The Gang Solves a Mystery: How Many Episodes Are in Season 16 of It's Always Sunny?
The Paddy's Pub crew is infamous for their questionable schemes and even more questionable life choices. But even Dennis's elaborate manipulation tactics can't change the facts. So, how many episodes are there in season 16 of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia? Brace yourselves, because unlike finding a decent beer at Paddy's, the answer is shorter than you might think.
Not So Long Now: 8 Episodes is the Golden Number
QuickTip: A quick skim can reveal the main idea fast.
That's right, folks. Season 16 of It's Always Sunny only clocked in at a measly eight episodes. Did Charlie accidentally spend the rest of the season budget on "Frackcoin," or did Dee finally blackmail her way into a bigger role (doubtful)? The world may never know.
QuickTip: Focus on what feels most relevant.

- Frank bought the network and replaced it with a channel dedicated to his "Kitten Mittens" invention.
- The Gang accidentally caused a time warp while trying to make "time milk" and ended up in a shortened reality.
- This is all a ploy by the McPoyles to lull us into a sense of security before unleashing their ultimate plan (which probably involves milk and boiling denim).
Look, Charlie, Maybe It Was Just a Creative Decision
Okay, even Charlie knows his theories are a bit out there. In all seriousness, the number of episodes likely came down to creative decisions by the showrunners. Maybe they just had a killer eight-episode story arc in mind, or perhaps they're stockpiling shenanigans for an epic seventeenth season (which, by the way, has already been greenlit!).
