Shameless (UK)

Shameless is an American comedy-drama television series which airs on Showtime. This remake of the British series is set in Chicago, although taped in Los Angeles, with the exterior scenes shot in Chicago.[1]

Premise

The series depicts the dysfunctional family of Frank Gallagher, a single father of six children. While he spends his days drunk or in search of misadventures, his kids learn to take care of themselves.

The show's producers sought to distinguish it from previous American working-class shows by highlighting how Frank's alcoholism affects his family.[2] Paul Abbott, the show's creator, has said, "It's not My Name Is Earl or Roseanne. It's got a much graver level of poverty attached to it. It's not blue collar; it's no collar."[2] When John Wells, the showrunner, began pitching the show, he had to fight efforts to place the show in the South or in a trailer park. He explained, "We have a comedic tradition of making fun of the people in those worlds. The reality is that these people aren't 'the other' – they're people who live four blocks down from you and two blocks over".[2]

Development

HBO began developing an American version of Shameless after striking a deal with John Wells in January 2009.[3] By October 2009 the development had moved to Showtime. John Wells Productions taped a pilot episode for the cable network in December 2009.[4] William H. Macy stars in the lead role as Frank Gallagher.[5] Also joining the cast were former Dragonball Evolution co-stars Emmy Rossum as Fiona and Justin Chatwin as Steve.[6][7] Paul Abbott, whose semi-autobiographical telescript became the pilot episode for the original UK version, is credited as an executive producer on the U.S. version.[2]

In April 2010, Showtime green-lit the series with a 12-episode order.[8] In late August Joan Cusack was cast as Sheila, a romantic interest for Frank, replacing Allison Janney, who portrayed the role in the pilot.[9] Production began in mid-September.[9]

A preview of the pilot aired on December 12, 2010, after the Season 5 finale of Dexter. The first season officially began airing on Showtime on Sunday, January 9, 2011.[10] It is filmed in the North Lawndale[11] community area of Chicago[12] and Burbank, California, at Warner Bros. Studios. Before the cold open, a main character breaks the fourth wall and berates the viewer who missed previous episodes by identifying plot points relevant to the current episode.

Production

Initial shooting of the second season began on July 5, 2011[13] and premiered January 8, 2012.[14] The series was renewed for a third season renewal on February 1, 2012,[15] and initial shooting began June 27, 2012.[16] The third season premiered on January 13, 2013, and two weeks later on January 29, Shameless was renewed for a fourth season,[17] which premiered January 12, 2014. On February 18, 2014, the series was renewed for a fifth season.[18] Production on the first episode began on July 3, 2014 with the first episode table read,[19] with initial shooting for the season beginning on July 8, 2014.[20][21] The series was renewed for a sixth season on January 12, 2015.[22] Shameless was renewed for a 12-episode seventh season on January 12, 2016.[23] Season 7 is set to premiere on October 2, 2016. The series was initially set in Chicago's Canaryville neighbourhood on the South Side,[24][25][26] but as of season 6 the Back of the Yards neighbourhood was stated to be the location of the Gallagher household.[27]

Music

The theme song for Shameless is "The Luck You Got" by indie rock group The High Strung. The majority of the music featured throughout the series is generally from indie rock bands. The pilot episode made use of music from artists such as Cream, Spoon, Say Hi, 3OH!3 featuring Ke$ha, The Vines, The Moog and LMFAO.[28] The show has also featured music from Let's Wrestle, Eels, The Blue Van, Cake, Jimmy Eat World, Alien Crime Syndicate, and Freeplay Music. Music from The High Strung, Soho3, Say Hi and The High Planes Drifters can be heard multiple times throughout the show. A few songs being "We Are The Men You'll Grown To Love Soon", "Silly Boy" and Beginners Luck. Capital Cities has been heard on the show with their song "Who's That Dude Pt. 1", as well as Johnny Foreigner with "Absolute Balance" and Bosshouse Music with "Chicago Blues". The songs "Vireo's Eye" (episode 3) and "Inch of Dust" (episode 7) by Synthpop band Future Islands were also used in the first season. The last episode of season one featured two songs by The Diner with the first being "Indie Dreams" and with "Sun and Soil" being the second. In promotion for the second season premiere the entire cast of shameless sang their own version of a Christmas Carol "except this one dings grandma’s holiday turkey and suggests the best route home in case you partake in too much holiday cheer" entitled Shameless: Christmas Carol.[29][30][31] It can also be found on the special features of the season 2 DVD featurette.[32] The singer Marina and the Diamonds has also been referenced on the show, in a text by Debbie Gallagher.

