Dennis Reynolds: The Broken Character
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- Let's do another character analysis. But this time let's look at the character of Dennis Reynolds from Always Sunny in Philadelphia. This character, the golden god, feels like he's constantly about to snap in some way and that's part of what makes him such a fun character.

How rich or how poor is Eustace Bagge from Courage the cowardly dog please
How broke is Buffy from Buffy the Vampire Slayer in season 6
How broke is joeb from arrested development?
You have to talk about Trundle
Nothing.
I WOULD ask everyone here if Dennis is their favorite character but why bother..you’re not gonna say no, you would never say no…because of the implication.
You had me going for the first part, but that last part threw me a bit. What’s the implication?
That seems a little dark... are you gonna hurt these viewers?
@@imchipjames You're misunderstanding. If the viewers said no, then the answer is obviously no...but they wouldn't say no...because of the implication.
@@cyirens5037 ……you said that word again. It sounds like you’re going to hurt these viewers
@@PwnageofNoobs I feel like you're not getting this at all
I think the evolution of Dennis is the most natural. He’s a narcissist who has gone from his 20s to his 40s now, and as affirmation of his delusions (aka hooking up with women) comes less frequently, he simply begins to spiral deeper into insecure vengeance.
Yeah, Dennis is becoming more aware of the gap between who he really is and who thinks he is as he gets older and he's getting more extreme as a result trying to fight it.
Beautiful write up
Yeah this guy really glossed over the last 3 or 4 seasons where that becomes more clear. You said what I wanted to say, but more better. It's like this Jabroni has never watched Dee Day, PTSDee, or Dee Made a Smut Film. (Lol all having a bird in the title threw him off)
Nah, his outbursts and general dialogue read more like some asshole pretending to be insane than an aging narcissist. His narcissism was funny and natural, but became flanderized (like all sunny characters) by season 10 or 11
@@ThorGuitarCovers You’re right, the sociopathic narcissist should probably act like a normal person in a show where the characters have acted unimaginably excessive since pretending to be disabled in public in Season 2. Good take guy. Are there any episodes of this show that you like?
Glenn Howerton was once asked in an interview why his character, Dennis Reynolds, has a completely different name from him while Charlie Day plays a character named Charlie and Rob McElheny plays a character named Mac. Howerton replied that it’s because in real life he wants as little to do with Dennis Reynolds as possible. With that being said the last episode will probobly be “Dennis Kills the Gang".
I think I've seen this comment word for word on another video
hopefully
The best is Charlie’s comment about how it’s confusing if Dolph Lundgren has a different name in their “smelling crimes movie,” essentially jabbing Glenn, albeit subtly.
That was when he was on the Kevin Pollack Chat Show I think. That was a great interview. Like 10 years ago now..
If you watch the new podcast they started, glenn truly is dennis
the pictures he uses for Dee 😭😂💔
You look…like a bird!
Makes me think of Mac's flashback to the party where Dee claimed one of them to be the father. Even more hilarious is Kaitlin Olson voicing the ostrich in the bathroom talking to Mac.
I'm dying!
What are you talking about, Dee’s just in her Halloween costume
Oh hey dee
one of the only cases where flanderization works well. Going completely off the rails as a psychopathic narcissist is actually very realistic
Yeah considering season 1 is where their lives start to get weird (I think) it makes sense that dennis and the whole gang is slowly falling into their archetypes
I mean their lives were always weird, but it got considerably worse as the show progressed especially after Frank got involved. But remember he was weird back in highschool, and wasn’t nearly as popular as he thought. He had for example already took pictures of his balls in cricket’s mouth and uploaded them to the internet. All the stuff with crows. Dee set her college roommate on fire. Mac was a weed dealer in highschool, Charlie did humiliating things for his bully’s pleasure, etc
@@horrorhistory7342 id argue that, well they were already off the rails, Frank joining and bankrolling every ridiculous scheme they come up with has pushed them to levels of weird they never would have got to otherwise. Which IMO is one of the funniest aspects of this show. I’m a man-cheetah!
It's explained that Charlie burns garbage in the furnace below Paddy's Pub to suffocate the rats that live in the basement, but it's implied that the fumes are effecting their mental states and making them even more delusional.
