Has anyone watched this? Im not sure how i stumbled upon this show, but I did, and I pretty much binged watched 4 seasons in two weeks. Its insanely good.
its about a family and their friends/neighborhood who are poor and live in a slum and how they get by. dealing with school, drugs, alcohol dead beat alcoholic parents who arent there. Really good characters and written well, plus lots of boobs. Its based on the UK version, but from what I have read on reddit, the US is a whole heap better.
I highly recommend.

Re: Shameless US
I couldn't stand the UK version so steered clear of this one.

Re: Shameless US
As above, found the US one more to my liking.
William H. Macy top notch.

I have a joke for you. I have a prediction that you are going to walk into a bar, my prediction was wrong and your wallet is gone.

I agree, he makes the show. His portrayal of an alcoholic is pretty damn good.wobblysauce wrote:As above, found the US one more to my liking.

Thanks for the heads up Neil, watched the first few episodes of S1 and I'm hooked. Time to binge 4 seasons of it to catch up.
