Shameless - Season 2
It’s summertime in Chicago, and the Gallaghers are cooking up fresh ways to the same tricks. When Frank Gallagher is not at the bar spending what little money the family has, he is stirring up trouble. But he is not the only one who keeps things interesting. Fiona is thrown for a loop when Steve returns from Rio with a Brazilian wife. Karen and Sheila tussle over Karens new husband Jody, a good-hearted but weird guy she met in Sexaholics Anonymous. Good thing the family has Fiona, the eldest daughter who dutifully keeps them all together, even as she tries to figure out where and how she fits in to her own life. It is never a dull moment for the crazy, dysfunctional Gallagher clan.

Shameless definitely isn't your conventional comedy. In fact, almost nothing about this series is conventional. That's part of the appeal.

The Gallaghers have heart, soul and most importantly, something to say.

it's nearly impossible to tell from one episode to the next whether Shameless is building up to something or the writers are just doing playful riffs on the Gallagher world that are intended to stand alone.

There is nothing quite like Shameless on television today.

It's easy to give Shameless the benefit of the doubt, because, at its best, the show is a lot of fun.
January 08, 2012
The show's disparate pieces - the filthy comedy and the desperation, the joy and the depression - hold together just as well.

The Gallagher kids, especially the older ones, have enough heart to keep me invested and I was glad to have them back.