Dennis making himself go down on himself is one of the most insane scenes in TV history. I pissed myself crying when I saw it the first couple times.
“develops an eating disorder for a few days” more like the rest of the series
was thinking this same thing. Mr "i don't eat lunch most days, and on odd days, i don't eat breakfast" reynolds with dehydration, vitamin deficiencies, and refusing to eat gluten carbs and sugar absolutely has AN, or at least EDNOS
Dennis being my favorite character makes me think I'm insane.
Honestly don't think about the implications of liking Dennis the most
You Are.
As long as you don't relate to him, look up to him or aspire to be more like him, you're probably okay
He's just the funniest. We're not crazy
He's definitely the most relatable character.
I'm not sure you get the point. All these characters are supposed to get worse, its an anti-sitcom. That's the whole point. Dennis is aging and he's getting more narcissistic. He's not broken, he's following the beautiful formula of Always Sunny.
i started to worry when he started talking about them worming their way into our hearts and then he said flanderization and made it clear that he completely missed the boat
Yeah, there's a huge thing here about trying to analyse singular dynamics in the show, because it is as you said, it's an "anti-sitcom". There's no need for a large level of latent continuity, because successfully writing a good joke takes more priority than properly maintaining a dynamic, nulling the actual subservience to the continuity.
This can be seen in different episodes with all of the characters. Mainly in respect to their mentality and intelligence with 3 of them, dennis, Frank and Charlie. At certain points they range to utterly idiotic and largely delusional, uneducated or basically senile, and yet when the narrative of the episode calls for it, sometimes they're geniuses with perfect knowlegde of human character, manipulating people and generally horrifyingly competent. Dennis himself is a perfect example of where the importance continuity is superseded by the narrative humour. In the first to third seasons it's shown very conclusively that Dennis was in fact quite popular in school and also fairly stable and active in his lifestyle of having affairs with women and generally being a leader of the gang. By the highschool reunion it's revealed that Dennis was never actually popular and was always a bit of a freak, is this because he was actually always delusional and a bit of a psycho? No, it's very obviously because it made for a good joke.
And that is what's so great about IASIP, the show isn't molder or written around the progression of the characters, the characters serve to drive the abject and no holds barred humour and story of each individual episode.
It still is Flanderization. Flanderization isn't always negative, most people would agree over-religious Flanders is better than midly religious well-off Flanders.
Hey bud, the video you’re asking for is, why is Dennis a scumbag and the gang continually getting worse?
Then all he says is well it’s because it’s a tv show and that’s how they wrote it…
He is analyzing the characters and how the NARRATIVE affects them and makes them worse. He gets it, he is showing us HOW the writers took these characters there.
Yeah all the characters have gotten much worse/exaggerated than when they started.
Im not ALLOWED TO EAT THE SKIN, DEE!!! IM NOT ALLOWED!!!!!
there are different forms of narcissistic personality disorder. dennis’ “vulnerable moments” is his narcissism focusing on his own flaws. he still is self obsessive.
I think that narcissistic personality disorder is all about self hating tho
Totoally. The self-loathing narcissist is the one I come across most in life, as counterintuitive as it may seem at first.
I always saw Dee as the straight man originally. Dennis was always narcissistic. Dee didn’t have the weird insecurities like the rest of them. I chalk that up to the fact that they didn’t know how to write for a woman which Kaitlin Olsen has stated about her character in the first season.
i feel the same way; i always felt like dee was more of a straight man because dennis’ narcissism was present from the beginning, at least to a certain extent.
It has been confirmed that they were trying to write Dee as a straight man originally because they didn’t know how to write women, but Kaitlin Olsen went against it, wanting her character to be as crazy as the gang. Also, I don’t think there is a singular straight man for the series, it’s more like they use what character they feel would best fit a straight man for a given scene or episode. The only time there isn’t a member of the gang acting as a straight man is when there’s a side character involved.
Despite being the weirdest dude in the show Charlie is kinda the straight man of the show, which yes I’m aware that’s counter intuitive but it’s there
He’s not broken… it’s just the IMPLICATION.
@Lee *The
The damn lightning makes it seem sinister!
I think you’re using the word wrong
Here me out y’all. The catalyst was then Dee ripped his stuffed bears head off. He said he wasn’t phased but then turned around and you could see a noticeable change and his iconic sigh haha. I believe it’s the episode Dee and Denis rob their moms house.
