What is Shameless About?

SHAMELESS is based on the long-running hit UK series which follows a far-from-stellar working class patriarch of an unconventional Chicago brood of six motley kids (headed by eldest sibling) who keep the home afloat while he’s out drinking and carousing.

When Frank Gallagher’s not at the bar spending what little money the family has, he’s stirring up trouble. But he’s not the only one who keeps things interesting. Lip uses his smarts to get what he can, Ian’s exploring alternative sexuality, Debbie’s got her hand in the donation jar, Carl’s breaking every rule he can find, and toddler Liam’s just along for the ride. 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.
