothers make a long-awaited return in It's Always Sunny Season 16 Discover the shocking reason behind their 7-year absence and learn about their unexpected venture into the world of bowling with their new alley
Ryan and Liam McPoyle have made their highly anticipated return to It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia in season 16. Fans of FXX's beloved sitcom have long been requesting the comeback of the McPoyle brothers, who were last seen in season 11. Fortunately, their pleas have been answered as Ryan and Liam McPoyle now have a significant presence in episode 7 of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia season 16.
Ryan & Liam McPoyle Opened Up A Bowling Alley After It's Always Sunny Season 11
"The Gang Goes Bowling" Unveils the Fate of the McPoyles
In a surprising development, Ryan and Liam McPoyle have ventured into the realm of entrepreneurship during the period between seasons 11 and 16 of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Following their unsuccessful attempt to establish a video rental store, the McPoyle siblings have now delved into the world of bowling alley ownership. Despite encountering a setback in the form of Ryan sustaining a severe injury when his hand was crushed by a bowling ball, their bowling alley venture appears to be prospering.
However, there remains an enigmatic void regarding the whereabouts of the McPoyles subsequent to their appearance in season 11. Ryan and Liam embark on a lawsuit against Bill Ponderosa in that season, asserting that he was responsible for Liam's eye being lost. In customary It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia fashion, the case descends into utter chaos, resulting in its dismissal. Season 16 marks the McPoyles' return following their ill-fated legal battle, implying that the duo likely proceeded to open the bowling alley soon after.
Why The McPoyle Family Was Missing From It's Always Sunny For 7 Years
The absence of the McPoyle family from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia for seven years left many fans wondering about their sudden disappearance. However, the reason behind their prolonged absence in the show until the sixteenth season is quite simple. According to Rob McElhenney's revelation on the official It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia podcast, the actors portraying the McPoyles faced scheduling conflicts, preventing their frequent return to the show.
Jimmi Simpson, known for his role as Liam McPoyle, has landed significant roles in Westworld and Unhinged following his breakout performance in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Similarly, Nate Mooney, who portrayed Ryan McPoyle, kept busy with his series Stan Against Evil, which aired from 2016 to 2018. Perhaps if their schedules had been more open, the McPoyles could have made more appearances. Nevertheless, it is a welcome sight to see them returning in season 16 of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Catch the new episodes airing on Wednesdays on FXX.
