   You will love this show, every character is his own world, from crazy, spaced out kids, to troublesome teenagers, to drunk and sexually twisted adults. Highly recommended, can't wait for season 2.… Expand

   Shameless is both funny and touching, sometimes going over the top in both directions. It's the performances of the cast, especially Emmy Rossum and Jeremy Allen White that keeps me coming back for more. The show can be irresponsible at times, but mostly it's just a lot of fun.… Expand

   Whilst i liked this show, the music editing, acting and direction was really annoying and cheesy, I much prefer the UK version and would recommend it to anyone especially fans of this US version, i find it seems so much more realistic in the uk version (for one people are more normal looking than hollywood looking), the direction and narrative is much more stylish and gritty. characters such as kev, frank, shiela and steve are much better played. the parts people seem to like in this US show are soo much better in the UK version in my opinion. However i may be slightly biased as i grew up beside a UK council estate and met characters and was a part of communities similar to these, and thus you may not relate to it the same way i do, similar to perhaps my relation to this show relative to that of US viewers. Also the same could be said for the office UK and US versions however i can understand why people would prefer the US version as it is a totally different sense of humour and the UK in so cringe worthy at times its impossible to watch without ripping your own face off, however the UK version of shameless has the same sense of humour and so far the same plot more or less, just better done. Overall i think it is a good adaptation but if you like it i would urge you to try out the original.… Expand

   It was painful sitting through the Pilot, my friends told me it was so awesome and I feel completely let down. I kept telling myself maybe it will get better but it really didn't. I stomached maybe 20 minutes into the second episode and couldnt take anymore.… Expand
