The hit show It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is known for its outrageous humor and wild storylines. Season 17 is already generating buzz, with the episode "Frank Is in a Coma" hailed as an instant classic. But the comedy doesn't just stay on screen; the cast is known for their off-screen antics as well.
Danny DeVito Gets Pranked!
In a recent interview, Danny DeVito shared a hilarious story about being the victim of an elaborate April Fool's Day prank orchestrated by his co-stars Rob McElhenney, Glenn Howerton, Charlie Day, and Kaitlin Olson. The key to their success? DeVito had absolutely no idea what day it was!
DeVito recounted the tale to Collider, explaining how the prank unfolded. "Well, there was a show that was a non-starter that they teased me with a bunch of years ago. It was April 1st. I didn't know it. I didn't know it was April 1st. I didn't know what date it was," DeVito began.
The Setup
The prank began with a seemingly normal morning. DeVito received a script at his house with the news that the show's first episode was being swapped out. He was instructed to read it immediately before arriving for the table read. Oblivious to the date, DeVito sat down and dove into the script.
The details of the prank script remain a mystery, but knowing the cast of It's Always Sunny, it's safe to assume it was something completely absurd and over-the-top. The success of the prank hinged on DeVito's genuine reaction to the unexpected script changes. What makes this story even funnier is DeVito's complete lack of awareness that it was April Fool's Day, making him the perfect target for his mischievous co-stars.
This behind-the-scenes anecdote proves that the cast's chemistry and comedic timing extend far beyond the scripted scenes. It's just another reason why It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia continues to be a fan favorite after so many seasons.