Main characters

Main article: List of Shameless (U.S. TV series) characters
  • William H. Macy as Frank Gallagher, the father of seven children. He is a deadbeat alcoholic and drug addict who relies on schemes and stealing to survive. He is the biological father of Fiona, Lip, Debbie, Liam and Carl— but not Ian. He pays little attention to his children but can display care and concern for them in drastic circumstances. He often pontificates about political and social issues, yet spends most of his time developing schemes to cheat the system and take advantage of others in order to get money.
  • Emmy Rossum as Fiona Gallagher, the eldest daughter of the Gallagher clan. She is attractive, intelligent, and resilient. All of the responsibility of keeping her siblings safe becomes hers, and hence she dropped out of high school in her junior year. Though often exhausted by her obligations, she takes care of the family to the best of her ability. Prone to selflessness, and striving for everyone in her family to reach success, Fiona sometimes needs to be reminded to look out for her own happiness and well-being.
  • Justin Chatwin as Jimmy Lishman, also known as Steve Wilton and Jack, a young man who relentlessly pursues Fiona, going to great lengths to win her over, beginning with chasing the man who grabbed her purse in a nightclub on the night they met. He owns expensive things and throws money around liberally, which Fiona finds disconcerting until she discovers that he really steals cars for a living. It is later discovered that his real name is Jimmy and he comes from a wealthy family.
  • Jeremy Allen White as Philip "Lip" Gallagher, the second Gallagher child. He was a straight-A student throughout high school and uses his intelligence in various money-making schemes. Despite his above-average intelligence, he's fairly self-destructive; he smokes cigarettes and marijuana, drinks alcohol, pursues casual sexual encounters with many girls, and even steals vehicles. Lip has had a few love affairs through the series, including Karen Jackson and later Mandy Milkovich who applied to several colleges for Lip without his knowledge, winning him a full scholarship at one or more. After Lip found out that Mandy hit Karen with her car, causing Karen to become emotionally and mentally challenged, Lip dumped her.
  • Cameron Monaghan as Ian Gallagher, the third of the Gallagher siblings. He is Monica's but not Frank's biological child. He participates in Army JROTC at school, and is gay, the latter fact he withholds from some of the family. Still under age, he enlists in the Army under his brother Lip's identity. At the end of season 4, Ian is diagnosed with bipolar disorder, a mental illness his mother Monica has been diagnosed with. He has had a few affairs through the series, the most intense and long-lasting with Mickey Milkovich, the violent and supposedly homophobic redneck neighbor.
  • Emma Kenney as Debbie Gallagher, the fourth Gallagher child. "Debs" is precocious, intent on making a positive impression, willing to cover for others. She is very mature in some ways and therefore has trouble making friends with people her own age. Debbie is also physically unimpressive and self-conscious. In her teen years, Debbie becomes more rebellious, disrespectful, and secretive, eager to finally have a boyfriend and lose her virginity.
  • Ethan Cutkosky as Carl Gallagher, the second-youngest Gallagher child who shares a room with older brothers Lip and Ian, who try to keep their more-adult interests from him. Carl is often in trouble at school for attacking other students and not obeying the rules. He displays several psychopathic tendencies such as mutilating his toys and killing stray animals. His bond with Frank is strengthened after Frank convinces him he has cancer (for one of his schemes — later Carl was "cured"), and Carl helps him stay in the van parked in the Gallagher backyard after being kicked out.
  • Brennan Kane Johnson and Blake Alexander Johnson, then later Brenden Sims and Brandon Sims, as Liam Gallagher, the youngest of the Gallagher children. He is black, despite having two white parents, due to a dominant black gene the Gallaghers acquired from Frank's grandmother. He is delayed in verbal and emotional growth, and the whole family dotes on him. In season 4, Liam unwittingly ingests cocaine and is hospitalized, possibly suffering brain damage.
  • Shanola Hampton as Veronica Fisher, the Gallaghers' neighbor and Fiona's best friend and confidante; she is in a relationship with Kevin Ball. Always willing and able to lend a hand, Veronica pursued a medical career until she was fired from the hospital for stealing medical supplies. She currently works as a caregiver at a nursing home and freelances on her webcam. In Season 2, Veronica discovers it will be unlikely for her to bear children due to pelvic inflammatory disease. Her mother, Carol, becomes pregnant by Kev - consented to and arranged by Veronica - to act as a surrogate. Then, Veronica soon discovers she is pregnant with triplets herself - however, one fetus was resorbed in utero. When her mother gave birth to a baby boy and realized she was emotionally attached to the baby, she decides to keep him for herself. Veronica later delivers two baby girls.
  • Steve Howey as Kevin Ball. Kevin is the bartender and owner of the Alibi Room and the Gallaghers' neighbor and friend. He lives with and is in a happy relationship with Veronica, though he is technically married to another woman who previously left him. He is dyslexic and grew up in foster care, living with several families. To keep his bar from going bankrupt, Kev allows Mickey to run a prostitution ring and a breast milk dispensary.
  • Joan Cusack as Sheila Jackson. Shelia is an agoraphobic germophobe, Karen's mother, and Eddie's widow. Sheila developed her conditions when Karen was young and has tried for years to overcome her afflictions. Sheila is a kind and caring person, if a clueless. She euthanized Frank's mother by smothering her with a pillow.
  • Isidora Goreshter as Svetlana Fisher, whom Mickey Milkovich is forced to marry after she becomes pregnant with their son Yevgeny. A former prostitute, she later works at the Alibi Room and helps Veronica and Kevin take care of their twins. She marries Veronica to keep her residency in the United States.

