“We very rarely get blowback because our audience is savvy enough to know we’re not advocating bad behavior, we’re satirizing it," McElhenney said during a TV press tour visit to the FXX comedy's set on Wednesday. He pointed to It's Always Sunny's history of tackling topics like racism and #MeToo. “The characters are one way, but the show is never celebrating that behavior," he said.
