Critical Reception

Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes gives the ninth season 70%, based on 10 reviews. The critics consensus reads, "Shameless enters its ninth season on a tight budget of fresh stories left to tell, but still finds some rich new notes of characterization -- all while gracefully bidding adieu to Emmy Rossum."[38]
