It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is an awesome show, so it was good to hear Season 3 will be out on DVD this September. Hopefully the beginning of Season 4 will coincide with that.

Aside from all of that, the creators of the show (Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day and Glenn Howerton) are going to start shooting a show for Fox called "Boldly Going Nowhere" in October, which Variety claimed would give them enough time to finish shooting Season 4 of Always Sunny. So there's more indication that Always Sunny will be back soon. Regarding the new show (with my bolded emphasis):

The single-camera half-hour is a high-concept laffer set in the future and focused on the mundane world of a spaceship captain when he's not on a mission. Fox has ordered five additional scripts beyond the pilot.

"We grew up watching shows like 'Star Trek,' anything having to do with the future, and it was always about the adventures they'd go on," McElhenney said. "We thought it would be funny to watch what goes on in between those adventures, when they're waiting for the next big thing to happen. How do they keep themselves busy?"

Pilot is based on an idea that came from "Sunny" writers' assistant Adam Stein; as a result, Stein will get a "written and created by" credit alongside the "Sunny" guys. McElhenney, Day and Howerton are also set to exec produce, along with Michael Rotenberg and Nick Frenkel; RCG, and 3 Arts will produce with 20th Century Fox TV.

"I wish it was less rare that when you get a comedy script, you laugh out loud," said Fox Entertainment prexy Kevin Reilly. "This really felt like a bull's-eye for Fox. It's a concept I've seen developed before badly, many times. These guys nailed it."

Unlike "Sunny," the trio don't plan to star in "Boldly Going Nowhere," which they said will contain characters that greatly vary in age, sex and race.

McElhenney, Day and Howerton -- who christened their company RCG, after the first letters in their first names -- began talking to 20th about a deal before the strike, but such a pact was put on hold during the work stoppage. After the strike was over, "We sat down and wrote the script in two or three days," McElhenney said. "As soon as it was done, we told 20th we had a script idea and asked 20th if the deal was still available, and they said yes."

McElhenney said signing on with 20th also helped avoid any logistical problems in continuing with "Sunny," since that show airs on a fellow News Corp. property. The next 13-episode season of "Sunny" will be shot this summer for a fall bow.

"We didn't want to step on anyone's toes or shoot ourselves in the foot for neglecting our duties on 'Sunny,'" he said. "It's what got us here in the first place, we're proud of it, and our faces are all over it."

It's definitely awesome to see they're not ready to neglect Sunny, and this new show means more of their humor on TV which is great. I'm really interested to see how much they try to do within the constraints of a major broadcast network, compared to the incredible freedom they have on FX with Sunny to be able to swear, make drug/sex references, etc.
