“It’s Always Sunny’s” lack of awards recognition is so well known that a season nine episode called “The Gang Tries Desperately to Win an Award” remains as relevant in 2026 as it was in 2013.
The other two co-stars of the show, Danny DeVito and Kaitlin Olson, have each been recognized. In DeVito’s case, he won in 1981 for “Taxi,” along with nominations in 1979, 1982, and 1983 for the same role. He was also nominated in 2004 for his guest spot on “Friends.” Olson received a nomination in 2020 for her role in Quibi series “Flipped” and three more in 2022, 2024, and 2026 for “Hacks.”
But the three original dudes behind the show, Mac, Day, and Howerton, have all been snubbed — not only for their iconic performances as Mac, Charlie, and Dennis, but for writing, directing, and producing the series, too.
Howerton starred on “AP Bio,” for which he was not nominated, while Mac created, wrote, and starred in Apple TV+ series “Mythic Quest,” which was snubbed for all four of its wonderful seasons. Day also produced “Mythic Quest.”
Mac is currently appearing on the FX docu-series “Welcome to Wrexham,” which he also executive-produces, so that finally earned him two producing wins, but he still hasn’t been recognized for acting.