Broadcast

Shameless premiered on January 9, 2011 in the United States, becoming Showtime's highest-rated series debut on record across the network's target demographic. The first episode of the series generated 982,000 unique viewers, and was Showtime's largest audience for a series premiere since Dead Like Me in 2003.

The fourth episode airing January 30, "Casey Casden", posted 1.45 million total viewers, making Shameless the cable channel's best-performing first-year drama. Defying the usual downward trend following a premiere, the series built on its initial audience, becoming number one in its time slot among adults aged 18 through 49. Subsequent episodes' audiences fluctuated between a million and 1.14 million viewers. The March 27, 2011 season finale, "Father Frank, Full Of Grace," drew an audience of 1.157 million.

The third season's premiere episode, "El Gran Cañon" (airing January 13, 2013), drew 2 million viewers, becoming the show's highest rated episode to date. It has since maintained average ratings of just below 2 million viewers throughout the remainder of its episodes.

Reception

Critical reception

Tim Goodman of The Hollywood Reporter said that "Shameless is excellent, compelling television from the first moment. As long as it stays true to the roots of the original, it's going to be essential viewing". The show's first season score on Metacritic is a 66 of 100, which is a generally favorable review. The second season score on Metacritic is a 76 of 100, indicating increasingly favorable reviews.[33] Tom O'Neill of the Los Angeles Times reported on the Emmy buzz about Shameless, especially with respect to the performance of Emmy Rossum, stating "she didn't have much Emmy buzz after Shameless debuted in January, but that changed after she gave powerhouse turns in such episodes as 'But at Last Came a Knock'".[34] BuddyTV ranked Shameless #8 on its list of 2011's best new TV shows.[35] Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes gave the first season a 'fresh' rating of 74% based on 31 reviews, with the critical consensus "Shameless is a dark, urban dramedy that overcomes its leaps of logic thanks to fantastic casting, intriguing ambiance, and shock value." Seasons 2-5 each have a 100% rating as of January 27, 2015.[36]
