Sunny in philadelphia mac gay

Rob McElhenney, creator and star of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, spoke about the decision to make his character Mac openly gay on the controversial sitcom.

A show as long-running as It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia with its 16 seasons sees many of even its most morally dubious characters undergo one change or another. Rickety Cricket goes from a priest into a broken-down "street urchin"; Frank and Charlie frequently spend time apart only to come back together; Dennis even disappears from the show for half a season. Of all these characters, Mac may be the one who undergoes the most significant changes.

"Is Mac gay?" has been asked by basically everyone on It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and Rob McElhenny has revealed his character's sexuality.

All All. Sign in. Although Mac Rob McElhenney is now an out and proud gay man, the writers of " It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia " did not always plan for that to be the case.

Rob McElhenney, creator and star of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, spoke about the decision to make his character Mac openly gay on the controversial sitcom.

If he were just a guy struggling to bottle up his homosexuality, that would just be depressing, and a different kind of show. Mac gets involved with a beautiful pre-op transsexual named Carmen, who he initially approaches for Charlie, who they all believe have cancer. Mac and Carmen date for the duration of the episode but she dumps him when he loudly states in public that she has a penis.

But around season four it became abundantly clear that the only straight Mac was--as Sweet Dee and McElhenney's real-life wife Kaitlin Olsen puts it--was " straight up gay." So how did Mac get.
