Hey Creeps! What’s your favorite Rickety Cricket moment on Always Sunny?

Now we need to get the McPoyle brothers on here

The visual was so bizarre. A clean shaven Charlie, Glenn and Rob having buzz cuts. Meanwhile David hasn’t aged in 20 years. Looked like if instead of ruining his life, Cricket converted the gang lol

I hope David knows how important he was and is to sunny being what it is.

Charlie Day I think is the only person on planet earth who looks older withOUT a beard

Cricket's arc has been one of the funniest things in television history

Using actual clips from the show (and from "Boldly Going Nowhere") is a MASSIVE improvement to the Pod. Great job guys!

“you look exactly the same. that’s very upsetting to me!” is such a dennis thing to say omg why do i love this man so much 😭

Being a creep is so much better than being a listener. The visual back and forth that they give off are just so fucking hilarious

Someone finally offered Cricket some lemons to make an appearance! 🍋🍋🍋

He's never going to see this, and it's nothing to do with IASIP... But David encapsulates the role of Executive Producer in Mythic Quest, scarily well. I've worked in games for 20 years and he is literally every producer I've ever worked with, rolled into one. Just amazing. As Cricket, his acting is insane too. But I don't have too much of a frame of reference for Priests that descend into a personal, drug fuelled hell.

The whole jean shorts monologue is such underrated genius. The implication of this man having a harrowing jean-shorts history that runs so deep that it comes out in drunk-party talk is just so over the top hilarious. It makes me think of an elderly man on his deathbed desperately trying to convey to his grandson that he doesn't repeat the same mistakes he made...with jean shorts.

Every time glen does an impression it is always shockingly good

Dude, they HAVE to give us "Boldly Going Nowhere". Those couple of minutes hooked me in.

Love seeing David Hornsby, would love to see Chad Coleman on the show, but who I really want to see on the show is Jimmy Simpson.

I always imagined the sound cricket makes from the lemon is based on pain from his open crack sores in his mouth interacting with the acid from the lemon

The "did you get your shot mr. producer?" bit is one of the funniest things I've heard in a while

Over an hour-long podcast ep AND we get Cricket himself as a guest? Today is already a great day :)

My favorite Cricket moment is in the delivery room when the heartwarming Kate Bush plays and we pan to Crick lighting an aluminum foil crackpipe.

David is so underrated as a comedian. He kills it in IASIP and Mythic Quest

the best part of this is seeing friends of 25 years still making each other giggle with old and new jokes

So stoked to have Cricket come on!! As a creep I gotta say the editing, and set look awesome what an evolution from day one! Great job to the team!

If I had known Cricket was coming I would’ve brought a full sixer!!! HE HAS HIS DIGNITY!!!

Rob's story of David refusing to put his book away was amazing. Love that

David’s little notecard bits of ted talk wisdom kills me everytime i rewatch this episode of the podcast, i would listen to an entire episode of him just reading off more of those

Cricket is one of the funniest guys in the show.. watching the bloopers for the show made me appreciate him so much more

I 100% thought his voice was a voice he made up for the character, and was not expecting him to sound like that 😂😂

i love how david's character in boldly going nowhere is exactly the same as his character in mythic quest. one of the all time greatest typecast actors

It’s so great to see these guys all together - I can see so clearly why they cast David and continued to involve him… what a beautifully cool fella.

It's so sweet that Charlie dressed up for Hornsby, and started taking on the role of host as the episode progressed to bring the conversation back to him. Considering how far they go back, it's no wonder. You can tell there is just so much respect and love between them.

That dumb bird and the waitress a couple weeks ago crickety cricket today...I love this podcast so much. I can't wait wait for Danny DeVito to appear

PLEASE include more outtakes like the "faking it" riff, where we get to see them develop a joke through improv over repeated takes. That and the bit from last time where Charlie and Glenn redid the board game scene are the best parts of this awesome podcast

"So were these to create a lull or fill one?" Damn Megan going hard with that one! 😂

the best bloopers are with cricket - my favourite one is "well sometimes you don't fake it"

I could have listened to David reading his notecards and the overly-underwhelming response from the others for another hour. That was hilarious.

