Season 17 of 'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' is set to premiere on July 9, 2025, on FXX, with episodes available for streaming on Hulu the following day.

The new season will feature the return of the main cast, including Charlie Day, Glenn Howerton, Rob McElhenney, Kaitlin Olson, and Danny DeVito.

The official trailer for the season has been released, showcasing a crossover episode with 'Abbott Elementary' and promising the show's signature raunchy comedy and social commentary.

This season includes crossovers with both 'The Golden Bachelor' and 'Abbott Elementary', highlighting the gang's outrageous adventures.

In a parody of 'The Golden Bachelor', Frank, played by Danny DeVito, will search for love, selecting a contestant named Cock Chewa, with Jesse Palmer making a cameo.

The character Cock Chewa, portrayed by Haliey Welch, is described as a Southern girl, adding to the season's comedic elements.

The plot will continue to explore the characters' despicable antics, focusing on their desires for success, love, and attention while satirizing current pop culture trends.

Overarching themes of the season include the gang's pursuit of love, respect, and financial success, reflecting their motivations since the show's inception.

The crossover with 'Abbott Elementary' follows previous interactions where the gang participated in community service at the school.

Quinta Brunson, creator of 'Abbott Elementary', noted that the crossover felt natural due to the characters' shared backgrounds in South and West Philadelphia.

The season's official synopsis reveals that the gang will engage in questionable practices, including exploiting cross-network promotions for financial gain.

Creator Rob McElhenney remains optimistic about the show's future, despite acknowledging the challenges of continuing the series.
