In the clip, we get a glimpse of the tone bump:
- Frank, played by the legendary Danny DeVito, sets the tone with a bold confession: “I can't wait to find a Grade A, prime‑cut piece of a**… to love.” Cue a perfect Sunny zoom and an even more perfect delivery
- Then, in typical Sunny fashion, Frank steps onto the bachelor stage, Palmer in tow, roses at the read, or maybe pencils, who knows?

But the real kicker? The Abbott crossover gone R-rated. In one hilarious moment, Charlie (Charlie Day) catches Frank mid‑mischief in a bathroom stall at Abbott Elementary, prompting an exasperated reaction from Quinta Brunson’s Janine. “Are you pissing in that locker?” “I drank so much coffee,” quips Frank.
Series co‑creator Rob McElhenney teases the crossover as “the same story… told now through the Sunny lens,” suggesting that fans will get a fresh, edgier take on familiar material. Charlie Day backs that up, promising “more R‑rated It’s Always Sunny‑style content” in their version—even extra footage that never aired on ABC’s Abbott Elementary.
When and where: Mark your calendars for July 9, 2025—Season 17 kicks off with two episodes on FXX, then lands on Hulu the next day.
TL;DR: Season 17 promises crossovers with a twist—Frank’s behind-the-scenes chaos on Abbott and a shameless Golden Bachelor parody—and the trailer confirms it’s going harder, raunchier, and funnier than ever.
