It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia has been renewed for a 15th season, meaning it’s set to make television history.
The renewal, announced by FX on Tuesday, means that the sitcom will become the longest running live-action comedy series.
The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, which aired for 14 seasons on ABC between 1952 and 1966, was the previous record holder.
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia began airing in 2005 on FX and is now broadcast on its partner channel FXX.
Co-creator Rob McElhenney has previously indicated that the show will keep existing as long as fans’ enthusiasm remains intact.
“It takes us about five months to make a season of Sunny. We have that period of our lives carved. We’re going to keep doing it forever if people keep watching,” he said in January during a press tour, according to Deadline.
FX unveiled its programming slate through 2021 on Tuesday.
It includes the third season of American Crime Story, titled Impeachment, which will focus on Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial and feature Beanie Feldstein, Sarah Paulson, and Clive Owen.
Atlanta, Fargo, American Horror Story, Archer and Dave are all getting new seasons as well.