The man has to have his tools...
I like to bind and be bound!
Dennis and Jeff from Community seem to have the same effect on their gangs 😂 in the episode remedial chaos theory of community they show the possibility of what happens to the group when jeff leaves them and it is the best scenario out of all of them.
Right haha I love how they take the “Fred from Scooby Doo” leader archetype and use it to be abusive sociopaths towards the VERY FEW people who actually respect them instead of being right-hearted leaders of the gang
I love when Dee gives birth and Dennis is so concerned about the TV not working in her room. It just shows that he does love her deep down.
I think we relate to the Gang because we all have the impulse to yell random insults, or drink a bunch of beer, or whatever. They're just that side of us unbound from empathy or social order.
never let someones resistance stop you from getting what you want - mac quoting dennis
Considering they’ve signed on for 4 more seasons I think we aren’t really waiting for him to separate entirely but I like what you are getting at. If the season finale of last season(before the last 2 minutes) taught us anything it’s that they can write an exceptional ending and when they do end it we will be satisfied
I hope it doesn’t end really.. like I hope the camera just cuts off and doesn’t follow the gang into Paddy’s Pub as they go off on another scheme filled adventure.
@@smac919 or Dennis just kills everyone 😂. But seriously it’s just going to end when Danny DeVito dies
I feel that in shows most characters become caricatures of themselves with no valid reason. In Always Sunny we’re given reasons why they slip further into these archetypes. Franks been slumming it. Charlie huffs glue. They all continue to hangout with each other.
Plus they're all alcoholics and Frank is getting more and more senile.
I see it like Married with children; they started out similar to other shows and characters, but if you were to jump seasons later you'd get whiplash. But watching it, it moves pretty seamlessly.
He’s still often the voice of reason
Reason will prevail
@@caseycarpenter303 You don't have to say that every time
You fool, he hasn't even peaked. He hasn't begun to peak
I’m here still wondering why was Frank stuck in that coil
It's probably a sex thing
He went down there to pound off in the night time.
If here by now, then bad place be. Trouble time for you when he comes.
I still wonder that too. He never explained WHY he was in the coil in the playground.
The man in the coil!
This is great as a lover of character arcs and major fan of the show. Respectfully I disagree with the gang hinging on Dennis. A key point to this is where we diverge at 7:48. Charlie and frank have a “strange” connection that supersedes Dennis. This is especially evident during CharDeeMacDennis. In reality, Dennis recognizes it’s his own little bubble of influence that once he gets outside, he fears losing the only control he had. Case and point is the reunion, it’s not until there we get glimpse of the golden god and how it’s mostly his facade. Also the only overt codependency reference of the show. When dee breaks mac and Dennis’ world causing them to “break up”. It’s later in their arcs and Dennis still “isn’t allowed to eat apple seeds” bc mac said so. To me it always felt like a position of weakness not strength. It’s an insecure white knuckling of a small amount of power he knows he’ll never have ever again anywhere else. All unveiled in the image you show with his makeup off when he’s genuinely uncomfortable to the point I had to turn the episode off haha.
I'd actually argue the flanderization not only applies to *all* of the characters (Frank included, despite being mostly consistent after he drops all pretenses of normalcy), but is *intentional* by the writers to show how far off the deep end they're getting as they get older. Dennis in particular is feeling the weight of getting older and, in his mind, becoming less attractive and more fragile, which drives his ego to compensate through delusion and reinforcing his need to believe that he is this "Golden God" he believes others think of him as.
Plus it makes for more ridiculous scenarios when these characters are so disconnected from reality and how they interact with the normal world as a result.
I do miss the old Sunny, particularly before the latest two seasons, but you can never go home again. We have what we have and I'm not unhappy with it. My biggest fear is how the show will end. I don't even know what I would find to be a satisfying finale for a show like this. Seinfeld was sort of similar in a way and I *hated* its ending, yet no one is more deserving of jail-time than the gang, and yet I doubt I'd enjoy that here, either.
Also one thing that annoys me about Dennis lately is that he's just *awful* with women. He got a bit of his mojo back with manipulating the _gang_ but he still only ever seems to strike out with women, whereas before he was so good at manipulation he got a hippy to tie himself to a tree through a storm while he banged the guy's girlfriend from the comfort of his bed.
