The Golden Bachelor finds a new leading man in Frank Reynolds in the It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Season 17 trailer. 'Philadelphia, the birthplace of our nation,' host Jesse Palmer says in the clip. 'Could it be the birthplace of a new love?' Frank likes the idea of this, but he might be a little too eager. 'Oh baby am I boned up,' he says as the first contestant pulls up. Later, he adds: 'Can't wait to find a Grade A, prime cut piece of ass — to love.'
The remainder of the trailer is chaos cranked up to the highest setting. There are weird odors, spontaneous fires, references to The Bear being screamed in the back of an ambulance, and everything in between.

The Season 17 trailer also features footage from the recent crossover between It's Always Sunny and Abbott Elementary. 'It seemed both not possible, which is always a good sign, and we knew it would confuse people, which is also a really good sign. So we just jumped in,' Rob McElhenney told Rolling Stone about teaming up with Quinta Brunson, who added: 'We wanted to do it because it could be done, and so many people thought it couldn't. And so I think that alone was enough for us to jump in and do it.'
The Abbott Elementary episode aired in January, but the new season of It's Always Sunny will take the collaboration out of that family-friendly realm and drop it into the space of a more lawless sitcom. 'Our biggest concern is that people will watch Abbott and think, 'Oh, we like these characters. We like this episode. Let's go check out the other show with the whole family,'' McElhenney said. 'And we're going to caution people against that.'
Brunson added: 'I know [the Sunny cast] are not new faces or new talent, but I love showcasing talent to people. But this is the first time I'm gonna be like, 'Actually, don't go watch their show!' Unless you are already a fan of both shows, don't go looking for anything you don't need.'
