Ever since Netflix first launched in Australia, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia was one of the biggest gaps in every streaming library that launched subsequently. Despite being one of the longest-running and most consistent comedies on television, Aussie viewers were denied access to Paddy’s Pub for years.

Back in 2020, Amazon Prime Video finally paid the troll toll and picked up the streaming rights but nowadays, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia lives primarily on Disney Plus Australia, alongside other FX shows Disney purchased when it took over Fox.

How to stream It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia in Australia


As television's longest-running live-action sitcom, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia has a lot of episodes in the bank. 162, to be exact. Here in Australia, streaming all eleven seasons (minus a few controversial episodes that have been removed) is mercifully simple if you're a Disney Plus subscriber. Every single season is available to stream on Disney Plus right now, and every future episode will land on the service first. 

Disney Plus plans start at $15.99 per month (or $159.99 per year) for Standard, which includes HD 1080p streaming on two devices. If you're after 4K, you'll need to pay for Disney Plus Premium, which costs $20.99 per month (or $209.99 per year) and offers 4K streaming on up to four devices in one household.

What is It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia?


Each episode of It’s Always Sunny Philadelphia details the misdeeds of four owners of a dingy Irish Bar, Paddy’s Pub, and their illegitimate/legitimate(?) father, Frank Reynolds (Danny Devito like you’ve never seen him).

Privileged siblings Dennis and Dee Reynolds, self-appointed Sheriff of Paddy’s Mac, and maintenance man/glue huffer Charlie Kelly are joined by Devito’s Frank Reynolds, in the gang’s perpetual downward spiral.

The gang’s hare-brained money-making schemes start as well-intentioned projects with disastrous results, but over 13 seasons, all good intentions are thrown to the wind, as the gang resorts to backstabbing, drug-dealing, and underage alcohol service, just to make a dime. On paper, that plot sounds more depressing than Requiem for a Dream, but Sunny always manages to keep the laughs rolling over all 13 seasons. It won’t agree with anyone who struggles to stomach the cringe comedy of shows like Curb Your Enthusiasm, but the show’s long streaks of degenerate behaviour make its rare nuggets of positivity all the more valuable.

What else is streaming on Disney Plus?


Ever since merging with Fox, there's a mountain of television comedy to stream on Disney Plus. In fact, some of its most popular shows star It's Always Sunny alumni, like Rob McElhenney's Welcome to Wrexham and Kaitlin Olson's High Potential. Other popular comedies include Abbott Elementary, Arrested Development and Only Murders in the Building.
