The sixth season of the American comedy television series It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia premiered on FX on September 16, 2010. The season contains 14 episodes and concluded airing on December 9, 2010 with the hour-long Christmas special (which was produced for season 5, however aired as part of season 6). An additional episode called "The Gang Gets Successful" (production code IP06004) was produced for this season, but was not aired, despite scenes from the episode being included in promotional material for season 6. It was later re-edited with new scenes to create the season 7 episode "How Mac Got Fat".
In this season, Mac fights against gay marriage after he discovers that Carmen (the transwoman he secretly dated in "Mac Is a Serial Killer" and first met in "Charlie Has Cancer") has had gender reassignment surgery and gotten married to someone else. Meanwhile, Dennis marries an old friend—then quickly divorces her and gets stuck with paying exorbitant alimony, and Charlie and Frank decide to exploit gay marriage by getting married themselves for benefits, only to find it a waste of time.
Later, the gang decides to buy a boat with the money made from their merchandise in "Paddy's Pub: Home of the Original Kitten Mittens," but, as usual, everything goes wrong. When a heat wave hits Philadelphia, Mac and Charlie restore an abandoned pool while Frank wreaks havoc at a public pool, and Dee and Dennis are accused of being "white trash" while trying to get a membership at a country club pool.
This season also sees Dee becoming pregnant and every male panicking over who could be the possible father (with the surprise revealed to be Carmen at the end of the season), Charlie finally getting the respect he deserves during a scheme to throw a surprise party for him, and the gang getting lost in the woods on the way to Atlantic City. The gang also puts a cynical spin on Christmas when it is discovered that all of their treasured memories of the holidays were masking the debauched events that happened around that time as well.