Not that I want to see Dennis *win* because... well he's awful, even if it is satisfying to see him come out on top over a guy who's nearly as awful in his own way, but it also feels wrong to make Dennis so incompetent with women when, even if for the wrong reasons, he's supposed to be the group's most skilled womanizer. It's understandable that when his ego is bruised he starts to flail, or when he's hilariously unable to cope with a certain reporter's enormous breasts and becomes a blubbering schoolboy, but we see that a little *too much* in the later seasons and not enough of his skill. Until like the last episode the last season, we only even saw Dennis skillfully manipulating the group really *one time.* And even that failed in the end, though that's fine, the group is chaotic.
I don’t think it’s flanderization and more the fact that the character becomes addicted to crack
Dennis is my favorite character, he should've played the ted bundy role
I don’t think you watched the same show as me. There’s literally an entire episode in the first season where Dennis is a serial killer. He also gets hooked on crack in the first season and tries to sell a human baby. When was he not a sociopath? Like any untreated mental illness, they get worse over time.
If you listen to the Sunny podcast, you’d see that everyone, ESPECIALLY frank, going downhill is intentional. Rewatch season two and you’ll realize that that’s the joke with frank… that he was a normal, if not insane, business man who finally reached the age where he didn’t want to pretend to be normal anymore.
Dennis has long been my favourite character. Part of the reason is Glenn really sells the sh out of him, plus he's super charismatic on-screen( not unlike every other member of the gang), but the bigger part is that a complex and nuanced yet very funny and entertaining straight up villain is always the best part of every film or series, if done right. We want to see bad people on-screen, and with every layer of their fucked up nature being peeled off we get more and more curious.
Man, how did / do they write such brilliantly-complex, well-developed characters, all within the context of such absolutely hilarious scenarios and dialogue? Genius.
I believe that Dennis "snapped" when Dee ripped the head off of his childhood toy, Mr Tibbs.
My favorite character. Would be a truly terrifying human being to be around, if he existed.
Fun Fact: When asked why he chose not to use his own name as the character name, Glenn Howerton said (paraphrasing) that he did it to separate him from the character he plays, because of the horrible things his character says/does.
Just started rewatching this series and just relived my appreciation for the entire cast but particularly Glenn.
I think season 6-8 were some of Glenn’s best Dennis moments.
100% best character in my opinion.
@@charliemac2632 Charlie and Frank are my favorites, but Dennis is the best character
I'm not sure you understand how people tend to change as they mature. In my 40 years I've seen it countless times and typically, people just become more of what they already were when they were young, especially the transition from 20s to 40s. People just seem to dive deeper into whatever pool they were swimming in during their 20s. Forget 10 months later, when you're in your mid to late 20s or whatever you'll see it too. As you age over those 10 years I'll bet dollars to donuts you'll look back at your sentiments in this video and think of them a little differently....
I had a feeling we'd get to the point where Dennis has been giving us the D.E.N.N.I.S. system treatment the whole series.
I was devastated when he left the gang. Glad he’s back !
Largely harmless: tries to kill dee in a covid fever in season 15
Dennis is my favorite character of all time.
Dennis hasn't begun to peak.
Honestly I don't think Dennis is an example of Flanderization at all. He's still evidently insecure and it's brought up throughout the show. Constantly overcompensating both in action and vocally, using over the top measures like makeup, diet supplements and such, and putting so much stock in his public rating and popularity that it takes a physical and emotional toll on him are all ways he externally demonstrates his internal insecurities. He also is devolving into the creepy psychopath he hid under the straight man persona his whole life, or at least attempted to hide. In recent seasons it showed him as a teen still very much the straight man, clearly showing his character change as a growth into his more deviant ways and desires, versus lazy writing. Dennis is a criticism of real men like him, the way they lure people in with false personas that fade overtime. His over the top antics can also be attributed to his friends all being enablers, his success in not getting caught in his crimes, and the power he believes he wields over others after committing these crimes and manipulating the people.arpund him his whole life. I do understand your interpretation of it, but I would say it may be an over simplification of how emotional turmoil can be portrayed in a character, his defensive form of vulnerability is more aligned to the type of person he is. Dee shares similar defensive traits, but without the extremeness of her brother she also has her sad vulnerable moments that are more in tune with the type you are talking about. But that's just how I feel
Fantastic analysis! Especially the last part about the DENNIS System!
