    Nothing but nihilistic filth and depravity. Every character lies, cheats, steals, and is involved in crime in one way or another. No one showcases any remorse for their actions. Non-stop sex and nudity and normalization of sex in front of children. Pedophilia undertones rule the day. The Muslim shop keeper is sleeping with a teenage boy and his brother doesn't even have any objections.Nothing but nihilistic filth and depravity.

The Muslim shop keeper is sleeping with a teenage boy and his brother doesn't even have any objections. Adult sex with teenagers is Normal on this show and a way of life. There is no depth to anything either. Just outrageous stupid anti-intellectual television contributing to the moral collapse of society. And I say this as a far left socialist atheist. This show is likely produced by pedophiles.… Expand

    Was a great show, but had to go into politics, showing how bad are white people, and how much they exploit and destroy everyone's life. Sad to see such a good show go bad.

    Feminist sucks. The series about **** lesbians, drug addicts, alcoholics, thieves, whores and other **** While all this is served as the norm. Propaganda of all the bad that can be in a person. People are being held by cattle and fed with similar content.

    Il ne faut douter de rien et ne pas manquer d'air ni de prétention mal placée pour sortir une série pareille qui n'a pas d'autre but que d'attirer l'attention... désespérément. La provocation, l'irrévérence, l'insolence (?) l'humour (?!) ne sont ici que des pétards mouillés !

    On ne trouve même pas trace de cynisme ni d'ironie quelconque dans cette famille de mange-merdes pourtant bien    Il ne faut douter de rien et ne pas manquer d'air ni de prétention mal placée pour sortir une série pareille qui n'a pas d'autre but que d'attirer l'attention... désespérément.

    On ne trouve même pas trace de cynisme ni d'ironie quelconque dans cette famille de mange-merdes pourtant bien coiffés et bien habillés, censés représenter les "misérables" de l'Amérique moderne (?!) ! tout sonne faux, tout est bidon de A à Z et ce n'est jamais drôle, même au quarantième degré... c'est juste bête, totalement stupide et pitoyable.

    ça sent l'opportunisme à plein nez, la réclame de bas étage pour la provoc' à deux balles ; il y a en fait une expression anglo-saxonne qui peut résumer parfaitement la situation : cette série est une "attention whore", rien de plus. C'est en outre d'un ennui assez ahurissant, car très répétitif : cette smala de trous du cul n'est jamais crédible une seule seconde et gesticule dans le vide, voulant se donner finalement un côté trop "cool" et "branché".

    Une honte que cette série donc, pour sa nullité omniprésente et pire encore, une insulte à la vraie pauvreté, celle des vrais misérables de notre époque aux Etats-Unis ou ailleurs.    … 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.

    1) A father beating to blood a kid is not fun, never
    2) A kleptomaniac pathological liar about 10 years old is not fun
    3) A devious bully child, not helped but encouraged in violent behaviours by his family is not fun
    and
    4) A person sitting on the WC is not hilarious

    let me tell you something, watching poor people swear and carry on and have babies in reality is not entertainment. leave it to the professionals shameless (family guy and south park) step away from TV and don't ever come back.

    Sad show. They stay using the LORDS name in vain which is so wack. If you can't entertain an audience without disrespecting JESUS then you clearly have no talent!

    Shameless also has a rough and original charisma of its own, emphasizing as it does the freedom and not merely the deprivation of its family of quasi orphans.

    Now and then Shameless sloughs off its mostly self-imposed constraints and fires on all cylinders, observing economic hardship, drunken tomfoolery and sexual shenanigans with a keen eye for class specifics.

    Exec producers John Wells (ER), Andrew Stearn (The West Wing), and Paul Abbott (Cracker), adapting Abbott's original Brit version, waste the talents of Macy, Joan Cusack, and Emmy Rossum (Mystic River), among others, and you'll waste your time straining to enjoy it.
