Shameless

I watched this last night. The dad had me rolling dude is a fucking drunk for real. The funny think about the show is that i know families that have to same drama that's on the show.. We will see how the season goes on.

william h macy is kinda annoying to me but i might give this a shot

I didnt want to like it, due to major over hype. Just got through with it, solid show & like Bigface I think we all knew or know a family like that making the best out of the worst in life. Will see where ep 2 takes us.


Im know its a total coincidence but the next show in the block, "Episodes" is about a british show that gets remade by the states. Its a lil dry.

I liked it quite a bit. I had heard of the BBC show and that it was good but just never got around to checking it out.

Emmy Rossum would get it too, hard.

I watched the British original on Sundance, it was funny.

No I haven't.

Sadly enough I've seen stuff similar to this in real life quite a few times. Can't afford to fix your toilet but yet you just bought a X-box 360. Makes complete sense.

I know this. I'm just saying it's not unusual for people who have things most people would get fixed to spend money on things they don't need.

Also one of them stole a bike at the start or the show. Who is to say that the iPod atleast isn't stolen as well?

I thought the show was cool. I haven't seen episode 2 yet. It's a reach on most fronts but not to say some version of this story isn't real.

The washing machine worked, did it not? Why is it such a stretch that there's a flat panel tv in the home with a front loading washer in the house that still works but wobbles like crazy? The family is only marginally responsible. Why is the girl going out and buying a dress (even though she intends to return it) when they're short on money for bills? Why is the gay kid buying that dude kash baseball tickets when his family was probably broke and how did no one notice he had new stuff like new shoes when they were almost surely broke? A lot of things didn't add up, it's a fake story.

I'm surprised more wasn't said about the American version of the office being a ripoff of the british version, especially when the british version was funnier. They acknowledged it though and I guess that's all that matters

^go on imdb & you'd see a shitload of threads about the uk office

this pilot was pretty good. they need to roll the dad over on his stomach so he doesnt asphyxiate on his own vomit. waiting for a copy of episode 2

episode 2 is way better and funnier then there first. good show though.

Dude plays that part well. Very believable.

I just watched the first one and have no reason to watch the second one.
Just didn't do it for me.

good show. looking forward to 3rd episode tomorrow

Still haven't checked this out, but I'd still recommend the British version.
