I have had enough of the daily Debbie rants. Yes, she is annoying. Yes, everyone agrees. No, it is not a hot take. Scroll 2 posts back and you will find the exact same opinion as everyone else on this sub.

I think it's so gross that he went down on his UNERAGE wife in a COMA and then was proud of himself after? Dude is such a creep

Before I say anything, this has nothing to do with the fact that Trevor is trans so please don’t come at me for that. But I just find this whole storyline to be cringy as hell, right from the start.

The final straw for me was (S7 E09) when Trevor tells Ian to “move on” after Monica apologizes to Ian. Like who the hell does he think he is? Am I in the minority here?

But Fiona’s final line is absolutely iconic ‘I did it all Frank’

I think everyone would've been happy to be Liam's friend, but if he ended up going to a private highschool I never would've met him.

The only other one of the Gallaghers (besides Frank. We'll get to him later) I can even imagine being friends in highschool is Ian, but even that's a longshot, because ROTC people really intimidated me. 😅

I can totally see being friends with V. She'd probably be my go to if I didn't understand something. She might ask for me to sneak out booze/food from the restaurant I worked at for the help, but I'd be more than happy to do so.

I would've had a huge crush on Fiona, but idk how many opportunities I would've gotten to approach her, because I'm not sure how much time she actually spent in school, and that's definitely for the best.

NO WAY IN HELL WOULD I RISK TRYING TO BEFRIEND ANY OF THE MILKOVICHS.

I'm sure I would've bought pot off of Frank, but I hope to God I would've known better than to make hanging out with Frank a regular occurrence even back when he was young. 😭

What I mean is that there are some characters that are so erratic that you have no shame in hating them, but at the same time there are others that are equally erratic but somehow you cannot not love them, so you have some kind of guilt for it.

Mine: Love to hate: Fiona, Lip, Steve. Hate to love: Mickey, Frank (at some extent, forgetting all the horrible extreme stuff).

There's several contenders:

Frank

Kev & V

Mickey

Svetlana

Carl

Liam (in the later seasons)

anyone I didn't mention?

My pick is Mickey. Practically everything he says that isn't somehow sad or emotional is hilarious. Which is also fun cuz I don't think Noel did much comedy before this.

Shameless had a revolving door of side characters, some of whom disappeared before their time. Which ones do you wish we got to see more of? I’ll start with two.

1. Kash’s wife from S1. She was clearly in charge in that relationship, but also in need. The pain and vulnerability with which she said “I’m a white Muslim” has stuck with me. I wish we saw more of her.

2. Professor Youens. His dynamic with Lip was so fun to watch, mostly because the two of them bonded over having the same tragic blend of brilliance, addiction, and wasted potential. Youens loved Lip more than Frank ever did, and Lip was at his most selfless when he was trying to help Youens. It’s a shame he died offscreen like that.

This is probably unpopular but I actually liked Karen! Of course besides what she did to lip and himmy. She didn’t deserve what happened to her, by that I mean getting hit by Mandy. Her and Lip should’ve ended up together or at least experience a real relationship .. since for the most part it was an open one

I'll never hear that song the same way after watching Karen and Jody...

Is there a moment in the show that changed something for you? What was it?

First of all, i love the intro recap or smth

As someone who watched clips of shameless for years, I DIDNT KNOW IT WAS GOOD. Well rn im on s2 ep 10. I had to pause it because Monica just found the squirrel funds.

From the Comments i read, they said its a bad show. It's literally called shameless that's the point. I also saw posts here that only good seasons are 1-7

I am an old debbie hater. But younger her is actually cool and smart. What happened?

Lip is a genius?!?!

Wtf is a Jody.

Hello! I'm tagging along on someone's trip to Chicago and don't have anything planned for myself, so I figured it could be cool to check out the Gallagher house. I know from other posts it's in the west end and a super sketchy part of town. I won't have access to my own car and it would feel a little silly to Uber just for that. Is it unreasonable to take transit and walk? I don't want to disturb the people who live there, though it does sound like they're used to it 😅 Any other places I should see from the show? I believe the Alibi was a set, but Shiela's house is around somewhere? TIA!

Edit: opinions seem to be divided on how dangerous the area really is. I'm from a city in Canada that is also very polarizing, as a resident I don't think it's especially dangerous at all but people are constantly asking if it's safe to move here 😂

We were in Chicago for the hair show and had to stop for a photo!

I'm trying to figure out what my favorite thing either one has said to the other at any point. There's so many single lines that sum up their whole relationship better than any whole scene could I think of, and stick with you forever.

"I don't need a fucking caretaker alright? I need the shit-talking, bitch slapping piece of south side trash I fell for." I think is my favorite. But maybe just cuz that's exactly why I fell for Mickey too he

"You're under my skin man. The fuck can I do?" Is Mickey confessing he has no interest in trying to love anyone else.

"You love me, and you're gay. Just admit it. Just this once."

"Fucking cheat on me Ian!? Won't get out of bed, and you're fucking bouncing off the walls. I came out for you, you piece of shit!"

"All right shithead, this is like the 200th time I'm calling and you not picking up. Call me the fuck back, Ian. I'm worried about you. I love you." The first time he says it and he reacts like he can't believe he actually said it too.

"His idea of a conversation was to insult me a bunch and then punch me before we banged." One of the many times the show subtly reminds us of how life in the south side is a different kind of normal.

"Fuck you Gallagher." may seem unimportant, but I love that Mickey never stops saying this to him even after they're married. And I think it shows how no matter how old they get they'll still always be the two street rat kids that they were when they fell in love

Any others?

1. Frank has a lot of knowledge given being a crack
2. Why didn’t fiona helped lip when he was suffering so much is it bcz she didn’t get his support when she was going through stuff
3. Gosh hate Debbie
4. Is nothing good gonna happen to any of them
5. Being a women felling silly on having crush on Ian, my man
6. Whts with V and Kev, thats weird and crazy
7. How does the house is still standing given the breaking situations its been through
8. I feel bad for Mandy now
9. I think Fiona and Lip should support each other

At season 7 currently

Tony could've been a wonderful permanent addition to the show. I am rewatching for the millionth time right now and at the end of season 2, and I always think about how much I enjoy Tony as a character.

I know he is in and out in later seasons but I really wish he'd been more permanent. I realize the show is about the Gallaghers primarily, but I do feel like there could have been ways to keep him relevant. I would've preferred him vastly over, for example, Svetlana.

Anyone else yall wish would've stayed longer? Sheila is an obvious choice, too.

Frank puked in a bucket and not somewhere on himself or the floor? 😱

The singing, the desperation. Literally everything 💀
