Shameless

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Poor family in south side of Chicago with William H Macy as a drunk, alcoholic dad. 6 kids. The oldest of whom exists to try and prove Leisher wrong that you can be a super hot 21 year old woman and have a difficult life.

Lots of tits, lots of ass, too much peen.

Comedy-drama, they say, but a lot more drama than comedy. Somewhat ridiculous situations, few jokes.

That's why it's Hollywood.

Attractive white woman, particularly young ones, are the most advantaged people on Earth.

My 13 year olds watched this show. They seemed to like it, but got bored by it.

Whoa. My kids are sheltered.

Yeah, it's probably a little too much drama. The ratings drop off after S4, so was planning to go for 4 and drop it.

They don't have an older sibling and cousins who destroy any kind of shelter you build...

Young, attractive white women are the only demographic that can, at any time, bail on their life and set up shop in someone elses.

Admittedly a plot point in S1.

I went to the reddit sub for this show, and it just gets darker, and unhappier, and dramaier, and messier. I feel like I was lied to. I was promised boobs + comedy.

The oldest daughter is cute and gets naked a lot. But tbh the NSFW thread here has better content.

Otherwise...yeah we didn't make it past a season or two.

One thing that was cool about this show was seeing a friend of mine from high school in the credits.
