It’s Labor Day here in the Empire. The holiday that has been co-opted and become a celebration of the successful completion of a Summer. It also signals what is for many the Long March towards Winter. Via Autumn. Me? I fucking love the Fall. Favorite season. It’s not too cold, but it’s cool enough to snuggle up with a blanket.

With Glenn Howerton announcing that the show will end after its tenth season, I both understand and simultaneously frown.

With the new season of Always Sunny kicking off in five weeks or so, FX is beginning to ignite the Hype Rocket with trailers for the season. This one featuring Fat Mac is goddamn glorious. I know it’s such a simple conceit, but I can’t get enough of it .

Hit the jump for the trailer.