I Know David thinks Cricket is an unrealistic character now but there are at least 10 crackheads where I live in east London U.K. that are exactly like Cricket 😂

"U know how many times i fake it on the streets? Ya gotta fake it. Ones who dont get it the worst." Lolol

It's crazy David barely aged compared to his first appearance on the show back in season 2.

we need an episode with Jimmi Simpson and Pondy! he’s the coolest after all. Danny should be later like a final boss with a special hour and half long episode.

It’s insane how talented Glen is. He can act, do impressions, sing, he’s funny, handsome, charming

Really liked David Hornsby since Joe Schmoe days. Truly an underrated staple of Sunny Lore! He truly elevated the comedy of IASIP. Legend.

With how depraved Danny is in the show, an episode where he spends the day with Cricket doing homeless crackhead activities would be a great setting.

Literally my comfort podcast. Every episode I’m like “this is the best episode yet!”

I would love to see Boldly Going Nowhere. And having "Cricket" and "Dee" be married is a great little nod to the Always Sunny dynamic they had as if this were an alternate universe with them. I would watch that show in a heartbeat.

We'd love to see Boldly Going Nowhere and other old clips from the original Sunny pilot! And yes _PLEASE_ to an episode with Chad Coleman! Z is such an underrated and underused side character. I know a lot of people want Jimmi Simpson and Nate Mooney on the podcast too (and that would be amazing), but may I suggest Scott Marder and Rob Rosell since their writing seems to have had such an effect on the show?

If watched in reverse, Cricket has the best character arc in the TV history!

Megan came in there at the end and gave me the biggest laugh of the episode with her “was this to create a lull or in case of a lull?” 🤣

"Time is relative, call-time is doubly so." -Glenn Howerton

This felt like the most organic episode yet. You can truly see the friendship they all have here. It feels like David might be the glue that holds them together.

Chad’s reading of that line from Boldly Going Nowhere was so funny. “Yeah, but you were smackin it! Bein all loud!!”

david brittlesbee is such a fun, weirdly relatable character. he's the whole reason I fell in love with mythic quest, which btw is what actually made me decide to watch sunny (I had tried before but thought it wasn't for me). now I'm obsessed with both shows and with his sense of humor. can't wait to see what he'll write next

I was watching a Cheers rerun the other day, and Carla did that exact "DONE!" gag that Frank did here LOL

Life is super dark right now. I'm so happy to have this.

Cricket: Mr. Reynolds, I would like to ask for your daughter's hand in marriage. Frank: DONE. The brilliance of Danny DeVito is amazing. One word and he stole the entire scene!

I loved the riff at the end. And from this interview with Hornsby I really got the impression that he enables so much on the show. His presence and the way he facilitates the conversations just really brings out the best in everyone. Excellent episode!

They got Cricket for an hour? That must have cost them a whole six pack, or maybe a bag of lemons

"What is scaling?" Back into character for a sec.

I love the episode The gang cracks the liberty Bell, Hornsby did an amazing job writing that episode

The only podcast I love when they talk over each other 😂 it’s like watching a new unscripted episode of sunny

My mother passed away last night, so this is great timing to make me forget the pain I'm in at the moment. Once more, thanks for everything you've given fans over the years, you really help so many people in the most toughest of times.

Was Donovan McNabb not available to read that McDonald's ad?

What a perfect guest! You can tell how much they respect him by how quiet they stay for most of the episode. Very much enjoyed this one!

Boldly Going Nowhere needs to be a full series/movie!

I am sincerely overjoyed to see Hornsby on this show, can't wait for Danny next!

Bringing a book for whenever there's downtime: mood kindred.

Thank God for each one of these humans for the work and great content they have made. I watch sunny daily and have been for years. Never gets old!

I always thought a funny Cricket tattoo would be a “phases of Cricket,” like people get phases of the moon.

David Hornsby is a crucial part of what makes Sunny such a success and I’m so glad we finally get to hear from him on a personal level

ha-ha almost every genuine friendship I have had has started this way.

