What do I think of Shameless (2011)?
First few seasons were good. Then it fell off a cliff. Didn't help when the jewess got canned cause she wanted a bigger contract.
>>219379789Genuinely some of the best acting in TV history imo, but mostly from Joan Cusak and William H during seasons 1 and 2. Emmy Rossum does a pretty good job holding it all together over the course of the series, and Jeremy Allen White really grows as the series progresses and starts to take over in the later seasons. The actors do a ton of heavy lifting for what could otherwise be construed as sheer silliness.It's the kind of show where the overbearing sense of depravity isn't even a crutch, it's intentionally over-the-top to the point that it all kinda folds back on itself. The most fucked scenarios start to just feel normal. Ends up being sort of like a soap opera about crusty inner-city hi-jinx.Falls off completely in the last 2 seasons or so.
>>219381811what was bad about it? I stopped watching around when Ian turned bipolar.
>>219379789We only watched it for /ourjewgirl/
>>219381511she dropped out for the same reason the one guy from misfits left the show >i'm a huge actor now and i don't need this show anymore>career tanks
>>219379789It should have ended at the funeral. Everything beyond that was retarded.
should have ended in season 4, indeed the season finale was perfect
>>219379789>set up an incredible story of a family that is lovable and has a ton of potential to succeed despite their upbringing >halfway through have them all reach the cusp of happiness, leaving the house and getting a glimpse of success in the real world >crash it down to nothing in the last season, make them all insufferable assholes who shit on all their own progress>everyone ends up living miles below their potential, acting like entitled assholes, likely going to die from drugs and alcohol >Frank gets the last laugh>also make covid and tranny propaganda define your series finale Lordy it was a bad ending.
The ending Carl deserved
I had to stop watching, Lip turned into such a massive faggot that I can't stand the actor in anything and it was all the same cycle of characters fucking up their own lives and crying about itThe thing that finally broke me was Carl "accidentally" ordering the murder of his clingy ex-girlfriend and going WHOOPSIE onto the next storyline! Another wacky adventure for the Gallagher family awaits!
>>219382955Yeah Lip was the second worse character, second to Debbie. But lip had a lot of screen time and wasted so much set up. Carls gf side story was funny desu. It was clearly a lazy way of moving on from the crazy girl.
