If you’re trying to watch It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, on Netflix here in New Zealand, unfortunately you won’t be able to find the show.
This is happening because NZ Netflix doesn’t have the rights to It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Therefore it isn’t on the library.
Fortunately there’s a very simple way you can watch It’s Always Sunny on NZ Netflix. All you need is NordVPN ($3.49/month).
This article will explain how to watch It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia on NZ Netflix.
How to watch It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia on NZ Netflix: Guide
-
Create an account with NordVPN ($3.49/month).
If you go on Netflix now, you’ll notice It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia isn’t on the library. This is because NZ Netflix doesn’t have the rights to broadcast the show.
Fortunately, UK Netflix does have the rights to broadcast the show. All you need to do is change your NZ Netflix to UK Netflix.
To do that you need a fast, reliable VPN that has servers in UK. Throughout our testing NordVPN ($3.49/month), was the VPN that made the process easy and worked seamlessly.

Connect to a UK server
To watch It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia you need to access the UK version of Netflix.
To do this you need to temporarily change your NZ IP address to a UK IP address. This will make Netflix think you’re connecting to it from within UK.
When you do this, you’ll be able to access the UK Netflix library and subsequently be able to watch It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
And don’t worry, if you want to change back to the NZ version of Netflix all you have to do is turn the VPN off, which takes only a mere few seconds.
Why do I need a VPN to watch It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia on Netflix?
The reason you need a VPN to watch It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia on Netflix is because the film isn’t available on New Zealand Netflix.
Confusingly, Netflix doesn’t have the rights to broadcast its content internationally, meaning not every country has the same content.
Think of each country as a different section of Netflix, Netflix US is different to Netflix NZ, Netflix NZ is different to Netflix Australia, Netflix Australia is different to Netflix UK and so on.
To broadcast a show or movie, a streaming service like Netflix needs to buy the rights to broadcast that content. If Netflix NZ wants to broadcast It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, it needs to buy the rights.
Unfortunately as you can probably already tell, NZ Netflix didn’t buy the rights to It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, that’s why it isn’t on the Netflix library.
But this isn’t a major problem because thankfully, Netflix UK brought the rights to It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
If you want to watch It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia on Netflix in NZ you can easily gain access of the UK version of the streaming platform by using NordVPN ($3.49/month).
Do all VPNs work?
Unfortunately, not every VPN will work. This is because Netflix tries to block VPNs from accessing its service.
It does this because of those same broadcast rights we mentioned above. If Netflix NZ broadcasts a TV series or a movie that it doesn’t have the rights to, in this case It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, it could be in a lot of trouble as it will have breached the copyright agreements it has.
A customer using a VPN to access UK Netflix in New Zealand could potentially result in Netflix being accused of breaching those rights. Subsequently it would be charged and fined.
To stop that from happening Netflix tries to stop VPNs from accessing its content.
What VPNs will work?
The VPNs that will allow you to watch It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia on Netflix in New Zealand are the ones that are able to get around Netflix’s VPN blocks.
The best VPN at this is NordVPN ($3.49/month).
I’ve been using Nord for years now and I’ve never had issues with it. It’s a popular, safe and reliable VPN with a 90-day money back guarantee policy that will allow you to test it before you commit to a longer subscription.
It’s an affordable VPN that has a dedicated customer service team and a 24/7 helpline you can call if you’re having issues.
If you want to watch It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia on Netflix in New Zealand, all you need is NordVPN ($3.49/month) it’s that easy.
