Just talking about this...I've been watching moments from Season 1 for the past few months and it's fascinating how tonally different, but not really, the show was. Mac felt like the one calling the shots most of the time instead of Dennis, while Dee and Charlie weren't nearly as defined as they are now. None of them were. Not to say that they've been Flanderized, but like a lot of first seasons, Always Sunny really did feel a bit more grounded prior to Frank's arrival. Now yes, Danny DeVito joining the show was a shot in the arm that the show needed, but it makes me wonder how the show would have continued had he not become a regular.
Plus, I kind of like how floppy and unkempt Mac's hair looks in the first season.
I was also surprised by how different Dee seemed to be in S1, compared to S2 and beyond. It was for the better, but I thought it was interesting how S1 compared.
