I have been waiting for.
FX has been showing commercials for 'Kitten Mittens' before season five even began and last night, we finally got to see Charlie's invention. Not only was Charlie's impression of a TV salesperson hilarious, but I could actually see cat-lovers lining up to buy this product, if it really existed -- patent pending.
Fl 12 vs 20. In this episode, Charlie tells the rest of the gang how he is going to try and find a financier for the 'Kitten Mittens' at the Merchandising Convention. Dennis, Mac and Frank decide to jump on the invention bandwagon and come up with some of their own merchandising ideas for
Throughout the episode we are introduced to a laundry list of ideas, including:
1. Kitten Mittens
2. Paddy's Thong
3. Dick Towel
4. Paddy's Shot Gun
5. Paddy's Stress Ball
6. Nudey Pen
Aside from the Kitten Mittens, the Dick Towel was my favorite. Mac designs a bath towel that has three different states of undress drawn on the folds of the towel. As he says in the commercial for the product: 'It's funny, functional and sexual! Get yours today, bro!'
The gang ends up in a lawyer's office, the same lawyer whom Charlie challenged to a dual in

The lawyer gets even with the gang in the end and none of their inventions make it past the Merchandising Convention.

Some of my favorite lines from last night's episode:
1. 'Is your cat making too much noise? Think there's no answer? You're so stupid … there is! Kitten Mittens!'
Charlie's TV commercial for Kitten Mittens
2. 'So this is your plan. You're going to go into the convention waving a gun in people's faces, throwing tequila in everybody's eyes with a big-titted woman?'
Mac questioning Frank's plan to 'sell' the Paddy's Shot Gun
3. 'You just can not blast water out of a gun. The technology is just not there.'

The fifth season of the American comedy television series It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia premiered on FX on September 17, 2009. The season contains 12 episodes and concluded airing on December 10, 2009. Beginning with this season, the episode's aspect ratio was changed from 4:3 to 16:9.
Season synopsis[edit]
This season sees the gang tackling the global recession in their own selfish, clueless ways, by exploiting the mortgage crisis and taking advantage of the nouveau pauvre homeless people living outside the bar thanks to the 2008 recession to growing the bar's brand by selling merchandise. The gang also follow up on last season's musical episode by putting on a wrestling show for American troops stationed in Afghanistan and Iraq, with Frank also dresses up as a trash man for his wrestling-for-the-troops persona.
In their dating lives, The Waitress announces her upcoming wedding, which sends Dee into a panic while Mac and Dennis introduce Charlie to online dating to get his mind off the fact that his days of stalking The Waitress are over once she says, 'I do.' Dennis introduces the gang to his manipulative guide to scoring with women, while Dee has an online relationship with a soldier who turns out to be a wheelchair user.
This season also sees Frank becoming more self-destructive and worried over his mortality: becomes a slobbering drunk, attempts to hang himself after losing all his money, has sex with Artemis (the strange actress from Sweet Dee's acting class), and tries to sleep with the same women as Dennis..after Mac has had his shot at them. The gang then decide to take a trip to the Grand Canyon as part of an item on Frank's bucket list—but the trip ends before it can begin after several unfortunate events. The gang then gets their taste of Hollywood stardom when M. Night Shyamalan films his latest movie in Philadelphia, wreak havoc at the World Series, and reignite a rivalry started ten years ago at a popular drinking contest. Classic family feud questions.
