Dh and I are addicted to this Netflix show  We are about to start Season 4 ... It's definitely not safe for young people as there is a lot of swearing and nudity but it is so well acted  Debbie is my fav ... that girl is the best actress  Are you watching? |

I love Shameless and can't wait for the new season to start on Showtime. It's so hard to pick a favorite character. They are all so great.

Shelia is hilarious also. Oh and I love Kevin but all I keep seeing when I see his character is Van from Reba. Also Veronica aka V is great...I love the friendship her and Fiona have.

One of my faves! Can't wait for the next season. Lip is my favorite. I have a totally inappropriate old lady crush on him.

I love the show. Funny story- I'm a youth group leader and many of my students have brought school friends to our secular events and I've begun to recognize these kids by face but not by name. One night I'm at the gym doing my lifting and see a young girl, maybe 16-18, lifting across from me. She's incredibly familiar and after a few minutes trying to place her I make the assumption she's my student Maia's friend from school. I smile and give a quick wave figuring she also recognizes me and I don't want to be impolite. On my way home it hits me- that isn't Maia's friend. It's not any of my student's friends. It's DEBBIE. A quick Google search tells me that the actress does, in fact, live fifteen minutes from the gym we were at.  |

I loved Debbie in the early Seasons, but didn't love how her character changed through puberty. I've already admitted to an unhealthy crush on Frank and the only character I really don't want to see again is Steve/Jimmy. Love the whole dysfunctional family and their neighbors.  SaveSave |

Yes!!!! What a great job of casting! Just when I thought it couldn't get any raunchier, or Frank couldn't do anything lower, it happened! He's such a GREAT character. And Sheila cracks me up.

The UK version was great up to a point, I haven't seen the US version yet.

I watched it all on Netflix last winter, and then the latest season on Showtime. I can't wait for the next season on Showtime. I think it is the last season?
It just makes my family seem so ... good. LOL!

May have to try it again. Frank is a mess but William H. Macy is a brilliant actor in the role ... actually I believe that the entire cast is brilliant Even though Frank puts himself first over his kids those kids are so strong ... they are survivors The writing is so sharp ... I love the humour that is mixed in with the sadness ... |

Oh yes, it's one of our favorites. The characters are so interesting, and the story is tragic and funny at the same time. It's so well written and different, and the actors couldn't be more perfect for their parts.

I've heard so much about this show that I guess I'm going to have to watch it.
I just finished season one of Harlots on Hulu, and I loved that one.

I totally binge watched season one. Then I stopped because I thought DH might want to watch it with me. He is in the middle of his busy season at work so we haven't had a chance to watch together. I'm dying to know what happens.

Shameless is so much fun. Frank isn't even human. I'm excited to watch the season. I'll probably start my binge watch this week.

I think it's my favorite show ever. Sometimes I wonder how the heck they think up the storylines, it gets crazier and crazier.
