It’s At all times Sunny in Philadelphia does rather a lot proper, and a type of issues is the present’s dealing with of working gags. That is very true within the case of recurring characters like Rickety Cricket or the McPoyales. Sunny‘s record-setting seventeenth season, which airing amid the 2025 TV schedule, is not any totally different. But I didn’t anticipate the writers to succeed in this deep into the vault. In the newest episode to air on FXX, Jaimie Alexander’s Tammy returns to the favored FXX sitcom, and the actress herself had a candy message for the forged and crew.
If you happen to don’t keep in mind who the Thor alum performed on the raunchy present, that’s not stunning given all of the Sunny visitor stars you might have forgotten. Jaimie Alexander first appeared in Season 1, Episode 3, “Underage Consuming: A Nationwide Concern”. On this episode, the gang decides to serve alcohol to minors and will get wrapped up in highschool drama consequently. Alexander performs Tammy, a senior set on taking Dennis (Glenn Howerton) to the promenade.
Who would’ve thought that 20 years later, Alexander would reprising her function for the primary time in years? With that, she shared some heartfelt phrases about her reunion with Howerton, who reshared her Instagram story put up from his personal account:
When she made her first look as Tammy in 2005, Jaimie Alexander was solely three years older than her character and, mockingly, she was precisely the authorized ingesting age. Whereas it is a full-circle second OG followers of Sunny can undoubtedly respect, I can’t assist however really feel observe simply a lot time has handed for the reason that comedy first aired. Regardless, I like this candy message and the truth that Tammy has been introduced again into the fold.
It is attention-grabbing to contemplate that It’s At all times Sunny marked Alexander’s first TV function, particularly now that she’s turn out to be a veteran of the medium. Since that first gig, she landed the lead function on Blindspot and appeared in different notable reveals like Bones and Nurse Jackie. Alexander even reprised her function as Woman Sif from the Thor franchise for 2 episodes of Brokers of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Jaimie Alexander’s return for the Sunny Season 17 episode “Overage Consuming: A Nationwide Drawback” sees Tammy stepping foot into Paddy’s Pub as soon as once more. Nonetheless, this time, she’s there to gather her personal underage son, Trey Jr.
That’s proper, Tammy and her highschool boyfriend, Trey — performed by Robert Adamson — are nonetheless collectively. And, in fact, Charlie has saved up with all of the gossip. Now, although, Dee and Dennis are in scorching pursuit of the couple and, whereas Trey and Tammy appear to have grown up, the Reynolds definitely haven’t.
Following It’s At all times Sunny’s extremely anticipated crossover premiere with Abbott Elementary, there’s been a slight lack in pleasure amid Season 17. Nonetheless, I feel this most up-to-date episode that includes Alexander and Robert Adamson’s returns could also be a turning level. When writers are in want of fabric after 16 Seasons, fan service is just not a nasty possibility (in some instances). I’d like to see extra characters from early seasons return this late within the sport. For instance, I’m wondering what turned of the Dumpster Child the gang exploited in Season 3…
That apart, although, Jaimie Alexander’s pretty message is a testomony to the bonds that may be fashioned amongst those that work on It is At all times Sunny in Philadelphia. Those that need to see what else is in retailer for the Paddy’s Gang can accomplish that by tuning into FXX each Thursday at 9 p.m. ET. Or watch new episodes the following day with a Hulu subscription.