The crazy part is that Dennis is clearly the most intelligent member of the gang, which also makes him the voice of reason and the de facto leader.
It feels like Dennis wrote this
Frank is BY FAR the most intelligent. Dennis is definitely very intelligent, but he's also very incompetent, whereas Frank is orders of magnitude more smarter and can be highly competent when he wants to be. I don't disagree that Dennis is the de facto leader though. He is the brains of this operation, after all.
Flanderization is a result of needing to keep telling jokes and put on a show after countless jokes and shows. It happens in real life too, people often become characters of their personality
You don’t get it. Dennis is perfect
Hes a 5 star man!
IASIP should consider a Batman episode. Dennis is Joker, Frank is Penguin, Dee is Catwoman, Mac is two face and Charlie is Bat or should I say Ratman / Dayman 😅
Frank has already been the penguin...
@@josiahsophia8938 exactly
I don’t want to make Dennis angry. Well I know he won’t because of the implication.
In season 9, during the Psycho Pete episode, Dennis gets 'Petes meds' after his hand luggage and diced into cubes scene towards Dee to which he says they're for Borderline personality disorder and Dee says "Wellz that's how you get diagnosed Dennis". It's brushed off so easily but I love it
Dennis kinda winds up parodying the "straight man" in sitcoms. Think of Ted Mosby from How I Met Your Mother. He continually talks about how good of a guy he is and doesn't understand when he strikes out with women, he holds himself above the people around him and is integral to holding the group together. Same with Ross Geller from friends, while maybe not integral to holding everyone together he has this heightened sense of self and entitlement to women's attraction to him. Dennis is just an extreme version of the Straight Man, he is what would happen if the Straight Man of any comedy show had to keep putting up with whatever is going on in his comedy universe without any end in sight. If Ted Moseby never met his wife, if Ross Geller didn't marry Rachel, if both these straight men continued in that stagnant part of the sitcom where they need to keep having relationships and break ups and bizarre scenarios and never reached the conclusion maybe they would've turned out like Dennis (if the writers were more adventurous of course).
“I LIKE TO BIND. I LIKE TO B E BOUND”
They get worse on purpose. That’s the point. They’re all terrible and they feed each other’s terribleness.
Couldn't you say that Flanderization is how someone would actually become crazy in real life? The slide into insanity is a slow descent, and you usually start out "kind of normal with some weird quirks"
It sucks that you can't talk about stuff without getting demonetized, TH-cam has really devolved into something sad
season 1 is where their lives start to get weird (I think) it makes sense that dennis and the whole gang is slowly falling into their archetypes
If you're still doing them I wouldn't mind seeing an appraisal of Fraiser Crane's net worth.
The fact that Dennis Reynolds is in the tittle should be content warning enough
Dennis is the best example of Solipsism
Americans are the only ones who want their characters to be redeemable. That's why I prefer british sitcoms and I only rewatch Arrested Development and Sunny.
It’s good that these guys are only “hopefully” and “arguably” redeemable. This is the best live-action comedy series alive
People are too sensitive though, it could never get made today.
@@pheenmachine but… but it is made today… are you ok?
I'm making fun of people that say that . I'm fine.
You should watch Seinfeld too. Same idea, they’re all terrible people
My guess is that Dennis was a fan of Led Zeppelin or at least read about and old Rolling stone interview with Robert Plant in which he stated he was a golden god in 1975 which was then immortalized in the movie almost famous, however that movie came out in 2000 which would have been after Dennis graduated high school probably in 1994 based on the characters birth year. In the class reunion episode we find out Dennis would run around the school referring to himself as a golden god and everyone else were his minions. Thus we can safely assume that he was taking on the persona based on Robert Plant’s popularization of the phrase.
Dennis was more calm in the latest season. looking forward to see what they do with that.
What a way to build up an ending. Point after point and boom!
He kept the dossiers, and then went to an ivy league school to be trained in psychology. Fantastic 😆
Would love an analysis of the actually broken and buried character.