I've only connected on a show/reality level with 2 series, That 70's Show, and Sunny, I love being able to do that, and it happen so rare, it can't be forced. Feeling something real for all of the talent, and real people, with incredible back stories, and real life paths that brought them all together, it's something very special to me. These shows span over large parts of my life, and I can't thank you all enough.

Meeting all the other cast one by one, i realise why the show is so good, cuz theyre all so funny

Glenn Howerton cracking up in the Lemon bloopers makes me laugh every time!🤣 Only show where the bloopers are just as good as the show!

Every episode Cricket is in is hands down one of my favorites! Loved that he came on! Glad he got lemons they’re good for scurvy 🍋

You know, upon a rewatch, I noticed Glenn was genuinely annoyed coming in. Rob, as he is want to do, continued to prod. Charlie picked up on it and immediately defused the situation. Then all 3 found their "center" (as much as anyone of us can be truly centered) and continued on as if nothing happened because that's what people who have been friends for decades do. It's beautiful. I love you guys.

That old footage of JImmy and David is so precious! 😀😃

While were begging for other characters to come on, I would LOVE if Lynne Marie Stewart (Charlie's mom) could guest!!

So glad they played that bit when he was on stage, that's one of my favorites scenes and I rewind to watch the timing every time! Nice to see Rob laughing as hard as I do! "And that was the first time I thought to myself... I might die, and no one's going to remember..." 😂🤣

These guys showing the bloopers and laughing is a dream come true.

I can't die happy unless I watch at least one episode of "Boldly Going Nowhere" please consider making this an internet series or something. Looks awesome.

I don’t know if it was on purpose but I love that Glenn didn’t do the McDonalds ad🤣

The way Glenn says Crickeeet just gets me every time 😂😂😂😂

Jimi Simpson should be your next guest! Love the show guys. Can't wait for season 16!

Charlie so happy to roast glen for being late after last week hahaha love this

My favorite episode from this podcast. The chemistry between everyone is phenomenal when David is in the room.

cricket has the funniest charact evolution together with Dennis

“Hi, I’m Rob…” “I got enough going on!” Underrated joke. That’s hilarious. 🤣 Such a mood.

Love Cricket for this episode, and definitely need Danny for the Poop the Bed episode!!

I want to see so much more with David. He seems to be an incredibly important part of Sunny and Mr Quest but I don't know if we know much about his role over the years.

Rickety Cricket eating Lemons is the best thing to happen to TV since ever.

This was one of the funniest episodes, so good to hear Hornsby's insights. Very glad you all met!

This is easily my favorite podcast on KZfaq now. And this particular podcast was great. It didn’t drag and felt like it went by so quickly but it had lots of laughs. And Hornsby didn’t even casually mention that his wife is Emily deschanel

Wanted to actually watch the episode for once before commenting, David was great. I really hope we get him back for the Cricket centric episode, where he makes out with the dog. It's basically an entire episode around him. Love the podcast, and love you guys, as always. Keep making magic, I hope Sunny and the Pod both run forever, until the heat death of the universe. Love ya

Boldly Going Nowhere pilot was so good! Would LOVE to see more of it!!

Rob physically putting his arm out when saying “at arms length” is such a Mac thing to do lmao

"Remember, guys. Real champs eat at McDonald's.....I'm lovin' it. Can I get the check?" - Donovan McNabb

Such a pleasure to hear more from David! I loved Megan's joke about the lull, also. Always a Sunny week with the podcast on Monday mornings.

The Jean shorts Is actually my fav scene in my very favorite episode of the entire show. So great.

My new favorite day of the week is Monday. You guys just make it so much better! My favorite Cricket moment is when Charlie and Dee are rubbing ''coke'' on Crickets gums after he sold all of it and they want him to go back out and do it again. Plus he thinks he is going to stay in Dees apartment which makes it extra funny! Love this show and the podcasts!

Made the mistake of watching this during my lunchbreak. Almost choked on food multiple times from hilarious moments out of the blue. What an episode!!
