Shameless (2011–2021)
7/10
Good show should have ended years ago

Warning: Spoilers
This is one of those shows that really did start out as a very good show but sort of lost its steam around the fifth season and definitely once Fiona left the show. Maybe when the kids were young the antics they pulled were still cute but as they aged the felonies they committed felt more like felonies. Or maybe it was that none of them ever was allowed to get ahead for long. Whatever small steps ahead they took always came back to bite them and not just set them back to zero but even lower then that. That kind of stories gets tiresome eventually.

That all being said this is a decent drama/comedy/dramedy and worth watching. The acting is fantastic by everyone and it has o e of the longest and realistic gay storylines I have seen between Ian and Mickey. It also dabbled a lot with Debbie and her sexuality later in the series which is interesting to watch.

If you haven't watched it yet watch at least the first four of five seasons. They are worth the time. The rest depends on your point of view and sensibilities.