Dee is the best written funny female character I've ever seen and Kaitlin nails it so damn good .
Dennis is my favorite character. I think mainly on how well his character developed and how well Glenn does portraying Dennis. I love this show so fucking much
What’s wrong with having weird tools in a secret compartment in your car?
Mid life crisis hits narcissists especially hard
It took me so long to get into Always Sunny. Not sure what kept me watching through the distaste and disgust but there was a point where I was like . . . Ohhh. . . now I get it, this is really funny! Such awful humans but I love them all😂
Like the addition of "the useless goddess" in ur transition lol 2:54
It’s a dumb joke
The boys are out tonight, huh!
The stills of Ostriches when talking about Dee is a nice touch.
P.s. that's not what a god complex is edit- at least not really. He is very shakable. He wears that on his sleeve
I don't like when people say Dennis is a sociopath. He's an awful person, but he has very big and vulnerable feelings/insecurities that he channels in the worst possible ways.
Hey man that was a really good video. Very clear and concise but most important that you're a fan of the show and it shows.
It's bizzaro Seinfeld with Devito playing a mix of Newman and George's Dad bizzaro
Great video, Dennis is my favorite on the show and this was nice to see lol.
1:49 Dennis is absolutely a serial killer though lmao, the average age at which a serial killer even STARTS murdering people is like, 28. That fits perfectly w: the show’s run time
Showing a pic of an ostrich instead off dee just won you brownie points for the day
That fucking ending. I love it! I totally think that's how he would want to write it.
The suburb episode is one of my favorites simply just for the part were Dennis is calling someone a fat pig in traffic
of course Denies was going to come back, he only left because he was flooded with emotions when he healed his kid. Dennis didnt really want to be a family man, hes just a slave to his emotions.
Dennis is an emotionally unavailable guy who lives for his next hook up, that's why his looks are so important to him. not for a second did i think he would be gone for good (unless the actor had to leave the show for some reason)
i know this must be obvious but i just felt like doing it.
no matter how LoGiCAL you think you are emotions are influencing you and the more you dennie them the harder they will hit when they finally do so why not do this instead of bottling it up and exploding on some idiot who cuts me off or some asshole in the express check out with a cart full of stuff
oh god i hope no one sees this 😅
Sunny vids = Best vids
I think you missed it.. i may be wrong but what I always thought was dennis fit in as the self proclaimed leader of the group. In his own way I think he believes his heart is in the right place as well by always trying to lead them. Even though he has no business leading anyone he himself still sees it as him guiding them. You see that in his relationship with Charlie trying to bribe him with treats and what not to stay on track with whatever he thinks is right. And with mac trying to medicate his disorders even tho he has no idea how to he still thinks it's the right thing to do.
dennis' ego cracks every few episodes
Just when I started rewatching old episodes
More always sunny please! Love your video format!
Glad you enjoyed the video! I’d love to talk more about Always Sunny in the future
This show has tought me what it feels to get old
You totally missed his Valentine’s Day meltdown
I hope they make him actually become a serial killer at the end. or that they all go to jail for everything they've done, and it turns out Dennis has killed a few people.
"At least their hearts aren't necessarily in the wrong place, sometimes." --> Haha really reaching there!
you could simply argue that the influence of crack and alcohol have exacerbated their mental state.
Dennis Reynolds: The Bastard Man
Dennis is the funniest in my opinion
The ostrich pic was a nice touch.
Always sunny has to end with Dennis snapping and finally killing someone, probably dee
these characters are not seeking help for their mental illnesses & personality disorders so obviously it's gonna get worse and worse as time goes on
I mean, either they think they're better than everyone else or complacent in their life and go psychotic when their world view is challenged. They are repeatedly called "awful and deplorable sociopaths" and refuse to change after. Why change when you think you're already perfect
His perfomances are very super watchable. If dennis isnt a guilty pleasure of yours, you are not even a golden pawn.
Broken? His body was sculptured after Michaelangelo's David cast in gold and given life by Zeus himself, his body never ages (gold doesn't rust) he simply rises higher and higher surpassing Icarus and into the golden sun giving his perfect tan which is perfect and not deathly pale.
Glenn Howerton doing a voice on Velma is way worse than anything Dennis ever did.
